What's your favorite lyric from a song?

Some shorties but goodies from John Hiatt’s big bag of similies;

“ ...we rolled that Camaro like a cowboy cigarette...”
“...river winding like an old man’s fiddle...”
”...she was smiling like the last survivor in a lifeboat...”

Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it,
Do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils,
Can you heave it left & right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost overnight?

"Let's go to bed or go to war".....

"and all the fish
they lay in dirty water dying
have they got you hypnotized"

"That's The Way" Led Zeppelin

LZ III is probably my favorite album by them and that track especially...second only to Tangerine.  
Lyrics-wise though, somebody got to 'splain That's the Way to me.  Guess the same could be said about Tangerine.

The album isn't all that consistent but ranks up there for me on the strength of several standout tracks including That's the Way, Tangerine, Gallows Pole and Since I've Been Loving You.
