Your Favourite Lyric

[Whitley Journalism]

I'm in a thread posting mood!

The latest new thread is one for all genre's of music, so don't feel put off due to it being too heavy or such like.

All you have to do is post your favourite sentence from a song that is lyrically brilliant, or quite clever. Post as many as you like and I'll pick the best one every week.

I'll start with one of my personal favourites: (I know a lot of you will disagree!)

Lyric: 'You'll get knocked the fu*k out, cos your mouth's writing cheques that your ass can't cash'
Song: Full Nelson
Artist: Limp Bizkit
Album: The Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavoured Water

It's not too meaningful and deep like, let's say a Led Zep song, but it's quite clever if you ask me...

Fire away with your suggestions.

On a side note you could revamp this also, some quality s*it lyrics always go a long way

20 Worst Song Lyrics

[Whitley Journalism]

Haha - some good ones there

[OldWelshGuy]

I love this Tupac rhyme.

I refuse to be a role model
I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottles
I make mistakes, I learn from everyone
And when its said and done
I bet this Brotha be a better one
If I'm upset, you don't stress
Never forget, that God hasn't finished with me yet
I feel his hand on my brain
When I write rhymes, I go blind, and let the lord do his thang
But am I less holy
Cause I choose to puff a blunt and drink a beer with my homies
Before we find world peace
We gotta find peace and end the war on the streets
My ghetto gospel

Elton John had a song called indian Sunset. it was mixed with The original Tupac track and released as ghetto gospel. Personally I much preferred the Akon version YouTube - 2pac ft. Akon - Ghetto Gospel ( DJ One Remix)

I'm in a Police mood today, so i'm gonna go with that for now. I don't think i could pick the best lyric EVER, but i really like these ones.

you don't have to sell you body to the night
Song: Roxanne
Artist: Sting & The Police
Album: Outlandos d'Amour

[PR Design]

Some say I'm arrogant,
Some say I'm laid back,
From a council flat,
Paying higher rate tax.

Song: Dreamy Days
Artist: Roots Manuva
Album: Run Come Save Me

No entirely sure why I like it so much, but a lot of his lyrics are 'real'...
