Misheard song Lyrics

My mother asked me about the meaning of a songs lyrics that was playing over and over on the radio.
“smoke is sin, it brings violence”.
What she was hearing was a song by ABC
”when Smokey sings, I hear violins”.
the actual song being about Smokey Robinson.

I was absolutely puzzled until I figured out he heard "they just wanna" as "they test the water."
