Great lines from songs...
I've just been listening to Crash Test Dummies lately (God shuffeled his feet). Dont know if any of you remember them ? but i heard them when i was getting into music, and well the album has been on myPod for sometime now, and it's actually an awesome album. so i thought id start this thread.
It's on my "Album of the Week" playlist
so anywho, i was just curious as to what lines from songs actually struck a chord with you, just lines, not verses or whole songs, just lines.
Here are a couple off the top of my head:
1."Running into you like this without no warning,
is like catching a sniff of tequilla in the morning.
But i'll try...try to keep my food down."
Artist: Crash Test Dummies
Song: I Think Ill Disappear Now
2."And songs, are never quite the answer, just a soundtrack to a life."
Artist: Badly Drawn Boy
Song: You Were Right
Feed the list...
Cheers.

"She can kill with a smile
she can wound with her eyes
she can ruin your faith with her casual lies
she only reveals what she wants you to see
she hides like a child
but she's always a woman to me."
She's always a woman / Billy Joel
and then, there's the hick in me who quotes this one ...
"... Find a nest in the hills
wanna chill like Flynt
buy an old drop-top ...
... Cowboy baby
With the top let back and the sunshine shining
Cowboy baby
West coast chillin with the Boone's Wine
I wanna be a Cowboy baby
Ridin at night cause I sleep all day
Cowboy baby
I can smell a pig from a mile away"
Cowboy / Kid Rock
when completely pissed ...
"Freedom of speech - that's the motherf*cking ******** - you say the wrong thing, they lock your ass up quick ..."
Freedom of speech / Bodycount & Ice T ... old school.

Drummer Christian Tanna of I Mother Earth (heavily influenced by beat generation poetry), one lyric from each album:
Open and flow
Just swinging forever
Making love to the ground
'Cause it just feels better
-Levitate, from "Dig"
Every thirty days a light goes on
And brightens my back yard a yellow
Dying sun
I bite my tongue and swallow pride and blood
On some other plane I have
Become affected drawn and strange
I'm inclined to blame
My mother for dressing me like a girl
I don't know maybe that's kind of weird
-Like A Girl, from "Scenery & Fish"
A worn out old suitcase so what if it's broken, hopeless a
little odd in a splash of autumn on drugs holding all
the weight for me the weight of me
-Autumn On Drugs, from "Blue Green Orange"
So then I sink
In slow motion, can't hold my breath long
In water's deep aloha half-smile
It's swim or be sunken
And know there's no one to get me out
From under
So help me someone
-Hell And Malfunction, from "the Quicksilver Meat Dream"

Best Imitation of Myself by Ben folds
So I can be for you what you want to see,
I got the gesture and sounds, got the timing down,
It's uncanny, yeah you think it was me
You know I juggle one handed, do some magic tricks and
I do the best imitation of myself.
Don't want you hanging out with no one but me
Oh, but it's all the same, It comes from the same place,

I got a friend whose goal in life
Was to one day go down on Madonna
That's all he wanted
That was all
To one day go down on Madonna
And when my friend was thirty-four
He got his wish in Rome one night
He got to go down on Madonna
In Rome one night in some hotel
And ever since he's been depressed
'Cause life is **** from here on in
And all our friends just shake their heads
And say, "Too soon, too soon, too soon,
He went down on Madonna too soon
Too young, too young, too soon, too soon"

