Best single line lyric in a song?

[Samsacks]

"An American Christian. God-damn!"

Dixie Flyer, Randy Newman

 

[AbsintheFather]

I wrote him back a letter and I told him it was not the
Perfect country and western song because he hadn't said
Anything at all about momma or trains or trucks or prison or gettin' drunk.

A touching little Steve Goodman number . . . I love that song


In a similar vein . . .

Lord I have loved some ladies and I have loved Jim Beam
And they both tried to kill me in 1973.
When that doctor asked me, Son how did you get in this condition?
I said, hey sawbones, I'm just carrying on an ole family tradition.

 

[y=mx+b]

We had our words, a common spat
So I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat.

Clapton- Wonderful Tonight

I just love the way this song flows


It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

You captivate me, something about you has got me
I was lonely now you make me feel alive
Will you be mine tonight?

You say I'm a kid
My ego is big
I don't give a shit

 

[Saint Peter]

and as my dad pulled in the driveway
I did my best to just stand strong
mama found my bong

 

[fun_Kim]

All day long I dream about sex...

 

[AbsintheFather]

Well, how do you spell relief?
I just get D-R-U-N-K

[DesEsseintes]

"There are few signs more distressing than that/Of an Englishman in a baseball cap."

"Well, you'll work harder with a gun in your back/For a bowl of rice a day."

"Eleven mustachioed daughters running in a field of fat."

"She was into S&M and Bible Studies, not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me."

 

[Samsacks]

"Well, you'll work harder with a gun in your back/For a bowl of rice a day."

Viva Biafra!

I wouldn't be here if I hadn't been there and I wouldn't been there if I hadn't just turned...

Raining blood from a lacerated sky
Bleeding its horror, creating my structure
Now I shall reign in blood!

[grunabona]

But I was tossed high by love
I almost never came down
Only to land here
Where love's no longer found
Where I'm no longer bound
And I can let go now

Michael McDonald - I Can Let Go Now

 

[albertaboy]

Not much of a Rap fan, but this song really gets me going

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo


No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged
I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed

 

[BoyNextDoor]

When you crawl out of this self delusion
You're going to need a soul transfusion

 

[ShyGuy1855]

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

 

[lovetoread]

Oh, you turned your back on tomorrow
'Cause you forgot yesterday.
I gave you my love to borrow,
But you just gave it away.

 

[AbsintheFather]

I say whip it
Whip it good

from Kid Rock - So Hott

I'm gonna fuck you like I'm never gonna see you again!
