Great lines in songs...

 A like thread was started several years ago by PokerBroker. I am starting this one with what he posted previously.

 

 If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. - Rush, Freewill

"God came to me in a dream, but unfortunately I was sleeping. So I didn't hear what he said"  Drinkin' Alone by Bill Parker and His Motherscratchers

"If my school had burned to the ground, I woulda gotten smarter sooner and you know that's right" Redneck School of Technology by The Flaming Lips

Good posts Wreck. Need to look up the Bill Parker.

I understand about indecision,
but I don't care if I get behind.
People living in competition,
all I want is to have my peace of mind.

~~~~~Boston, Peace Of Mind

I’ve been driving all night.
My hands wet on the wheel.
My baby’s calling saying I need you here.
And it’s a half past four and I’m shifting gears.
~~~~~Golden Earring

Last thing I remember,
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

~~~~~The Eagles

One of the first lines I thought of when I saw the Title of your Thread.

Not me baby I'm too precious, now fock off

And here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price
You have to pay to get out of
Going through all these things twice

Bob Dylan

Semolina pilchard climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna
Man you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allen Poe
I am the eggman, they are the eggman
I am the walrus, goo goo goo joob

An' she said With a tear in her eye:
WATCH OUT WHERE THE HUSKIES GO
AN' DON'T YOU EAT THAT YELLOW SNOW
WATCH OUT WHERE THE HUSKIES GO
AN' DON'T YOU EAT THAT YELLOW SNOW

Frank Zappa-Don't Eat the Yellow Snow.

Your head is humming and it won't go,
in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him
~~~~~Led Zeppelin

Almost anything written by Rush And a lot of Yes stuff is superb.

But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
That he didn't, didn't already have
~~~~~America

You're breakin' my heart

You're tearin' it apart

So fock you

You're Breakin' my Heart - Harry Nilsson

Thanks, Jimmag. Echoing Goose--safe travels.

Another that resonates with me:

I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage
I found that just surviving was a noble fight
I once believed in causes too
I had my pointless point of view
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right

And there's always a place for the angry young man
With his fist in the air and his head in the sand
And he's never been able to learn from mistakes
So he can't understand why his heart always breaks
And his honor is pure and his courage is well
And he's fair and he's true and he's boring as hell
And he'll go to the grave as an angry old man

Billy Joel

Down in a hole and they've put all
The stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste

Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains)

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

 Time - Pink Floyd

Ola amigos, yo regrasar on Viernes.

Gacias a todo.

One from the vacation.

Wasted away again in Margaritaville-Jimmy Buffet

Many songs written over a few lines 

Hey, Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
~~~~~The Byrds
