I'd sing the words without any idea what they were messing up a few of the words but fewer than you'd expect. Maybe it's because I was in choir at a young age until early adulthood and in addition to reading notes you read and sing sounds not words. So for example in the chorus of What Do You Do With A Drunken Sailor the lyrics are something like 'Way-ho and up she rises,' but on the sheet music it could be 'Waaaaa- ehyyyyy o- HO.' It doesn't look like words, it's sounds. So singing pop music I used to just hear and reproduce the sound without thinking about what I was saying much. Super clear lyrics yeah but even a little hard to hear I didn't used to.
