Tuesday Favorites… Greatest Single Line in a Song

[Gator By Marriage]

He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

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.).

You gonna put a period after that touché?

I was so focused on the accent mark that I forgot the period.

Ah crap…. I see threat’s post above. That’s cool

Threat starts with Stairway to Heaven and then plummets all the way to Jack and Diane, passing The Spice Girls and Hanson on his way down. Tragic turn of events.

 

[RiverRat]

My neck , my back
Lick my pussy and my crack

[bradgator2]

My neck , my back
Lick my pussy and my crack

This could get ugly real quick if we tap Two Live Crew.

Face down, ass up…

 

[ThreatMatrix]

Please don't

Face down, ass up…

It was that or The Lemon Song

 

[RiverRat]

Please don't

Its a little too late to do the right thing now

Man, I feel like a woman

15 will get you 20... Is a much better quote by Jimmy. The esteemed philosopher has so many to choose from though.


We got to roll with the punches, play all our hunches, make the best of whatever comes your way

Weather is here, wish you were beautiful

If a hurricane doesn’t leave you dead, it will make you strong. Don’t try to explain it, just nod your head. Breathe in, breathe out, move on

Some of it’s magic and some of it’s tragic but I had a good life all the way

Where it all ends, I can’t fathom, my friends. If I knew I might drop my anchor

Life is a journey that’s not measured in miles or years, but in experiences

If doing Jimmy I much prefer

Yes I am a pirate. 200 years to late. The cannons don’t rumble, there’s nothing to plunder, I’m just an over 40 victim of fate. Arriving to late. Arriving to late.

This is damn hard one. So many great songs with good one liners, especially from the grunge/90s alternative era.

 

[Gator by the Sea]

I wanna go back down and lie beside the sea there, with a tin cup for a chalice; fill it up with good red wine, and I’ll be chewing on a honeysuckle vine.

 

[CDGator]

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

 

[B52G8rAC]

OK. Keeping the OP's rule. A relatively new song by Zach Williams. "Fear, he is a liar." Applies in every meaningful moment of a life well lived.

 

[Bernardo de la Paz]

Please tell me why my car is in the front yard, and I'm sleeping with my clothes on. I came in through the window last night, and you're gone.

 

[Detroitgator]

This could get ugly real quick if we tap Two Live Crew.

Face down, ass up…

2live crew was actually the first thing I thought of but I thought, "too soon"

 

[Nalt]

You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave

Bohemian Rhapsody​

Queen
Nothing really matters, anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

To my Neo-Con non-Libertarian FED friends:

And he killed all our cute little weeds
And then he drove away

We just smiled and waved
Sittin' there on that sack o' seeds
