Best Line in a Song

[cosmicfolklore]

Creepy stalker song by the Police

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take, I'll be watching you

 

[cosmicfolklore]

another creepy stalker song

I am, I am, I am Superman and I know what's happening
I am, I am, I am Superman and I can do anything
If you go a million miles away I'll track you down, girl
Trust me when I say I know the pathway to your heart

 

[renfield]

Now your patrons have all left you in the red
Your low rent friends are dead
This life can be very strange

All those day glo freaks who used to paint their face
They've joined the human race
Some things will never change

 

[cosmicfolklore]

And I remember something you once told me
And I'll be damned if it did not come true
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
And they all lead me straight back home to you

Gram Parsons

 

[cosmicfolklore]

The name she gave was Caroline...
Daughter of a miner...
And her ways were free...
And it seemed to me...
The sunshine walked beside her...

Townes Van Zandt

 

[tobefrank]

Well, I'm A Six Point Seven On The Richter Scale
I've Got Rhymes Gallot And Then I Never Fail
Like Gravy On Potatos, Luke To Darth Vader
I'm A Souped Up Sucker And I'll See You All Later
- Beastie Boys -

Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one...

If you seek Amy...

It took me weeks to realize why this song was so controversial in the news. I had to say it out loud over and over and over, with my daughters all laughing hysterically at me.

I love your pants around your feet… You’re like my favorite damn disease...

^^This is just one of the MANY reasons no one likes or respects Nickelback

^^This is just one of the MANY reasons no one likes or respects Nickelback

That doesn't mean you won't get a Nickleback song stuck in your head... Damnit!

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Take my thong off and my ass go boom!

Missy Elliot - when I hear this, all I can think is that I don't want to be anywhere near that ass when it goes boom, haha.

 

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
Drove a Cadillac car
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Oh babe, I wanna put my log in your fireplace...

It's interesting how when KISS looked all evil and wore make up, their actual music was 1950's bee bop sounding. Then they took their make up off and sounded way more evil, but this lyric... haha.

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Young, black, and famous, with money hangin’ out the anus...

Puff Daddy, I swear I am not making this up, listen to the damned song, or well... I don't really advise it.

 

[renfield]

I'm a streetwalking cheetah with a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of a nuclear A-bomb.

Mama, don't let your sons grow up to be cowboys ... Willie

[cosmicfolklore]

Yes, I like piña coladas... and gettin' caught in the rain...
I'm not much into health food... I am into champagne...

I really love this song, especially in the summer, on the back deck. Most haven't paid attention to lyrics, which tells a very funny story about what it was like to use the Personals in newspapers to find dates before the internet.

 

[Old School 3319]

Ain't no God in Mexico ain't no comfort in the can
When your down in Matamoras gettin' busted by the man
If I had not seen the sunshine I would not cuss your rain.
If my feet would fit a railroad track I guess I would have been a train

Waylon Jennings

 

[Old School 3319]

Blow up your TV
Throw away your paper
Go to the country
Build you a home
Plant a little garden
Eat a lot of peaches
Try an' find Jesus on your own

John Prine
