One Direction fans are already confused over lyrics in new song 'Drag Me Down'

After Taylor Swift’s “Starbucks lovers” lyric fiasco, you would think pop-stars would learn to pronounce their words properly - it seems not.

One Direction dropped their new song "Drag Me Down" out of nowhere and fans are already confused over one particular line: “I got a river for a soul and baby you're a boat”.

In an attempt to rhyme the words “soul” and “boat”, Harry – and later on, Niall – both seem to say “bow” instead of "boat", which doesn’t really follow the aquatic theme of the line.

If you were mislead by their pronunciation, you're not alone. Even the lyric site Genius got it wrong.

Later in the song, Louis attempts to couple the words “left” and “best” which, on the surface, seems slightly bizarre but in practice seems to work, just. 

The single, the first from their up-coming album, is the first new 1D music for eight months. In the meantime the band have kept busy, with one member leaving while another is soon to become a father.

Check out the lyrics below.

I've got fire for a heart, I'm not scared of the dark

You've never seen it look so easy

I got a river for a soul and baby you're a boat (or bow)

Baby, you're my only reason

If I didn't have you there would be nothing left

The shell of a man that could never be his best

If I didn't have you I'd never see the sun

You taught me how to be someone, yeah

All my life you stood by me when no one else was ever behind me

All these lights that can't blind me

Nobody, nobody

Can drag me down
