Lines and Lyrics

[YankeeRebel]

Post a favorite line or lyric from a song. One that always catches your attention.

I guess I'll kick it off.

Poets priests and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no-one's jamming their transmission

The Police

The devil appeared like Jesus through the steam in the street
Showin' me a hand I knew even the cops couldn't beat
I felt his hot breath on my neck as I dove into the heat
It's so hard to be a saint when you're just a boy out on the street.

Springsteen

 

[outofyourmind]

Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

 

[YankeeRebel]

Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

I knew we would get some Beatles quotes was not expecting that to be the first.

 

[YankeeRebel]

I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still receive your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?
