Re: Favourite Opening Line To a Song

Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me
No hope, but no harm
Just another false alarm

LAST NIGHT I DREAMT THAT SOMEBODY LOVED ME The Smiths

Quality opening line

Re: Favourite Opening Line To a Song

God save the queen the fascist regime sex pistols

Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did tom waits

Standing on a beach with a gun in my hand the cure

Well we know where we're going,but we dont know where we've been
talking heads

I don't have to sell my soul,He's already in me stone roses

Quality opening line
Difficult choice, I could probably come up with loads - such is the quality of Mozzers lyrics.

I'll go for

Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position I've held
It pays my way, and it corrodes my soul

One of many:

'On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air'

I am sure we all know this one.

Re: Favourite Opening Line To a Song

Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry lee lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

Jesus Built My Hotrod - Ministry
(featuring Butthole Surfers' Gibby Haynes)
