What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...
arthursmuck
"I always leave the bar room when is over. Not feelin any pain at closin time"

Merle Haggard. "Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down"
'You're the One for Me, Fatty'

and

'Girlfriend in a coma, I know I know - it's serious'

both by Morrissey.
just thought of a couple more:

'One Cup of Tea is Never Enough but two is One Too Many'

and

'I can’t go back to savoury… now'

both classics by John Shuttleworth
Pcoombs,
Morrissey has so many great lyrics, it would be hard to know where to start. "Bigmouth Strikes Again" is another of many.
I'm going to see him for the second time in Phoenix on Feb 10th. Looking forward to it.
Enjoy the gig Roxy54, hope Morrissey is well enough now.
I had the good fortune of growing up in Manchester and being in my late teen during the eighties heard them at the beginning.
ok one more for the road:

'Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said I'd like to smash every tooth
In your head.......... Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race.'
