best lyric from a song

"I'm drownin' in the backseat of a '61 Bel Air...I gotta mouth full of your hair a hand full of skin."

Old 97's...

"I would like you on a long black leash
I will parade you down the high streets"
'SEX DWARF'~Soft Cell

"Don't bogart that joint..."
many

"You know I've got some bad ideas... burning deep in my black heart. Evil is as evil's gonna do... and you know I try to do my part."

-Blood for Blood

Why do you love me?
Why do you need me?
Always and forever
We met in a chat room
Now our love can fully bloom
Sure, the World Wide Web is great
But you, you make me "salvivate"
Yes, I love technology
But not as much as you, you see
But I still love technology
Always and forever
Our love is like a flock of doves
Flying up to heaven above
Always and forever
Always and forever
Yes our love is truly great
Always and forever...

off the top of my head:

I'm yearning
I'm burning
I feel love's wheels turning
Like a moth on love's bright light
I will get burned
each and every night
I'm dying to
The sun will shine
The bottom line
I follow you

-Depeche Mode

she's leaving me
because she really wants to

and she'll be happy when she's gone...

Lyle Lovette (gotta love his honesty)

Every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
and ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl
Love and hate tattooed across the knuckles on his hands
Hands that slap his kids around 'cause they don't understand
how Death or Glory becomes just another story.

Every gimmick-hungry yob digging gold from rock n roll
Grabs the mike to tell you he'll die before he's sold
But I believe in this and its been tested by research
He who fucks nuns will later join the church

The Clash "Death or Glory"

I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die

Johnny Cash "Folsom Prison Blues"

I woke up this morning
smiling with the rising sun
three little birds
come to my doorstep
singing sweet songs
of melodies pure and true
(I can't remember the rest)
Bob Marley "Three Little Birds"

"Your son is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death."

- "Time" by Pink Floyd

Hopefully, this redems this thread (somewhat).

"For all the kids who'd rather fight than fuck, I refuse to sing."

Really Red - I refuse to sing
