broken telephone: 90s alt-rock edition

you know, i'd like to keep my cheeks dry today ("no rain," blind melon)
i hear as you know, i'd like to keep my jeans dry, jeanine.

you've got your ball. you've got your chain ("crush," dave matthews band)
i hear as you got shit-all. you got short-changed.

(how) do you incorporate typos, mis-hearings, and mis-readings into your work?

I wrote half of a poem (the right-side half) from my impression of the lyrics from a song I heard on TV. I'm not entirely sure what the lyrics were because I was paying attention to the show.
