Favorite song lyric?

[serafina]

I know it is dorky, but I'm not too happy with the male sex at the moment.

Superstar
Where you from, how's it going?
I know you
Gotta clue, what you're doing?
You can play brand new to all the other chicks out here
But I know what you are, what you are, baby

Look at you
Gettin' more than just a re-up
Baby, you
Got all the puppets with their strings up
Fakin' like a good one, but I call 'em like I see 'em
I know what you are, what you are, baby

Womanizer, Woman-Womanizer
You're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, Oh you're a womanizer, baby
You, you, you are
You, you, you are
Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You got me going
(You) You're oh so charming
(You) But I can't do it
(You) Womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You say I'm crazy
(You) I got you crazy
(You) Your nothing but a
(You) Womanizer

Daddy-O
You got the swagger of a champion
Too bad for you
Just can't find the right companion
I guess when you have one too many, makes it hard
It could be easy, who you are, that's just who you are baby

Lollipop
Must mistake me as a sucker
To think that I
Would be a victim not another
Say it, play it how you wanna
But no way I'm ever gonna fall for you, never you, baby

Womanizer, Woman-Womanizer
You're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, Oh you're a womanizer, baby
You, you, you are
You, you, you are
Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You got me going
(You) You're oh so charming
(You) But I can't do it
(You) Womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You say I'm crazy
(You) I got you crazy
(You) Your nothing but a
(You) Womanizer

Maybe if we both lived in a different world
It would be all good, and maybe I could be ya girl
But I can't 'cause we don't

Womanizer, Woman-Womanizer
You're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, Oh you're a womanizer, baby
You, you, you are
You, you, you are
Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You got me going
(You) You're oh so charming
(You) But I can't do it
(You) Womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)

(You) You say I'm crazy
(You) I got you crazy
(You) Your nothing but a
(You) Womanizer

Boy, don't try to front
I, I know just-just what you are, are, are (x2)
Womanizer, Woman-Womanizer
You're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, Oh you're a womanizer, baby

I am tall and I am thin
Of an enviable height
And I've been known to be quite handsome
From a certain angle and a certain light
Well I entered into O'Malley's
Said, "O'Malley I have a thirst"
O'Malley merely smiled at me
said "You wouldn't be the first"
I knocked on the bar and pointed
To a bottle on the shelf
And as O'Malley poured me out a drink
I sniffed and crossed myself
My hand decided that the time was nigh
And for a moment it slipped from view
And when it returned, it fairly burned
With confidence anew
Well the thunder from my steely fist
Made all the glasses jangle
When I shot him, I was so handsome
It was the light, it was the angle...

O'Malleys Bar

specifically...

Baby (uh-huh) girl you you need a change of mind baby (let me tell yah) girl you need a change of mind

Why march in pick-it lines? Burn bras and carry signs, now I'm for women's rights I just want equal nights - help!

Baby (yeah) girl you need a change of mind baby girl you need a change of mind

All men don't discriminate this man emancipates now I won't chain you up just fill your loving cup hey, hey you need me girl baby

[Fever]

Rap's probably a cop-out, because lyrically there are a ton of hooks that are poetry, but my favorite to this day remains Tupac, and it's hard to slim it down, but I saw him in the early days w/ Digital Underground and this was his breakout:

I Get Around - 1993

{Tupac}
Back to get wreck
All respect to those who break their neck to keep their hoes in check
Cause hoes, they sweat a brother majorly
And I don't know why, your girl keeps paging me
She tell me that she needs me, cries when she leaves me
And every time she sees me, she squeeze me, lady take it easy!
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me, I don't want it if it's that easy
Ayo bust it, baby got a problem saying bye bye
Just another hazard of a fly guy
You ask why, don't matter, my pockets got fatter
Now everybody's looking for the latter
And ain't no need in being greedy
If you wanna see me dial the beeper number baby when you need me
And I'll be there in a jiffy
Don't be picky, just be happy with this quickie
But when you learn, you can't tie me down
Baby doll, check it out, I get around

What you mean you don't know? I get around
The Underground just don't stop for hoes, I get around
Still down with the Underground, I get around
Yeah, ayo Shock, let them hoes know

{Shock G}
Now you can tell from my everday fits, I ain't rich
So cease and desist with them tricks (tricks)
I'm just another black man caught up in the mix (mix)
Trying to make a dollar out of fifteen cents (A dime and a nickel)
Just cause I'm a freak don't mean that we could hit the sheets
Baby I can see, that you don't recognize me
I'm Shock G, the one who put the satin on your panties
Never knew a hooker that could share me, I get around

{Money B}
What's up love, how you doing? (All right)
Well I've been hanging sanging, trying to do my thang
Oh, you heard that I was banging
Your home girl you went to school with, that's cool
But did she tell you about her sister and your cousin? Thought I wasn't
See, weekends were made for Michelob
But it's a Monday, my day, so just let me hit it, yo
And don't mistake my statement for a clown
We can keep in the down low long as you know, that I get around

{Tupac}
2Pacalypse Now don't stop for hoes, I get around
Why I ain't call you? Ha ha, please

Finger tips on the hips as I dip, gotta get a tight grip, don't slip
Loose lips sink ships, it's a trip
I love the way she licks her lips, see me jocking
Put a little twist in her hips cause I'm watching
Conversations on the phone til the break of dawn
Now we all alone, why the lights on?
Turn 'em off, time to set it off, get you wet and soft
Something's on your mind, let it off
You don't know me, you just met me, you won't let me
Well if I couldn't have it (silly rabbit) why you sweating me?
It's a lot of real G's doing time
Cause a groupy bit the truth and told a lie
You picked the wrong guy baby if you're too fly
You need to hit the door, search for a new guy
Cause I only got one night in town
Break out or be clown, baby doll are you down?
I get around

[Kyle E. Coyote]

I'm just now realizing how many songs I like that are music-driven, and lyrically subpar. But in any case, even a retarded dog finds a bone every once in awhile, so here are the best lyrics from some of the bands in my iTunes store:

"I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be the sun, in somebody else's sky, but why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?"
Pearl Jam, Black

"And then I'll turn to her, as I turn out the light, and say my darling, you were wonderful tonight. Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."
Eric Clapton, Wonderful Tonight

"Come down, and waste away with me, down with me. Slow how you always wanted it to be... I'm in over my head, and out of head she sang.... And I wonder, when I sing along with you; if everything could ever feel this real forever, if anything could ever be this good again. The only thing I'll ever ask of you; you gotta promise not to stop when I say 'when.' And she sang...."
Foo Fighters, Everlong

"You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, maybe you might find, you'll get what you need."
Rolling Stones, You Can't Always Get What You Want

"Every morning there's a halo hanging from the corner of my girlfriend's four-post bed. I know it's not mine but I'll see if I can use it for the weekend or a one-night stand... you wouldn't understand."
Sugar Ray, Every Morning

"Because tramps like us, baby we were born to run."
Bruce Springsteen, Born to Run

"Pissing the night away, pissing the night away, oh, Danny boy, Danny boy, Danny boy...."
Chumbawamba, Tubthumping

"It's been awhile, since I could, hold my head up high, and it's been awhile, since I could call you. I know it's been awhile since I've seen the way, candles light your face, and though it's been awhile, I can still remember just the way you taste."
Staind, Its Been Awhile

"Its been a bittersweet symphony, this life. Trying to make ends meet your a slave to the money, then you die."
The Verve, Bittersweet Symphony

"They was askin' if you were 'round, how you's doin', where you could be found. I told 'em you were livin' downtown, drivin' all the old men crazy."
Thin Lizzy, The Boys Are Back in Town

"Now next Friday come and I didn't get the rent, so out the door I went."
George Thorogood, One Scotch One Bourbon One Beer

"But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it alright, so I said baby, what've I got to lose?"
Prince, Little Red Corvette

"Driving faster in my car, falling farther from just what we are. I smoke a cigarette and lie some more, these conversations kill... falling faster in my car."
Stone Temple Pilots, Big Empty

"I woke today, like any other day... you know I should've stayed in bed."
Soundgarden, The Day I Tried to Live

Here's a few of my favs:

"The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter
I did it like this - I did it like that
I did it with a whiffle ball bat"

"Well I'm the King of Boggle, there is none higher
I get eleven points off the word Quagmire."

[Five Inch Taint]

It's a boring day - I've got nothing to do
Except to get a load of retards and drive 'em to the zoo

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo (x2)

Load 'em on a bus just for laughs
Down a winding road stepping on the gas
Down a winding road just daydreaming
Down a winding road with the retards screaming

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo (x2)

One of them blowing a big spit bubble
Slam on the brakes at the first sign of trouble
Head on collision bodies everywhere
Head on collision retards beware

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo (x2)


-Dead Milkmen

[Five Inch Taint]

Revival Never Goes Out Of Style

i remember those days, when we were screaming for change.
when it was more than just fashion and fame.
our goals all seemed one and the same, and we sang the song of revolution.
the sky seemed endless there was no stopping us.
and i felt, we felt, like nothing could stand in our way.
and if i scream as loud as i can, it's got to fucking break,
we will raise our fists and fight for our own place.
all this time wishing our voices could be heard,
now we finally have a voice and no one says a fucking word.
so let's scream as loud as we can and make it fucking break,
and let nothing stand in our way, stand in our way.

-Walls of Jericho

(I just copied and pasted)

[Kyle E. Coyote]

"Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty, stinging clear... but I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear take the wheel and steer. Its driven me before, and it seems to have a vague, haunting mass-appeal... but lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel."
Incubus, Drive
