What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...

@n80...Excuse me, while I kiss the sky...…….( meaning, he was very high ). Easily heard through a good system....Enjoy ! MrD.
I suspect that n80's post was said tongue-in-cheek, as the non-lyrics he quoted could indeed be how the real lyrics are heard when the songs are listened to in a casual manner. A couple of additional examples in a similar vein:

"Oh A Tree In Motion" -- Johnny Tillotson
"I'm Your P---- (um, Venus), I'm Your Fire" -- Shocking Blue

I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes

@almarg I do not believe it was tongue in cheek. I always heard it as kiss the sky, but I had an excellent phono front end, and system, as I indicated. And not to mention, I, too, was kissing the sky back then. I know about the mondegreen theory. Enjoy ! MrD.
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawling out as I was a-crawling in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
