Your favourite song lyrics, line, verse or chorus

With Peter Sarstadt passing away who created some great verses "Where do you go to my Lovely" it got me thinking about other great lines in songs.

George Michael from Fast Love:
"Stupid Cupid keeps calling on me,
but I see nothing in his eyes"

Squeeze and "Up the Junction"
"The devil came and took me from bar to street to bookie"

What are some of the other great lines out there for other WHO'ers?

I look at yours , you laugh at mine and love is just a miserable lie.

Yellow matter custard
Dripping from a dead dog's eye
Crabalocker fishwife
Pornographic priestess
Boy, you've been a naughty girl
You let your knickers down

You live in a fancy apartment
Off the Boulevard of St. Michel
Where you keep your Rolling Stones records
And a friend of Sacha Distel, yes you do.

He picked em up in his rolls and penetrated their holes
and gave charity a load of quids.
Jimmy Saville and the sexy kids.

I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And I've got the inevitable pinhole burns
All down the front of my favourite satin shirt

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?

Re: Your favourite song lyrics, line, verse or chorus

Echoes of the Broadway Everglades With her mythical madonnas still walking in their shades:

Lenny Bruce, declares a truce and plays his other hand. Marshall McLuhan, casual viewin', head buried in the sand.

Sirens on the rooftops wailing, but there's no ship sailing. Groucho, with his movies trailing, stands alone with his punchline failing.

Klu Klux Klan serve hot soul food and the band plays 'In the Mood' The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand, there's a smell of peach blossom and bitter almonde.

Caryl Chessman sniffs the air and leads the parade, he know in a scent, you can bottle all you made.

There's Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes, smiling at the majorettes smoking Winston Cigarettes.

And as the song and dance begins, the children play at home with needles; needles and pins.

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.

Re: Your favourite song lyrics, line, verse or chorus

I've got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi
Guess what-I'm stirring it with a monkey's paw
Since I saw you coming out of my barber's shop
In that skimpy little halter top

Did you light the candles? Did you put on "Kind of Blue?"
Did you use that Ivy League voodoo on him, too?
He thinks he'll be alright but he doesn't know for sure
Like every other unindicted co-conspirator

Mata Hari had a house in France
Where she worked on all her secret plans
Men were falling for her sight unseen
She was a genius

There's a a face in every window of the Songwriters' Neighborhood
Everybody's your best friend when you're doing well-I mean good
The poet who lived next door when you were young and poor
Grew up to be a backstabbing entrepreneur

Albert Einstein was a ladies' man
While he was working on his universal plan
He was making out like Charlie Sheen
He was a genius

When you dropped me and you staked your claim
On a V.I.P. who could make your name
You latched on to him and I became
A minor inconvenience
Your protege don't care about art
I'm the one who always told you you were smart
You broke my heart into smithereens
And that took genius

You and the barber make a handsome pair
Guess what-I never liked the way he cut your hair
I didn't like the way he turned your head
But there's nothing I can do or say I haven't done or said

Everybody needs a place to stand
And a method for their schemes and scams
If I could only get my record clean
I'd be a genius

In the papers today
Tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page

We will arise
We will control
We will command
We will patrol
It is foolish under the guise of love and liberty
That we should capitalize and rob and fell
The poor for the socialistic tree
We will arise
We will control
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack

Well, the chainsmoker, he called the stockbroker
He said, "Hal I hate to sell, we've been doing really well
But I need a little liquidity, you know I think they might be onto me"

You see we all went down to meet that guy with the eye-patch
And I was nervous, I was nauseous, I was dripping wet with heat rash
And the stark bar's filled with card-sharks and the carparks they get so dark
And the false starts make me jumpy and those chicks were just so dumpy
And those pimps with the shrimps from the Blimpie up on 5th Street
I should've known that no one clean would ever lie down quite that easy

Finally the guy with the eye-patch arrives
He was dripping wet with Gin Fizz
He was half dead and dynamite
With the needle-marked arms like the frontman in some grunge band
A big straw hat and a liquid orange suntan
He cooled himself off with a Japanese hand-fan
Motioned for silence and then he began, he said:

"You know this clown they call the Nightclub Dwight
He's got a place called the Nice, Nice that he won rolling dice dice
Dwight likes the lights, he likes roaming the foam
Now Dwight's never home now that Dwight's got a jones
Dwight was pretty nice when he took out that loan from us
Now Dwight don't got the courtesy to pick up the phone for us"

He made ade a joke, he leaned in close and then he spoke, he said:
"I want Nightclub Dwight dead in his grave
I want the Nice, Nice up in blazes"
