"My god! What have I done?"

Talking Heads, Once in a Lifetime

Love Talking Heads!

"And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress
And she was moving very slowly, rising up above the earth
Moving into the universe, and she's drifting this way and that
Not touching the ground at all, and she's up above the yard."

It's only life after all. ~ Indigo Girls

 

[Kenrychard]

"They're taking the hobbits to Isengard" Oh, Wait, that's the ONLY line in the song.

[Justlookintoo]

Leon Russell
Song for You

 

[Inducker]

‘O Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the stars above
Gonna love ya till I die’

 

[Boonerboy]

A young youth, rocking the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
Only way I begin to G off was drug loot //
Figured out I went the wrong route
So I got with a sick-ass clique and went all out
Catching keys from across seas
Rolling in MPV's every week we made forty G's

Raekwon

 

[BrokenBarbie]

“She tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne, and she cut your hair, and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah…”

 

[Gln1517]

Is this the real life
Or is it a fantasy

 

[Matt12191982]

"Strangers passing in the street, by chance, two separate glances meet, and I am you and what I see is me"
Pink Floyd - Echoes

 

[Lorilei]

I see my folks are getting on
And I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me
And it makes us both feel strange - Nick of Time, Bonnie Raitt

 

[TallMan69]

"Seasons don't fear the reaper"

More Cowbell.

[TallMan69]

I told him I am the flower, you are the seed
We walked in the garden, we planted a tree
Don't try to find me, please don't you dare
Just live in my memory, you'll always be there

 

[SensualKat78]

A good woman will pick you apart
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart. But you may be offended and you may be afraid. But don't walk away, don't walk away. We made love on the living room floor. With the noise in the background from a televised war. And in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say...If we walk away, they'll walk away

Not a single liner but it's one of my favs..

 

[gran_pron]

"Please you must forgive me, I am old but still a child" somehow more relevant a couple of years since first hearing it

 

[Boat1]

Step through the bedroom, in the suitcase on the left, you'll find my favorite axe....

 

[MissMaidenMinx]

Step through the bedroom, in the suitcase on the left, you'll find my favorite axe....

Don't look so frightened this is just a passing phase, one of my bad days

 

[Boat1]

Don't look so frightened, this is just a passing phase, one of my bad days....

 

[Boat1]

Don't look so frightened this is just a passing phase, one of my bad days

It seems we had a simultaneous thing this morning. LMAO!

 

[Boat1]

More than a single line, but I love this one...

"And when they found our shadows
Grouped 'round the TV sets
They ran down every lead
They repeated every test
They checked out all the data on their lists
And then
The alien anthropologists admitted they were still perplexed
But on eliminating every other reason for our sad demise
They logged the only explanation left
This species has amused itself to death"

 

[Massacre_]

"I know I shouldn't call you, but it's raining,
And you keep saying, that you're all alone,
But I ain't with these games you keep on playing,
You gone or staying?
Make up your mind or let me go"
To be fair, I love the entire song.
