my favorite lyrics happens to be in my favorite song

"He's starting to choke. It's been so long since he spoke. Well he could have the words right from my mouth." -- Pink Floyd from the song Wearing The Inside Out (I believe)

Any line by Modest Mouse.

You were laying on the carpet,
like you're satin in a coffin
Said "do you believe what you're saying?"
Yeah right now but not that often

-From Satin in a Coffin

If you could be anything you want, I bet you'd be disappointed, am I right?

-I forget which song

We've got good news for people who love bad news

-Bury Me With It

If life's not beautiful without the pain,
well I'd rather never ever even see
beauty again

-The View

We would talkin' 'bout nothin' it was more than you wanted to know-oh-oh-oh.

-Dashboard

And it's true we named our children
After towns that we've never been to.
And it's true that the clouds just hung around
Like black Cadillacs outside a funeral.

And we were done, done, done
With all the fuck, fuck, fuckin' around.
You were so true to yourself.
You were true to no one else.
Well I should put you in the ground.

-Black Cadillacs

Mine is Taylor Swift's You belong with me

But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
Sheâs cheer captain and Iâm on the bleachers


She wears high heels, I wear sneakers

It's "While I kiss the sky".

Well, don't I feel stupid? I heard "While I kiss this guy" for years when I listened to it. It was a wee bit hard to distinguish the words...

It's "kiss the sky." The other is simply a misheard lyric, but he sometimes sang it that way in live versions.

Fort Minor Remember the name

that's probably one of my favorite choruses because it rings so true. I like what shinoda's done so far with fort minor

Here's another favorite, from [i]Sabbath Bloody Sabbath[/b] by Black Sabbath.

Dreams turn to nightmares
Heaven turns to hell

Short and sweet, and sounds really nice.

It is Kiss the Sky,but Jimi's so high when he's singing that it sounds different.

Please, no spamming. You won't get much respect if you do.

My favorite lyrics:

I was driving on the freeway in the fast lane
With a rabid wolverine in my underwear
When suddenly a guy behind me in the back seat
Popped right up and cupped his hands across my eyes

I guessed, "Is it Uncle Frank or Cousin Louie?"
"Is it Bob or Joe or Walter?"
"Could it be Bill or Jim or Ed or Bernie or Steve?"
I probably would have kept on guessing
But about that time we crashed into the truck

And as I'm laying bleeding there on the asphalt
Finally I recognize the face of my hibachi dealer
Who takes off his prosthetic lips and tells me

Everything you know is wrong
Black is white, up is down and short is long
And everything you thought was just so
Important doesn't matter

Everything you know is wrong
Just forget the words and sing along
All you need to understand is
Everything you know is wrong

I was walkin' to the kitchen for some Golden Grahams
When I accidentally stepped into an alternate dimension
And soon I was abducted by some aliens from space
Who kinda looked like Jamie Farr

They sucked out my internal organs
And they took some polaroids
And said I was a darn good sport
And as a way of saying thank you
They offered to transport me back to
Any point in history that I would care to go

And so I had them send me back to last Thursday night
So I could pay my phone bill on time
Just then the floating disembodied head of
Colonel Sanders started yelling

Everything you know is wrong
Black is white, up is down and short is long
And everything you thought was just so
Important doesn't matter

Everything you know is wrong
Just forget the words and sing along
All you need to understand is
Everything you know is wrong

I was just about to mail a letter to my evil twin
When I got a nasty papercut
And, well, to make a long story short
It got infected and I died

So now I'm up in heaven with St. Peter
By the pearly gates
And it's obvious he doesn't like
The Nehru jacket that I'm wearing
He tells me that they've got a dress code

Well, he lets me into heaven anyway
But I get the room next to the noisy ice machine
For all eternity
And every day he runs by screaming

Everything you know is wrong
Black is white, up is down and short is long
And everything you used to think was so important
Doesn't really matter anymore
Because the simple fact remains that

Everything you know is wrong
Just forget the words and sing along
All you need to understand is
Everything you know is wrong
Everything you know is wrong

From Neil Young's "Cowgirl in the Sand"

Hello cowgirl in the sand
Is this place at your command?
Can I stay here for a while?
Can I see your sweet sweet smile?
Old enough nowto change your name
When so many love you,is it the same?
It's the woman in you that makes you want to play this game.

For The Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun"

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

From Blue Oyster Cult's "Mistress of the Salmon Salt (Quicklime Girl)"

In the garden district
Where the plants grow strong and tall
Behind the bush there lurks a girl
Who makes them strong and tall
The villagers call her
Quicklime girl........Behind her back
Quicklime girl........Behind the bush
Quicklime girl
She's the mistress of the salmon salt
Quicklime girl
Quicklime girl
Quicklime girl

And of course, from one of my fave Pink Floyd compositions, "The Gnome"

I want to tell you a story
'Bout a little man if I can.
A gnome named Grimble Gromble.
And little gnomes stay in their homes,
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.

He wore a scarlet tunic,
A blue-green hood, it looked quite good.
He had a big adventure
Amidst the grass, fresh air at last.
Wining, dining, biding his time...

And then one day...
Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
Ooh my...

Look at the sky, look at the river.
Isn't it good?
Look at the sky, look at the river.
Isn't it good?

Winding, finding places to go.

And then one day
Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
Ooh my ooh my...

Harder, better, faster, stronger
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it

Lolz couldn't pick one from ultimate showdown of ultimate history

angels sang out an immaculate chorus
down from the heavens descended Chuck Norris
who delivered a kick which could shatter bones
into the crotch of Indiana Jones
who fell over on the ground, writhing in pain
as Batman changed back into Bruce Wayne
but Chuck saw through his clever disguise
and he crushed Batman's head inbetween his thighs
