Favorite line, lines or stanza of any song ever recorded.

Every day when I get home from work, I feel so frustrated, the boss is a jerk. So, I grabbed my sticks and go out to the shed and I banged on the drum like it was the boss' head. I don't want to work; I just want to bang on the drum all day.

    I woke up in a Soho doorway, a policeman knew my name. He said, "You can go sleep at home tonight, if you can get up and walk away."

    Good question Skifredo. There is one correct answer. The most poetic words sung by any hairless ape are:

    Hush, my darling, don't fear, my darling,
    The lion sleeps tonight
    Hush, my darling, don't fear, my darling,
    The lion sleeps tonight
    Wah oh oh, wah oh oh, wah oh wimoweh
    Weeheeheehee dee heeheeheehee weeoh aweem away
    Weeheeheehee dee heeheeheehee weeoh aweem away

    ROAR!!!

    From The Card Cheat by the Clash. There’s something about the gusto in their delivery:

    “From the Hundred Year War to the Crimea
    With a lance and a musket and a Roman spear
    To all of the men who have stood with no fear
    In the service of the King”

    This one isn’t a song it’s a poem
    “ For my unconquerable soul. I have not winced nor cried aloud.
    My head is bloody, but unbowed.”

    "Dead Man Fall" - "Bang Your Drum"
    I've been thinking about the things that are stuck inside in my head and I can’t get them out.
    I've been waking at four in the morning, I don’t know why I can’t get back to sleep again tonight.
    Keep banging on
    Banging on your drum
    Keep banging on
    And your day will come
    Keep banging on
    Banging on your drum
    And they will hear you

    I sit looking round, I look at my face in the mirror. I know I’m worth nothing, without you. In life, One and one don’t make two, one and one make one, and I’m looking for that free ride, for me, I’m looking for you!

    I’ll pay any price just to get you, surrender my good life for bad. To find you, I’ll stand naked stoned and be stabbed. I call that a bargain……..

    The best I ever had.

    I just heard this song today and thought about this thread. The great lyrics are pretty much the whole song. So here it is... and have a drink on me, boys!

    Whiskey, gin and brandy
    With a glass, I'm pretty handy
    I'm tryin' to walk a straight line
    On sour mash and cheap wine

    So, join me for a drink, boys
    We're gonna make a big noise
    Don't worry about tomorrow
    Take it today
    Forget about the check, we'll get hell to pay
    Have a drink on me

    I'm dizzy, drunk and fighting
    On tequila, white lightnin'
    Yeah, my glass is gettin' shorter
    On whiskey, ice and water

    So come on, have a good time
    And get blinded out of your mind
    Don't worry about tomorrow
    Take it today
    Forget about the check, we'll get hell to pay
    Have a drink on me

    Now, down in Mexico they've got a little place called Boystown

    I said "there's plenty more where that came from" and the lights went out

    And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
    The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had

    Then it comes to be
    That the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    Was just a freight train coming your way

    If you don't start drinkin'
    I'm gonna leave

    They say there's a heaven for those who will wait. Some say it's better but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. The sinners are much more fun. Only the good die young.

    clutch-the yeti

    Across the plain I see a figure,
    Every instant growing bigger.
    Instinct tells me to run away
    While faith proposes that I wave.
    He approaches to a rod.
    I whisper up a prayer to God.
    The stranger asks me with a grin,
    "Do you have the time my friend?
