What are some of the best lyrics you've heard in a song?

Question

You only need to quote a few lines not the entire song!

Answer 1

"Life is a game that no one wins and you deserve a head start to where your life's going, so throw in the towel cuz your life ain't S H I T, No take the towel and hang yourself with it, Life's short and hard like a bodybuilding elf, so save the planet and kill yourself, If your feeling down and out with what your life is all about Lift your head up high and blow your brains out!" Bloodhound Gang,

I usually like much different styles of music but these lyrics are so funny and so true..to me at least...I'm not suicidal but People who hate life should listen to the words of this song.

Answer 2

When Linda Scott sings "I've Told Ev'ry Little Star," for a few intent she says: Friends question me, am I in love? I regularly reply sure Might as good confess If the reply's sure I'm lovely definite the long-established final line is, "if I do not they bet," that is handiest moderately much less repetitive. That recording is a masterpiece in any other case.

Answer 3

One that sticks in my mind is a line from and old Jim Croce song called, "Which Way Are You Going." The lines are this:

And now you've turned your back on
All the things that you used to preach
Now its "Let him live in freedom"
If he lives like me
Well, your line has changed, confusion reigns
What have you become?
You olive branches turned to spears
And your flowers turned to guns.

One of those songs that is just a relevant today as it was when it was written back in the early 70's.

Answer 4

Seven Spanish Angels @ the alter of the Son
They were prayin for the lovers in the valley of the gun
when the battle stopped & the smoke cleared there was thunder from the throne
And 7 Spanish Angels took another angel home

or

He stopped loving her today..........

Answer 5

CRACKER: Another Song About The Rain
Got a line straight from my heart,
Was a time it ran to you.
Another place when we were smart,
Before the flood of time was through.
I sing myself to sleep at night..
I sing myself to sleep..
Another Song about the rain,
Coming down it burns through me.
Another Song about the rain.

Answer 6

I like lyrics to Little Wing..."Well she is walking through the clouds with a circus man that is running around. Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams and fairy tales all she ever talks about and riding with the wind. But I am sure she comes to me with a 1,000 smiles she gives to me free. It's alright she said, take anything..."

Sting sings it, Tuck and Patty do well with it. I have just always liked the image. I am a little like her when I let myself be.

Answer 7

"...I think you better turn your ticket in - Get your money back at the door..." - from 'Omaha' by Counting Crows

"...You think that I'll be bad for just a little while - But I know that I'll be BAD FOR GOOD..." from 'Bad For Good' by Jim Steinman, and remade on the upcoming Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell 3 :-)

"...dark side's calling now, nothing is real - She'll never know just how I feel..." from 'On The Dark Side' by John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band, As Lip-sinc'd by Michael Pare', as Eddie, in 'Eddie And The Cruisers' ;-)

Answer 8

Good Charlotte "We Believe"

"Downtown another day for all the suits and ties, another war to fight, theres no regard for Life."

"So let it be.. Theres a love that could fall down like rain... Let us see.. Let forgiveness wash away the pain... what we need.. and noone really knows what they are searching for...we believe.. this world is crying for so much more."


I love that song.

Answer 9

Queen " Too much love" From his album Made in Heaven. Fantastic song, excellent album. I could listen to it all day every day. RIP Freddie XXXX

Answer 10

Martina McBride

And when she wraps her hand around my finger,
Oh it puts a smile in my heart,
Everything becomes a little clearer,
I realize what life is all about.

It's hangin' on when your heart has had enough,
It's giving more when you feel like giving up
