    All night cooker, a happy hooker
    With two hands that could understand, the needs of a lonely man

    She ain't exactly pretty
    Ain't exactly small
    42-39-56
    You could say she's got it all

    Ain't no fairy story, ain't no skin-and-bones
    But you give all you got, weighin' in at 19 stone

    Way too many.

    I enjoy 50's to early 80's rock, pop, jazz, blues & country mostly. Blues and jazz up to today. Also like some 30's-40's big bands, swing (Goodman, Dorsey...)

    Jazz lyrics strike me the most, I guess.

    These two stick out.

    Jais Ian "At Seventeen"

    And those of us with ravaged faces
    Lacking in the social graces
    Desperately remained at home
    Inventing lovers on the phone
    Who called to say, "Come dance with me"
    And murmured vague obscenities
    It isn't all it seems
    At seventeen
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    “Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.”
    --Mark Twain.

    This morning it is from Jimmy Buffett's song Volcanco released in 1979


    Now I don't know, I don't know
    I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows
    One more now, I don't know, I don't know
    I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows


    But I don't want to land in the New York City
    I don't want to land in Mexico
    I don't want want to land on no Three Mile Island
    I don't want to see my skin aglow
    I don't want to land in Comanche sky park
    Or in Nashville, Tennessee
    I don't want to land in no San Juan airport
    Or in Yukon Territory
    I don't want to land in no San Diego
    I don't want to land in no Buzzard's Bay

    I don't want to land on no Ayatollah

    I got nothing more to say

    But, oh, how I lived my life for you
    Still you'd turn away
    Now, as I die for you
    My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name

    All these years I thought I was wrong
    Now I know it was you
    Raise your head, raise your face
    Your eyes, tell me who you think you are

    Killer, intruder, homicidal man.
    If you see me coming, run as fast as you can.
    A blood thirsty demon who's stalking the street.
    I hack up my victims like pieces of meat.
    Blood thirsty demon, sinister fiend,
    Bludgeonous slaughters, my evil deeds.

    My hammer's a cold piece of blood-lethal steel.
    I grin while you writhe with the pain that I deal.
    Swinging the hammer, I hack through their heads,
    Deviant defilers, you're next to be dead.
    I unleash my hammer with sadistic intent.
    Pounding, surrounding, slamming through your head. Yeah!

    Their bodies convulse, in agony, and, pain.
    I mangle their faces, till no features remain.
    A blade for the butchering, I cut them to shreds.
    First take out the organs, then cut off the head.
    The remains of flesh now sop under my feet.
    One more bloody massacre, the murders' complete.
    I seek to dismember, a **** fiend.
    And, blood baths are my way of getting clean.
    I lurk in the alleys, wait for the kill.
    I have no remorse for the blood that I spill
    A merciless butcher who lives underground.
    I'm out to destroy you and ,I will, cut you down.
    I see you, and, I'm waiting ,for Black Friday.

    Tomorrow
    Song by Silverchair ‧ 1995

    "You say that money isn't everything
    But I'd like to see you live without it
    You think you can keep on going, living like a king
    Ooh babe, but I strongly doubt it"

    I've been thinking about this since this thread appeared.
    I'm not sure I have a single favorite line.
    This verse from Jane Siberry's song Calling All Angels, gorgeously covered by the Wailin' Jennys, always makes me sniffle.
    Oh, and every day you gaze upon the sunset
    With such love and intensity
    Why it's almost as if you could only crack the code
    Then you'd finally understand what this all means
    Ah, but if you could, do you think you would trade it all
    All the pain and suffering?
    Ah, but then you'd miss the beauty of the light upon this earth
    And the -- and the sweetness of the leaving
    https://youtu.be/-zBAwz66wWY?si=ugSVT8meENresMgX
    Another favorite - one that crystallizes the whole Pete Townshend/'OO/1960s Mod thing is the bridge (for lack of a better term) from the song The Punk Meets the Godfather from Quadrophenia.
    I have to be careful not to preach
    I can't pretend that I can teach
    And yet I've lived your futures out
    By pounding stages like a clown
    And on the dance floor broken glass
    And bloody faces slowly pass
    The numbered seats in empty rows
    It all belongs to me, you know

    https://youtu.be/B7FrIt352VE?si=G2dU2rcbOtbsW3p9

    Beyond that... there's a million more. :blush:
