Best song, best line, best lyric RIGHT NOW

[Skylarker]

Warm lights from the grand houses blind me
Haves cannot stand have-nots

I love that line. LOVE it.

If I ever got a tattoo, that would very possibly be a contender.

[Skylarker]

(Seriously, these two threads have been merged?)

Apparently, you're right, they have. Which is stupid, as Morrissey lyrics (by and large) are infinitely better than anyone else's.

[Pav1ova]

Where taxi drivers never stop talking
Under slate grey Victorian sky,
Here you will find, despair and I
And here I am every last inch of me is yours,
Yours,
For evermore

[CrystalGeezer]

I am, hated for loving.

[Giselle]

When the gulf between all the things I need
And the things I receive
Is an ancient ocean wide

[Irregular Regular]

No hope, no harm
Just another false alarm

[Pav1ova]

But it's so hard for our hearts to combine
And why?

[Giselle]

Won't somebody stop me
From thinking
From thinking all the time?

[Giselle]

Five names that I can hardly
Stand to hear
Including yours and mine
And one more chick who isn't here...

"Bad Sneakers" - Steely Dan

[Irregular Regular]

I've changed but I am in pain...

[MozAngeles818]

I've always been true to you.
In my own strange way
I've always been true to you.
In my own sick way.

[Pav1ova]

But my heart is open, my heart is open to you.

Goin' Mobile by The Who


I don't care about pollution
I'm an air-conditioned gypsy
That's my solution
Watch the police and the tax man miss me
I'm mobile
Oooooh, yeah, hee!

Mobile, mobile, mobile yeah

[Giselle]

See the fool I'll be
Still running 'round
On the flesh rampage
Still running 'round

[CrystalGeezer]

See the fool I'll be
Still running 'round
On the flesh rampage
Still running 'round

The way he sings those lines...gah!

[Irregular Regular]

I look at yours
You laugh at mine

[The Seeker of Good Songs]

And where would I be
Without you
I'd be packin' my bags when I need to stay
I'd be chasin' every breeze that blows my way
I'd be buildin' my kingdom just to watch it fade
Away
It's true
That's me without you
Don't know where I'd be
Without you

[Giselle]

At every pay phone
There's somebody cryin'
All the streets are slick with tears...

[CrystalGeezer]

And the drunkards keep on drinking
And oh, my room is cold
I'm disputing the bill
I will sleep in my clothes

[CrystalGeezer]

David, the wind blows
The wind blows ...
Bits of your life away
Your friends all say ...
"Where is our boy ? Oh, we've lost our boy"
But they should know
Where you've gone
Because again and again you've explained that
You're going to ...
