Favourite lyric

Mine has to be...

Droplets of yes and no, in an ocean of maybes

From Faith No More's Falling to Pieces.

...Because I'm really indecisive.

Ooo, Ooo... too many!

Des'Ree - Life

Ooh, Yeah
Oh yeah
Oh Life
Oh Life
I'm afraid of the dark
Especially when I'm in a park
When there's no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don't wanna see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
Watch the evening news

genius.

And also very cheesey. ;)

aaron - you don't know what you're talking about. these lyrics changed my life

Sarah Silverman-I wish

I wish the retarded, could be resmarted

Stranglers-Peaches

Will you take a look over there?
Where?
There
Is she trying to get out of that clitoris
Liberation for women
That's what I preach
Preacher man
Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches

Oh shit! There goes the charabang
Looks like I'm gonna be stuck here the whole summer
Well what a bummer

Every word in
No Sympathy for the Devil....Rolling Stones.
Daughter by Pearl Jam.

Infact most of Pearl Jam's songs are very very poetic. The fact that it is put over heavy (ish) music makes it so unique. Read the Lyrics to Daughter. .......

"The world is a vampire, sent to drain" - Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Smashing Pumpkins

"In darkened rooms throughout the land, TV junkies get Sky high" - Reveal - The Mythmakers.

"Jump in my Car" Some arty fartsy type no doubt ...oh no wait David Hasslehoff

Simple to the point you know what is require and how to achieve it, Clarity is what the music industry lacks
