Great lines in songs...

Let me wear you out
Let me wear you out
Let me make you mine, mine, mine
Let me make you mine, mine, mine

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.

Sunday Morning Coming Down- Johnny Cash although I think Kris Kristofferson wrote the song

I had a T-shirt that was printed with words from  Jefferson Airplane-

"War is Business,Invest your Son and I'd rather my country die for me."- A human life doesn't mean sh*t to a tree.

Wore it when us youngsters thought marching in the streets would mean something.

 

It was once said by a man who couldn't quit
"Dopeman, please can I have another hit?"

hike up your skirt a little more

Philosophy...is the talk on a cereal box.................Religion...is a smile on a dog.

WE CAME IN SPASTIC

"Why do I need I.D. to get I.D.? If I had I.D. I wouldn't need I.D." -Mos Def-


"Throw down your umbilical noose, so I can climb right back" -Kurt Cobain-


"F*ck L Ron Hubbard and f*ck all his clones, f*ck all these gun toting hip gangster wannabes.
F*ck retro anything, f*ck your tatoos, f*ck all you junkees and f*ck your short memory.
F*ck smiley glad hands, w/ hidden agendas.
F*ck these dysfunctional insecure actresses.
Learn to swim" -Maynard James Keenan-

just need to carry on, carry on this cold and empty life - rush

Love Tool, great band. Last of a dead breed in progressive rock bands.

Seen them 8 times, never disappointed

"So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing."

Led Zep- Immigrant Song

Ah, Ah,

"You said it youself, you like it like I do

I watch the sun go down like everyone of us.
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign.
A better place for those, who will come after us
This time..Ozzy Osbourne – Dreamer

Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right

Mama, just killed a man. Put a gun against his chest, pulled the trigger now his dead - Bohemian Rapsody/Queen

"Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then."

I like this too but the Panic at the Disco one.

That song is full of great lines, as are many written by Kristofferson but you stopped before what is maybe the best line ever written in a song: "I crossed the street and caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken."  For anyone over 55, in the USA, Sunday was chicken day on most home menus.  That line was brilliant and actually triggers taste buds and a flood of memories for me every time I hear it.  You just know that Kristofferson actually had to really live life to express himself so well in lyrics.  The album Willie did of his songs is outstanding: Bobby McGee, Pilgrim 33, and Sunday Morning Coming Down all on it.

Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die
Why

"And if I could move, I'd get my gun and put her in the ground "
