Great OPENING lines from songs

[Jahooli]

Friends say it's fine Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood

 

[El Presidente]

With the money from her accident she bought herself a mobile home
So at least she could get some enjoyment out of being alone

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Not TECHNICALLY an opening line from a song, but close enough dammit ...

[Fourteenth Eye]

you never listen to the words
You're gonna get what you deserve
And did you ever think that you just might be wrong sometimes

 

[Jahooli]

I wanna get you in my tent, tent, tent, tent, tent.
Where we can both experiment-ment-ment-ment-ment.

 

[MattBackHome]

"Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me. No hope, no harm - just another false alarm."

 

[keaton]

For my money it's either
This. One. Is for you.
This. One. Is for you.

Girl when I close my eyes
I realise
I don't know what I'd do
without your loving
And I can't hold it any longer



or


I must be tripping it's true
I'm losing hold of my cool
And I really ought to let you go
Don't even make any sense
It's getting crazy intense
Why you wanna make me lose control



Both by the irrestible Shane Ward

 

[Lord Large]

I wander lonely streets
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from

Cracking William Blake rip-off

I wander through each chartered street,
Near where the chartered Thames does flow,
And mark in every face I meet,
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.

 

[DIFFBROOK]

Fantastic set of Lyrics by Chris Difford of Squeeze. He just seems to put a whole scene to a few words

"There she sits in an empty room
The look on her face says it all
A bruise appears round a crying eye
As the tear drops sadly fall
He knocked her over he hit her
And told her she's stupid
Hes high as a kite once again
She knows that tough love is needed
To save the love of her friend "

'On a dark desert highway...................'

Classic!

Btw Because of the line from Saturday's Kids '....wear v-neck shirts and baggy trousers............' , I will not, to this day, be seen dead in a v-neck shirt

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Tune in tune out
youve got sit back
do you like what you see
Reality TV
It could be me and you
filmed with nothing to do
like animals in a zoo
Reality TV

[Trufflehound]

Oh why do you, catch my eye, then turn away?

I take then, that you never "drink lots of beer and wait for half time results" either?

Top tunes by the way.

Top tunes by the way.

I'm virtually teetotal and listening for half-time results can be done covertly, unlike being seen in a v-neck shirt

 

[getreal1]

Another town, another place,
Another woman to sit on my face SAXON

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street

 

[Jahooli]

Hey you, don't watch that, watch this.
This is the heavy heavy monster sound.
The nuttiest sound around!

 

[Arthritic Toe]

The Mississippi delta was shining like a National guitar.

 

[csider]

forget everything and remember.
