To ask you what your favourite Song Lyric is?

[YouBetterWerk]

Sitting here thinking about mine when I should be working and thought I would throw it out to the MN masses.

After much deliberation, it is a tie for me between:

'Jonnys in the Basement mixing up the medicine, I'm on the pavement thinking 'bout the government' - Dylan

And

'Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty'

Anything that pulls you up? Makes you laugh? Breaks your heart? Has great memories?

I can't believe you're leaving cos me and Charles Manson like the same ice cream.
Tori Amos.

"I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain". Gun 'n' Roses, Sweet Child of Mine.

"You, the only sense the world has ever made
This I need to save
A simple trinket locked away
I choose my final scene today
Switching off with you"

Elbow, Switching Off

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Pink Floyd.

You and I, (we just) collapsed in love.

Got another one!
'And she never gives up, and she never gives in, she just changes her mind'
In fact, the whole of Always a Woman really.
my song to my mother

And if the homework brings you down,
Then we'll throw it on the fire and take the car downtown

• Kooks David Bowie

Queen of Denmark. .....

To casually mention that I pissed in your coffee.

Me too Honeydragon
I love the lyrics to
You taught me how to dance (I think Katie Melua does it well )

I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them, but they were only satellites
It's wrong to wish on space hardware

(Billly Bragg, A New England)

If I can shoot Rabbits
I can shoot fascists

Manic Street Preachers

You, for dragging me through, I never knew, the sky was blue
But thirty years of stormclouds cleared for you.
It's you I came to, I know that the sea had it's eyes on me, but if dolphins swim then well damn so can we.

You're my dirty little secret and wanna keep you so.

PJ Harvey - this is love

I want to dance beneath the diamond sky, with one hand waving free....

Or

This is the day, your life will surely change
This is the day, when things fall into place

Or

I want to sleep with you in the desert tonight,
with a million stars all around

Or

Thanks, for the trouble you took
From her eyes, I always thought it was for good
So I never even tried.

Or erm,

Drink sangria in the park,
Then later when it gets dark,
We go home....

Something cheery from The Smiths...

There's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

You're my end and my beginning

John legend

I took a chance, and changed your way of life...

But you left without a single word,
it's better in the end
There are no words to say goodbye
I hope you meet again...

Oh! And....

Watch us wreck the mic x3
Psyche!

The children woke up and they couldn't find them
They left before the sun came up that day.

Really used to appeal to me as an idea with 4 DC close in age.

I also like the RW line

I look like KISS but without the makeup.

Once I thought I saw you
In a crowded hazy bar
Dancing on the lights
From star to star
Far across the moonbeam
I know that's who you are
I saw your brown eyes
Turn and watch the fire

"Hey can I have some of your purple berries?
Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now, haven't got sick once,
probably keep us both alive. "

Wooden ships - Crosby, Stills and Nash.

From Eleanor Rigby

Waits at the window, wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door

and, from Sound of Silence

The sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway wall

im a huge johnny cash fan and although he didn't write the song i love his version of hurt. it comes across as a very emotional look back on a turbulent life
what have i become, my sweetest friend
everyone i know goes away in the end
and you could have it all, my empire of dirt
i will let you down, i will make you hurt

if i could start again a million miles away,
i would keep myself
i would find a way
