Favorite one-line in a song

she's got a couple of pony kegs
her arms are bigger than my legs
and when she holds me I can't breathe
she works hard at eating well, that's why I love her -hotdog in a hallway (nofx)
 
Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed i lie here charmed
Cause theres nothing else to do
Every me and every you
-Placebo

And an obvious one, but a goodie:

And i forget just why i taste
Oh yeah i guess it makes me smile
I find it hard, its hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
-Nirvana
 
"your heavens trying everything to keep me out"

-far from home by five finger death punch.
 
"You can't quit until you try
You can't live until you die
You can't learn to tell the truth
Until you learn to lie

You can't breath until you choke
You gotta laugh when you're the joke
There's nothing like a funeral
To make you feel alive!"

From "Life is Beautiful" composed by Six A.M.

I want this song played at my funeral. :)
 
Its not one line, sorry, but its too good not to post.

Well out of south Alabama come a country boy
Said I'm lookin for a man named Jim
I'm a pool shootin boy name of Willie McCoy
But down home they call me Slim
Said I'm lookin for the king of 42nd street
He drivin a drop top cadillac
Last week he took all my money
And it may sound funny
But I come to get my money back

"You Dont Mess Around With Jim"
-Jim Croce

Youtube it, its ace
 
"If I can't be my own, I'd feel better dead."

From "Nutshell," by Alice in Chains.
 
"I ain't much to look at and I won't win a prize,
but when it comes to lovin', I'll open your eyes"

Big Maybelline - That's a Pretty Good Love
 
Bared on your tomb
I am a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above unto me?

For once upon a time
From the binds of your loneliness
I could always find
The right slot for your sacred key

Nymphetamine - Cradle of Filth

"Talk my shit hit the spliff till my eyes bleed (nigga)"
-Breakfast AT ePiffanies by Flatbush Zombies
 
"I need a fix cause I'm going down - Mother Superior jumped the gun"

-the beatles - happiness is a warm gun
 
"In the end it seems im headed for the pen i try to find my friends, but they're blowin in the wind.."
-tupac

"Im the man on the moon and ima do what i do so do you (hey hey) i be posted with my blunt and a brew my dude, im that man on moon.." -kid cudi
 
"Mona Lisa must got them highway blues you can tell by the way she smiles" Bob D... I prefer as sang by the best Dylan cover band, the Grateful Dead

"A short while back the door flung wide
We all saw good luck on the other side
The door blew shut but here's the deal
Dreams are lies, it's the dreaming that's real" Bob Weir

"the rainman gave me two cures
Then he said, "Jump right in"
The one was Texas medicine
The other was just railroad gin
And like a fool I mixed them
And it strangled up my mind
And now, people just get uglier
And I have no sense of time" Bobby D again- a very appropriate lyric for this forum.

And I like all of Dark Side of the Moon for Roger's sophomoric yet genius lyrics surrounding the human condition as seen through the eyes of a young alienated man with a sarcastic sense of humor (Humour?))
