Rock the Casbah misheard as Rock the cash-bar. I thought it was a song about people drinking and being punished for drinking. In my defense, I was 4, and sadly I knew what a cash-bar was.

My roommate used to think Jimi Hendrix sang “excuse me while I kiss this guy” until I explained it was “sky”.
Although in his defense years later I heard a live version where I’m pretty sure he changes it for a verse or two to “kiss this guy.”
You’re correct, he started occasionally singing “kiss this guy” live after someone pointed the mondegreen out to him and he found it really funny.
That’s such a popular one that there’s a misheard lyrics site named kissthisguy.com
Another popular one is There’s a bathroom on the right=There’s a bad moon on the rise.
