Your favourite lines in songs
Just thought I'd start a thread of asking what peoples favourite lines in songs were.

Might as well kick it off with some prodigy-
If i was in world war 2 they'd call me Spitfire.

I thought that was quite an impressive line, that song always gets me on my feet.

Kenny Rogers - Ruby
"It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralysed"
A sad song, but I always find that line funny.

"And then one day you find ten years have gone behind you" or from the same song "Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way".

Always fills me with that "if only" feeling. Usually happens when things are getting tight financialy.

As they are again now.

"As bad as I am I'm proud of the fact that I'm worse than I seem"

Ani diFranco, Grey. The whole song's a gem, but that line makes me smile every time I hear it.

i was just having a laugh and being sarcastic. sing blue silver is a great live video/dvd from the 84 usa tour, nicely and surprisingly released along with the long form video on dvd, arena, which also has the making off. arena has wild boys, reflex, etc

btw, it's time barbarella had a nice SE with documentary, 5.1 soundtrack and music only soundtrack by the bob crew generation orchestra (the guy who did can't take my eyes off you). and of course the title scene without the titles!
