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

"Last time I was sober, man I felt bad
Worst hangover that I ever had"

Dire Straits-Heavy Fuel
She's a tongue twisting storm she will come to the show tonight praying to the light machine she wants my honey not my money she's a funky thigh collector layin on 'lectric dreams
"Where do you come from, young man?"
"I come from The Bronx, your honor."
"I sentence you to 15 years!"

The Judge Sure is Funky--J. Geils Band

(And I'm originally from there, too....)
"They'd like to make it
With my big black dog,
But they just
Don't know how to ask"

Baby Ice Dog--Blue Oyster Cult
