As well as Chas & Dave there's:
"At 666 there lives a Mr Miller,
He's the local vicar and a serial killer."
Neighbourhood, by Space. Could have picked any line from that song really.
Favourite lyric Page 10
Two lyrics from Breck Road Lover by The Libertines:
"She's no scrubber,
She's my Breck Road lover
And we wash in dirty waters"
"And if lust, and despair
Were two bullets, in the same gun
Well we've been playing Russian roulette
For far too long"
Ian Dury (possibly the best lyricist ever) - 'Billericay Dickie'
I'd rondez-vouez with Janet
Quite near the Isle of Thanet
She looked more like a gannet
She wasn't half a prannet
Her mother tried to ban it
Her father helped me plan it
And when I captured Janet
She bruised her pomegranet
'I once had a girl or should I say she once had me'. Norwegian Wood. Sums the song up in one line and has double-entendres working in it as well. Clever stuff.
My postal lady says this is my theme song http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9ch5_wont-back-down-tom-petty-and_music
'Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.'
