Here's what the Cambridge Dictionary has to say on the matter: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/have-another-think-coming And here's an article by Professor of English at the University of Michigan on the subject: https://www.michiganpublic.org/arts-culture/2019-02-03/if-you-think-you-know-this-idiom-you-may-have-another-think-coming Judas Priest has popularised the corrupted version of this idiom.
