Elvis Costello is the king of first line lyrics.

''Don't start me talking, I could talk all night....''
''Well I just don't know where to begin....''

''Well I heard there was a secret chord.''

I want to know where to find that secret chord; if it pleases God surely it'll be a smash on the Earthly plain.


TimRogersFucksKids  said about 9 months ago:

''Well I heard there was a secret chord.''

In a similar vein, I've always been a fan of;

''I stepped into an avalanche, it covered up my soul''

Not sure it's been said already but the opening line to Modern Lovers - Hospital is my fave at the moment. So weird and funny yet sad at the same time.
''When you get out of the hospital, Let me back into your life again''


Jerm  said about 7 months ago:

The rest is empty with no brain, the clever nerd,
the best emcee with no chain, you ever heard

Figaro- Doom (Madvillainy)

More than one line but I've always liked:

And when it's dark he makes the highplains
On his quarter horse, with a canvas sack
And the stars they bleed together like the flames inside a forge
The Earth is molten, time is stretching on a rack
Yet he labours like a shadow across the meadows of the moon
A diver far beneath the breakers on the rocks

Highplains Mailman- Gareff Liddiard

''To get up the bond for an inner west flat/He'd work for anybody if he wasn't working for her dad.''


Hellzapoppin  said about 7 months ago:

Good stuff Monty, though I prefer this from later in the song:

''We might as well do it next week, cause we've met everybody that we're ever gonna meet''

montyclift  said about 7 months ago:

cheers hellza, i think the whole conversation of that song is one of rogers best...through the 470 to circular quay, to mobiles homes and public phones....

sigh.


Hellzapoppin  said about 7 months ago:

Yah, the mobile home and public phone line gets me every time. Pizza Guy stands out as one of his finest as well, from ''Grab a six pack on the way home'' to the one I adore ''Into the Datsun and go, to another Mass Appeal show.''... sigh indeed.

'the ashtray says you've been up all night....'


looch  said about 7 months ago:

For you Monty (if a verse is allowed)

Hey wake up
Your eyes weren't open wide
For the last couple of miles
You've been swerving from side to side

You're gonna make me spill my beer
If you don't learn how to steer
