Favorite line from a song.

[Lord George]

Yes, there were thirty thousand pounds of mashed bananas. Awesome Line.

"Lets start a war, start a nuclear war at the GAY BAR,GAY BARRRR!!, always good to shout while running down a busy street, preferably while on the way to a bar, though usually shouted after.

 

[joe182]

'It's labour day and my grandpa just ate 7 fucking hotdogs,
Labour day and my grandpa just ate 7 fucking hotdogs,
And he shit, shit shit his pants, he's always fuckin shitting his pants'
-Happy holidays you bastard, Blink 182.

On a more serious note...
'My brother had a book he would hold with pride
A little red cover with a broken spine
On the back, he hand-wrote a quote inside
When the rich wage war it's the poor who die'
Hands Held High- Linkin park.

[Fulax]

Motorhead - Just 'Cos You Got the Power

You can take my fingers babe,
You can take my eyes,
You can take my past and future,
It won't make you wise,
You can have me thrown in jail,
You can steal my booze,
You can even read my mail,
Step on my blue suede shoes.

You bastards must be clever,
Got it mapped out in black and white,
But don't forget you'll never,
Get a dog to walk upright,
Just 'Cos You Got The Power,
That don't mean you got the right.

Motorhead - Orgasmatron

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant and revel in your pain
And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate
I am the politician, and I decide your fate


Or to put it more succinctly:

Lost Horizon - Sworn in the Metal Wind

Don't forget you are metal not some ass-kissing whore

 

[Andalusa]

Two parts from the same song, My Apocalypse - Escape the Fate.

There's a place that I've found
As far as I can see
This place lies within
The depths of my dreams
In a garden surrounded
By fire and trees
Through the smoke a silhouette I can barely see
There's a man with an axe
Standing in the rain

Looked me straight in the eyes
This is what he had to say

Never fall asleep
You won't wake up
Destroy the guillotine
Before he does

And

All the vibrant colors I see
And the shades that fill the grey

Or one called No Sssweat

Blood fills your palms...

"A gathering of An-gels, appeared above my head. They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said! Come Sail Away, Come Sail Away, Come Sail Away with me, lads...[repeat]"

Come Sail Away - Styx.

It's a great line, optimistic, and at one of the best parts of any Rock song ever.

I love this song.

 

[Inconnu24]

"Now the whole word is gone, burnt up 'cuz of a democrat and republican cheech and chong" Technique- not too sure.

That's Immortal Technique's 'Leaving The Past' and it goes, "Humanity's gone; smoked up in a gravity bong by a Democrat-Republican Cheech and Chong". IT is awesome and has some very quotable lyrics.

On Topic
Some of my favorites:

Death Angel - Word To The Wise
"Shame when the ones who have wings don't use them to fly."

Incubus - Look Alive!
"A picture will survive, so smile and look alive. The camera lens is opening; the wider angle's yours."

 

[Micklet]

"FRENCH TOAST!!!!!"-"Yeah Toast" bob and tom show

Also "Gotta kick at the darkness til it bleeds daylight"-BNL(I know they quoted this from an album name or a song title, but I do like their use of it in the context) its from Lovers in a Dangerous Time.

 

[Timewave Zero]

[Viper1265]

if you could find some way to be
a little bit less afraid of me

from inside my head say i shouldent kill you yet.

Guess who and what!

"Even old New York
Was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!"

"How does it feel
To be on your own?
With no direction home?
Like a complete unknown?
Like a rolling stone."

I swear that there's no better songwriter than Bob Dylan.

Anything from Weird Al Yankovic at his most inspired.

Also this, by Tori Amos:
"So you are a superstar? Get off that cross, we need the wood!"

By P!nk:
"Keep your drinks, just give me the money."

But if you want to make me cry, just play me the terribly sad Downbound Train or Bobby Jean by Bruce Springsteen.
Tears every time, guaranteed.

But one that most of you won't be able to get is this:
"Det var i Varadero
jag mötte Don Quixote.
Jag kom från Las Americas,
Du Ponts berömda slott.
Det ligger där på udden,
en pärla i Karibien,
med Mexikanska Golfens
gröna vatten under
slottets altan.
Och i biblioteket
hänger ännu tavlorna
av hustru och barn."


My translation, that doesn't do it justice:

Spoiler

It was in Varadero
I met Don Quixote.
I came from Las Americas,
the famous castle of Du Pont.
It lies there on the peninsula
A pearl in the Caribbean,
with the green water
of the Gulf of Mexico
beneath the castle's terrace.
And in the library
the paintings of wife
and children still hang.

Either your right and it doesn't. Or it's not that good. Or it needs the music. Or I don't get it.
