Best Line in a song?

[reg42]

I've been listening to a live medley by Dope called "Die Boom Bang Burn Fuck". The one line which always runs down my spine is

Everybody sing with me
Kill the fucking enemy

It's not so much the line itself, but how it's said.

 

[UnmotivatedSlacker]

You see my swag.
Now you wanna come and give me all this drag.
I think you better back, back.
Because my hand is itching to give you a smack.
What's your name again, Jack?
It's the end of the road, ain't no turning back.
Don't let the fly taste fool you.
Matter of fact, it's about time that I school you.
Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry.
I don't even wanna get my fresh gear dirty.
A little birdie chirped of your flurry.
Now I must nip it, or better yet bury
Your entity. Look at me while I'm talking
I heard you lurking or was it even stalking
My program, thinking you're the man in the place.
Now it's about time you catch a hand to the face.

Look Pimpin! - MadWorld

 

[Saarai-fan]

I don't know what my favorite line in a song is, but I believe I know what was the most disgusting of them all.

"You made a dead man come." - Final line in the song, Start Me Up by the Rolling Stones

Whenever I hear that song and that particular line at the end, it makes my face cringe.

But if I had to say what the best line was, it would probably be...

"Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto." - From Mr. Roboto by Styx

 

[Rachel317]

Probably...the whole chorus from In This Moment's Violet Skies

"Imagine a place
Where dreams lead the way
And all of the colours fade to grey
Imagine the dream
Now close both your eyes
Fall into the violet skies."

Sorry, I'd have put it in a spoiler, but I don't know how! *Cries*

That whole song just rocks. Indeed, both In This Moment albums just rule. A chick that can sing AND scream, when needed??? No...freaking...way :O

 

[PureChaos]

'when you've loved and you've lost someone close to you, you know what it feels like to lose'

 

[Latinidiot]

When all is one and one is all!

to be a rock and not to rooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooll


perfect as that song is, it does not have enough bass...

agreed bass really would add something.

OT:my favourite line would be, I guess, by Porcupine Tree

Silence is another way
of saying what I want to say
Lying is another way
of hoping it wil go away

'I drive the hearse'

edit: No wait! It has to be in Jupiter Island, also by Porcupine Tree:

Jupiter Island is full of pleasures
Glowing gardens holding hidden treasures
Luminous flowers of yellows and greens
Glittering petals that have to be seen
Here's your chance don't let it pass you by
Take my hand and we'll fly

Jupiter Island is surrounded by oceans
Majestic ballerinas with graceful motions
Magenta forests on a crimson sea
The electric clouds ar as vivid as can be
Scarlet moons in a domino sky
Take my hand and we'll fly

Come on let's fly to Jupiter Island
Just take my hand and we'll fly

Jupiter Island is full of mountains
Ruby rivers and sapphire fountains
Chessboard lawns bible black and white
The pink and blue trees are incredibly bright
An orange sunset painted on the sky
Take my hand and we'll fly

Jupiter Island is full of people
But you can't see them unless you want to
Lying in the hay on a hot sunny day
Everyone's happy so no-one's gay
Laughter from the children dances way on high Take my
hand and we'll fly

Jupiter Island is full of meadows
Fertile pastures for growing rainbows
Illuminated portraits from strange orchestrations
Lost in a collage of its own creations
Never a chance to wave goodbye
Take my hand and we'll fly

the combination of this and very trippy music makes it perfect for a heavy session of LSD. Or pot, whatever.

Steel Panther FTW!!!

now that's done. Nirvana- something in the way: "it's okay to eat fish cos they don't have any feelings." prophetic nonsense, love it

 

[Marter]

"You don't have to feel safe to feel unafraid".

Great song, great line.

 

[Professor M]

Spoiler: This whole song

 

[UberLemonBoy]

that's right consider yourself warned im offensive and creative like handicapped porn

 

[Zay5k]

Well I'd say that Coheed and Cambria have some pretty awsome lyrics. Some of my favorites would be:

"Believer...Believe it or not you'll know. When it ends and how it goes" -Lying Lies & Dirty Secrets

"And she screams 'Claudio, dear Claudio. I wish, god dammit, we'll make it if you believe"- Everything Evil

 

[fernie240]

"are we human or are we dancer"

think about it

 

[shwnbob]

In the afterlife,
you could be headed for the serious strife,
now you make the scene all day,
but tomorrow there'll be Hell to pay.
Hell covered by Streetlight Manifesto.

 

[PurplePox]

Megadeth's Rust in Peace... Polaris

Its got a great line that goes "Immense in my girth, Erect I stand tall" call me immature but that gets me everyime

 

[Lord Beautiful]

"Even your girl is buttcheeks compared to my prettiness."

-Spittin' Narcissism, Jose the Bronx Rican

 

[Regiment]

In the category of "sounds mysterious but means nothing":

"Sometimes a dream turns into a dream"
-Cadence of Her Last Breath/ Nightwish

In the category of "sounds awesome and is fun to sing aloud":
"So with sin, I condemn you, demon, play demon out"
-Welcome Home/ Coheed and Cambria

In the category of "the meaning of life":
"We are on the cruise"
-We Are/ Kitadani Hiroshi

 

[NeoNomad]

Blinded by the light revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Only because for the longest time I though it was
Blinded by the light rapped up like a douche another runner in the night

YOU'RE NOT ALONE!!!

 

[Castratikron]

The less I see the more I know, the more I like to let it go
- Snow (Hey Oh) The Red Hot Chili Peppers

 

[bassdrum]

First thing that popped into my head was a line by Aesop Rock from the song Daylight:

'Life's not a *****, life is a beautiful woman--you only call her a ***** because she wouldn't let you get that pussy. Maybe she just thought y'all didn't share any similar interests, or maybe you're just an asshole who couldn't sweet talk a princess.'

For some reason, that line just makes me happy.
