Best single line lyric in a song?

[Lord Pmann]

"I can't take my eyes off you"

Damien Rice- The Blower's Daughter

 

[STRC]

As I was saying to Kippies, for me it's either "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die" by Johnny Cash or "two lovers missing the tranquillity of solitude" by The Jam.

What you got?

"You can check out, but you can never leave"! Hotel California

 

[Saint Peter]

this ain't no beer joint
its a tear joint

 

[Pookie]

I fooled around and fell in love.

 

[Adre]

Hey, I can bleed as well as anyone but I need someone to help me sleep

 

[Samsacks]

Somethin' 'bout the wrinkle in your forehead
Tells me there's a fit 'bout to get thrown
If I get the van out of the ditch before mornin'
Ain't nobody got to know bout what I done

 

[RobDownSouth]

Satan sent her from the bowels of hell
I should have recognized old Jezbel
I surrendered to the urges felt
She popped the buckle on my bible belt

 

[Lord Pmann]

Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive.

Iris by GGD

"Hey (hey) What's the matter with your feel right?
Don't you feel right, baby?
Hey, oh, yeah, get it from the main line, alright
I said-a find it, find it, darling, love it
If you like it, yeah-eh
Hey (hey) It's your business if you want some
Take some, get it together, baby"

[Lancecastor]

I believe in this
And its been tested by research
He who fucks nuns
Will later join the church

"Death or Glory"
The Clash

...nails the spirit of the GB to a tee.

 

[KapitalK]

10 P. M., I feel the rain coming down
My face feels the wet, my mind the storm
Flashing lights as people race to find shelter from the pour
Moving silent, through the streets, they're mine, they're mine

 

[Adre]

"Hey (hey) What's the matter with your feel right?
Don't you feel right, baby?
Hey, oh, yeah, get it from the main line, alright
I said-a find it, find it, darling, love it
If you like it, yeah-eh
Hey (hey) It's your business if you want some
Take some, get it together, baby"

Er, that's seven lines.

 

[cowslinger64]

When your lip comes out and touches your chin, I don't know what I did but I won't do it again.

 

[toubab]

Er, that's seven lines.

Wanted to show context.

 

[Riles]

"I'd crawl to you baby,
And I'd fall at your feet.
I'd howl at your beauty,
like a dog in heat.
And I'd claw at your heart,
And I'd tear at your sheet.
I'd say please.
I'm your man."

 

[Saint Peter]

I'll tell all the chicks
I'm an astronaut
I bet that will get me laid

 

[lovetoread]

Underneath a setting sun
Something wicked your way comes
Who am I? Just a dream
Sent to take you, shake you, make you scream

Try to see - there - behind my eyes
Be in me - ah - you're hypnotized
Such a moon - rare - we shouldn't waste
Very soon - ah - I'll have a taste

 

[lovetoread]

She’s talking to angels,
Counting the stars
Making a wish on a passing car
She’s dancing with strangers,
Falling apart
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
In his arms, yeah, in his arms, yeah
Waiting for Superman

Oz never did give nothin to the Tin Man that he didn't already have.

"Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart."
