Misheard lyrics

Right, I'm going to open a new thread and see what other lyrics don't make sense, even if they do make sense after all like NOTB, or if they don't, like this sentence.
 
"So, understand, the wasted time always searching for those wasted years"

They're coming over the hill they've come to attack!
They're coming in for the kill there's no turning back
Invaders... Fighting!
Invaders..Where are they?!?!?

Took me longer than I'd like to admit before I found out that he was screaming Marauding...
 
"Sunrise has gone, naffing our desires"

(A bit Norman Stanley Fletcher, for those of you old Brits who might remember).
 
It's the only reason why a song about the Second World War would involve Fokkers.
