Best lines in a song


There has been a long-running thread here of 'Best quotes' but maybe it would be interesting to find out folks' favorite lines from songs. To keep it on some sort of track, let's have a few ground rules.

- Attribution is required, who sang it (or wrote it) and where can we hear it?
- Shorter is better, four lines maximum, a verse. These should be words of wisdom that can be summoned for inspiration in social emergencies.
- If you're an opera fan, you're welcome to post in Italian, just don't expect many high fives from the monolingual among us.

I'll throw out a couple for starters:

When you're rockin' and a rollin' you can't hear your momma call.
Little Richard - Good Golly, Miss Molly

All I want in this life of mine is some good clean fun.
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run.
Little Feat - Fat Man in the Bathtub

This from Bjork, one of Natalie Portman's favorite and mine too:

Possibly maybe probably love

How can you offer me love like that?
my heart's burned
how can you offer me love like that?
I'm exhausted - leave me alone!

Possibly maybe probably love

Since we broke up
I'm using lipstick again
I'll suck my tongue
in remembrance of you

I love this girl, she is so crazy and creative it makes me believe she's beautiful.

"It's not the side effects of the cocaine,
I'm thinking that it must be love"

David Bowie
"Dinah-Moe watched from the edge of the bed
With her lips just a-twitchin' an' her face gone red
Some drool rollin' down
From the edge of her chin
As she spied the condition
Her sister was in"...

Frank Zappa, "Dinah-Moe Hum"
The only thing I'll ever ask of you,
you've got to promise not to stop when I say, when.

Everlong
