Do you have a faveorite lyric?
 

Not a song persay but a line or two in a song? I am a lyrics junkie..it is very rare I will like a song with junk lyrics even if it sounds otherwise good.

So, what are your lyrics?

"Think for yourself and feel the walls become sand beneath your feet." - Anybody Listening: Queensryche

Oh I agree with you... Life from Des'ree may sound very happy and sunny, but the lyrics are awful.

Piano Man from Billy Joel and Your Song from Elton John are the first two that come to mind. Time of Your Life from Green Day... And I can go on and on.

Favorite song lyric


"It's typical, create a world, a special place, of my designs" - chevelle

Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drown your sorrows
Then it floods away tommorow

Heal the world, make it a better place, for you and for me and the entire human race. By michael jacson

I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate

alanis morissette-uninvited

"50 uh, bentley uh", 50 Cent - How we do :error

"I don't need no one to tell me about heaven.
I look at my daughter and I believe.
I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth.
I can see the sunset and I believe."

--Heaven (by Live)

Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye.
Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess,
Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo gajoob.

-Beatles (John Lennon)

great thread sara, Im a lyric junkie too!!

I know some day youll have a beautiful life, I know youll be the sun in someone elses sky, but why, why cant it be mine? ~Black, Pearl Jam

"...I've seen everything imaginable
Pass before these eyes
I've had everything that's tangible
Honey you'd be surprised
I'm a sexual innuendo
In this burned out paradise
If you turn me on to anything
You better turn me on tonight..."

..."I see you standin' there
You think you're so cool
Why don't you just
Fuck off

Ya get nothin' for nothin'
If that's what ya do
Turn around bitch I got a use for you
Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
And I'm bored..."

I'm an 80s dude.....
mmm

that's a hard one....

Alphaville - Forever Young maybe.......

If I was eddie vedder
Would you like me any better?

Oh and those were lyric's by Guns and Roses -

Rocket Queen and It's So Easy

"Success is my only mothafuckin option, failure?s not"

Sometimes I let things get me down
People tell me that I've got no future
Not this time, I'm gonna prove them wrong
I'm gonna screw them all and beat the system
distinguish myself
From the rest of the flock
With my huge blue mohawk
I choose not to follow the norm
I'm as capable and more qualified than most
People, you've gotta face the fact
Realize that we can make a difference
Ignorance, the plague is everywhere
You know you gotta care about your freedoms
Single handedly
I will wage my war on a personal level
Everyday I will attack the establishment
Fishing without a license
And I will drink wine befoe it's time
Everything will be okay
Sit at home and watch television
Don't think anymore
No time for self expression
Keep me in the closet man, in the dark
Be a number, not a human
Number 201 report for duty, sir
This time...I'm gonna prove them wrong
This time...I'll show them that I'm strong
This time...I'll fight until the end
This time...just you and I my friend
This time...

When I?m gone
Don?t stop to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon. . . be not gone

I don't wanna see your face
I don't wanna hear your name
I don't wanna thing
Just stay away baby
Don't wanna know if you're alright
Or what you're doin' with your life
Don't wanna hear that you'll stay in touch maybe

I'll get by just fine
So if you're goin' then darlin' goodbye, goodbye

I have a number of them but this just came on my random play and reminded me how many times I have played it just to hear the words....it is my 'don't let the bastards get you down' song.

-

As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down
These heavy notion creep around
It makes me think
Long ago I was brought into this life a little lamb
A little lamb
Courageous, stumbling
Fearless was my middle name.
But somewhere there I lost my way
Everyone walks the same expecting me to step
The narrowpath they've laid
They claim to walk unafriad
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold my love me or leave me high.

Say "Keep withing the boundaries if you want to play."
Say "Contradiction only makes it harder."
How can I be what I want to be?
When all I want to do is strip away these stilled constraints
And crush this charage shred this sad masquerade
I don't need no persuading
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold my love me or leave me high.

If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go
I just want to hold my head up high
I don't care what I have to step over
I'm prepared to look you in the eye
Look me in the eye and if you see familiarity
Then celebrate the contradiction
Help me when I fall to walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold my love me or leave me high.
Walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold my love me or leave me high.

I've been thinking 'bout our fortune
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
For the love that's deep inside us now,
Is still the same.

And the sounds we make together
Is the music to the story in your eyes
It's been shining down upon me now
I realize
- Moody Blues, "The Story in Your Eyes"

Drifting home, caught by a gulf stream
Never gave a thought for tomorrow
Let tomorrow be, yeah
Let tomorrow be
- Johnny Rivers, "Summer Rain"

Aw, shut up, silly woman
Said the reptile with a grin
You knew darn well I was a snake
Before you took me in
- Al Wilson, "The Snake"

my own track lyrics are the best:

"cuz im like the devil, a universal hater

- im a hater by nico-t

or this one:
"my fucking mic skills rip bitches like 20 inch dildos

queer hoes like you, only way u got ill flows

while she sucks my dick at your own funeral
hell when the bitch is done i make her go to her own"
- sorry muthafuckers by nico-t
