Favourite song lyric to quote? There are a lot of good ones out there; curious to hear what everyone's answers will be.

Mine, ATM: "Presuming that all things are equal/ who'd want to be men of the people/ When there's people like you?"

The long and winding road...

What a long strange trip it's been...

Woke last night to the sound of thunder.
How far off, I sat and wondered.
Started humming a song from 1962.
Funny how the night moves,
And autumn closes in.

I have bazillions but here's the first to pop into my head;
"They say Goldfish have no memories
I guess their lives are much like mine.
And the little plastic castles,
Are a surprise every time".- Ani Difranco

Oh that's beautiful.

From that album? I just wanna get my feet wet until I drown.

@Nottheonlyone love Swandive

Now sit right down and you'll hear a tale. a tale of a fateful trip - that started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship.

The mate was a mighty sailing man, ths skipper brave and sure. Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour tour - A three hour tour....

the weather started getting rough - the tiny ship was tossed . If not for the courage of the fearless crew , the Minnow would be lost - the Minnow would be lost! ....

@TerriCity I am on the edge of my seat! What happened? Was the Minnow lost!?

Oh, wait! It is in the historical documents – "those poor people." ⛵

@PappyOnWings the ship struck ground on the shore of this unchartered dessert isle , with Gilligan! the Skipper too! the millionaire and his wife! The movie star , the professor and MaryAnn. .here on Gilligan's Isle!

So funny

" I didn't snort the cocaine to get high I just liked the way it smelled" Ray Wylie Hubbard from Conversation With The Devil.

Favourite lyric for the imagery: "My time is a piece of wax, falling on a termite, who's choking on a splinter." Beck: Loser
[azlyrics.com]

also all the euphemism in the Bloodhound gang's song: The Bad Touch.
[azlyrics.com]

Almost all the lyrics of Barenaked Ladies are really funny: like "I just made you say underwear" [azlyrics.com]

Best lyrics with rythm: Barenaked Ladies: "Chickity China the Chinese chicken....
[azlyrics.com]

Best rhyme that makes no sense: Barenaked Ladies: "I'd buy you a green dress (but not a real green dress, that's cruel)"
[azlyrics.com]

Sorry for the long post...

Some people wear their heart upon their sleeve; I wear mine underneath my right pant leg, strapped to my boot.

Don't think cuz I'm easy, I'm naive. Don't think I won't pull it out, don't think I won't shoot!

some people wear their smile
like a disguise
those people who smile a lot
watch the eyes
i know it 'cuz i'm like that a lot
you think everything's okay
and it is
'til it's not

Yes! Remember you were warned! ❤

all i need is my leather
one t-shirt and two socks
i'll keep my hands warm in your pockets
and you can use the engine block
we'll ride out to california
with my arms around your chest
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best

Love Ani!

I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp
I live life like the captain of a sinking ship

If I were joking, I would have to say: “I want your cray cray...” which is a song from the show Jessica Jones.

But seriously, I would have to go with: “You can go your own way...Go your own way...You can call it another lonely day...” ~ Fleetwood Mac (Although I prefer Lissie’s version)

But I also do use this particular line when Halloween roles around: “In this town - We call home - Everyone hail the Pumpkin Song” ~ Broken Peach

Well it’s more like spoken word set to a beat but I absolutely love this lyric:
“The reason there’s smog in Los Angeles

Is cause if we could see the stars

If we could see the context of the universe we exist in

We could see how small each one of us is

Against the vastness of what we don’t know

No one would ever audition for a McDonald’s commercial again

And then where would we be?

No frozen dinners and no TV
And Is that a world we wanna text in?”

Tiny Glowing Screens by Watsky from his album Cardboard Castles.

I love Watsky! I started out as a spoken word artist and ended up doing the same competition that he had done a few years earlier.

@TheFighter23 Wow another Watsky fan? And you write poetry too?! I used to enter poetry competitions as well. Have you listened to his latest album yet? There are some really great songs on it

Meghan Trainor, "No Excuses,"
and the words,"Someone else you must have confused me with...I don't disrespect you, don't you disrespect me."
