Best opening lyrics in a song


Liam

Recommended Posts

I thought of a few more also....

"People say I'm the life of the party because I tell a joke or two" - Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Tracks of My Tears

"Somebody called me on the phone, They said hey, is Dee Dee home, Do you wanna take a walk? Do ya wanna go and cop? Do ya wanna go get some chinese rocks?" - Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers - Chinese Rocks (also one of my favorite opening guitar riffs, maybe we'll save that topic for another day?)

"I've come on a few years from my Hollywood Highs The best of the last, the cleanest star they ever had" - David Bowie, Cracked Actor

"The tax man's taken all my dough,
And left me in my stately home,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon."

"Granny's always ravin' and rantin',

And she's always puffin' and pantin',
And she's always screaming and shouting,
And she's always brewing up tea."


"Here's a story about a sinner,
He used to be a winner who enjoyed a life of prominence and position,
But the pressures at the office and his socialite engagements,
And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition,
It turned him to the booze,
And he got mixed up with a floosie
And she led him to a life of indecision.
The floosie made him spend his dole
She left him lying on Skid Row
A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission.
It's such a shame."

Ray Davies in his pomp was a brilliant lyricist.

''I used to be jealous of Arron Afflalo.'' :shifty:

''I'm living in the 21st century

doing something mean to it

doing better than anybody you ever seen doing it

screams from da haters, got a nice ring to it

I guess every superhero needs his theme music''
