What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...
arthursmuck
...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
And here's to all the strong ones
Who don't care if they win
The kind I'll never see again

Steve Winwood/Arc of a Diver/Slowdown Sundown