Just to place props appropriately, that's a Jonathan ("Something About Mary") Richman song. Covered most sublimely by the Burning Sensations on the "Repo Man" soundtrack.
Here's mine:
The new groups are not concerned
With what there is to be learned.
They got Burton suits -- ha, you think it's funny:
Turning rebellion into money.
All over, people changing their votes
Along with their overcoats.
If Adolf Hitler flew in today,
They'd send a limousine anyway.
-- "White Man in Hammersmith Palais," The Clash.
In no special order:
"Now the years are old and by me. They are rocking evenly, and I am older, but younger then I'll be. Thats not unusual, nor is it strange, after changes upon changes we are more or less, after changes we are more and less the same." Simon and Garfunkel: The Boxer
"And your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones turn into something beautiful and you know, you know I love you so. You know I love you so." Coldplay: Yellow
"Oh baby baby it's a wild world. It's hard to get by just upon a smile. Oh baby baby it's a wild world and I'll always remember you like a child girl." Cat Stevens: Wild World
"When you finally fly away I'll be hoping that I served you well, for all the wisdom of a lifetime no one can ever tell..." Rod Stewart: Forever Young
"If you told me to cry for you, I could. If you told me to die for you, I would." Bon Jovi: Always
"If you want to be free be free. 'Cause there's a million things to be, you know that there are." Cat Stevens: If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out
"Saw you last night dance by the light of the moon. Stars in your eyes, free from the life that you knew. Saw you last night, stars in the sky, smiled in my room.." Ben Folds: Magic
"Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong, but I ain't going to argue with you no more I've done it for too long." Cat Stevens: Maybe You're Right
"Why do we stay with lovers who we know down deep just aren't right? Why would we rather put ourselves through hell than sleep alone at night?" Jonathon Larson: Tick Tick Boom: Louder Than Words
"To love another person is to see the face of god.." Herbert Kretzmer: Les Miserables: Beggars At The Feast
That's enough for now..

"The Logical Song"
A couple of my favorites:
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. (Dylan--but I like almost all of his lyrics!)
I know it's only rock 'n roll, but I like it. (Rolling Stones)
This one's almost too good to post just a little. But, in the name of actually having my post *read*, I'm going to post a little of it.

Great song, the the BNL certianly did a fabulous cover, but if the point is to quote lyrics, you should attribute the man who wrote them and orginally performed the song, Bruce Cockburn. It is available on iTMS if you want to hear it.
Time to lower the tone with an amusing little ditty celebrating manhood...
Artiste: Raunchous Brothers
Song: Women's Lib
Wake up ***** it's time to face reality,
As far as I'm concerned you've got no ******* personality
Housework and sex is your only job,
You're not a worthwhile human being, you're just a fraud
You'll never be my equal so quit your nagging and your bitching,
Get on your knees and suck my **** then get back to the kitchen

Artiste: McLusky
Song: Lightsabre ****sucking Blues
I'm fearful I'm fearful I'm fearful of flying
And flying is fearful of me

A nice little ditty about the Internet...
Artiste: The Sisters of Mercy
Song: Detonation Boulevard
through the angel rain
through the dust and the gasolene
through the cruelty of strangers
to the neon dream
long distance information
just tell me where the manholes steam
a little girl waits on my station
with a new machine
- on Detonation Boulevard
I got wrecked out here
in a eldorado
I got wired, white-walled
this hot-wired sedan
I caught something weird in Ensenada
I've a brother of sorts in Torquemada
long distance information
disconnect me if you can
- on Detonation Boulevard
pink noise, white noise
and a violet whining sound
it burns inside this car
no cops, no signs, no left, no right
no stops, no turning round
well, you can run but you can't ride
you won't get far
- on Detonation Boulevard
- bang bang
through the angel rain
through the rust and the gasolene
through the cruelty of strangers
to the neon dream
long distance information
I'll take the same
I got the fuel for the transformation
I'm a naked flame

well, you can run but you can't ride
you won't get far
- on Detonation Boulevard
- bang bang
through the angel rain
through the rust and the gasolene
through the cruelty of strangers
to the neon dream
long distance information
I'll take the same
I got the fuel for the transformation
I'm a naked flame
- on Detonation Boulevard
- bang bang
1. "I'm not dumb but I can't understand
how she walks like a woman
and talks like a man,
Oh my Lola"
- The Kinks, "Lola"
2. "You never thought you'd get addicted -- just be cooler in an obvious way.
Well, I could say:
Shouldn't you have got a couple peircings and decided maybe that you were gay?
In a way,
I can't help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were insane,
with your pain.
But I never thought you'd be a junkie because heroin is so passe."
