I dunno if there is another topic like this... But this is how it goes, first listen to the song(any song) then make a few adjustments with the lyrics and switch the word with a word that sounds alike. This is just like a self made parody!!!
Here's how to do it:
-Go to some other site(Youtube,ect.) to have visual lyrics or unless you know the whole song...
-Pause every time when the lyrics change, if there are repeats do (2x),(3x),(4x)... Ya know to save space.
-Try to switch the words with other homophones(words that sound alike)
Example:"People"------"Pee Pole" Lolz, right?
-Describe any place or sound explain that noun or
Example:"Ooog(Gorilla), in The Bay View(Some, place or thing)."
-No, it doesn't have to make any sense.
-Check to maximize(don't need to) as much as possible for changing the lyrics and also for anything missing.

For users listening for better way to listen is to open two pages on lyrics and one for the
lyrics that is posted.

The song I kinda demonstrated for this topic was System Of A Down- Sugar.

Please do not post any swearing words on your post!!!

I read an article on these once. They're called Mondegreens, a word coined after someone misheard a line from a Shakespeare play (or perhaps the line was misspoken) about a king who was murdered. I can't recall the first part of the line, but the last part was heard as "and Lady Mondegreen." The person who went on to coin the word "mondegreen" later learned that it actually went "and laid (buried) him on the green."

There are many such blunders. For example, a classic song about Davey Crockett says that he "killed him a bear when he was only three." But since Davey's common mispronunciation of the word "bear" made its way into the song, some have thought it said he was "killed in a bar when he was only three." (Uh, wait a minute. If he died at three, who was that guy playing a fiddle at the Alamo?)

Sorry if I'm not doing it exactly as per your request, but I thought you'd appreciate the info at least.
