Tuesday Favorites… Greatest Single Line in a Song

I'm going to bump this thread up. I bet @soflagator is a bandwagon fan now that Jimmy is dead. He will probably be listening to Margaritville and drinking all Labor Day weekend toasting to Buffett.

I always hated that song for the stupid reason that much of what she notes as ironic, isn’t. (Maybe one of you can tell me how there’s irony in a black fly in your glass of Chardonnay.).

Was going back through this thread reprisal that I somehow missed and saw your post. Maybe ironic if you were expecting Spanish Fly?

My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end”
