"Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me."

That isn't the lyric.

What you hear
"Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me."
What's actually sung
"Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me." Bohemian Rhapsody — Queen (1975)

Why the ear defaults

"Bohemian Rhapsody" produces dozens of mondegreens; the surrounding Italian operatic terms ("Galileo," "Mama mia") strand English ears repeatedly.

Hear another line wrong?
