What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...
arthursmuck
yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
It's still gonna get you if don't do something
Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
by Dire Straits off "Communique"
...and dropping a barbell he points to the sky/ The sun's not yellow, it's chicken.
Well, lots of favorites. How about these?

"My old man, he's like a feudal lord
Got more lives than a cat
neser seen him quarrel with my mother evev once
things come alive or they fall flat"

"It's not always easy kicking someone out
Gotta wait a while -- it can be an unpleasant task
Sometimes sombody wants you to give something up
and tears or not, it's too much to ask."

Both from "Floater (too much to ask)" -- Bob Dylan

And

I got a cravin' love for blazing speed
Got a hopped up Mustang Ford
Jump into the wagon love, throw your panties on the board
I can write you poems, make a strong man lose his mind
I'm a pig without a wig
I hope you trat me kind"

from "High Water", again Bob Dylan
#1 It's a hard world to get a break in, all the good things have been taken...
#2 I got the house, I got the car, but I ain't got JACK!
#3 I'm not in love, so don't forget it, it's just a silly phase I'm goin' through... And the rest of the 10CC song.
Sonny
