What's your favorite lyric from a song?

Pile - Don’t Touch Anything:

Those eyes
Swam pretty deep
Let my god
Play referee
But he only speaks
In Japanese

-
Pile - Leaning on a Wheel:

Getting in our own way
And blaming traffic
And a shitty plan
And other things that are assumed you understand

Head down
And eyes peeled
I wouldn’t call it driving, more like leaning on a wheel

Not happy
And not in love
But let's have a baby to save the marriage that we made up

It's getting in our own way

Always felt it fell a little too close to home:

"But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell" - Matchbox 20

Beatles Within you and Without youAnd the time will come when you see we're all one, and life flows on within you and without you.

@johnto ,

It used to puzzle me why that song used to get so much flak in the first couple of decades after the release of Pepper.


I guess gradually the world is finally catching up with George:


"We were talking about the space between us all

And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion

Never glimpse the truth, then it’s far too late, when they pass away"

Even in 2021 it’s heavy stuff indeed.

Back in ’67 it was probably a little too much for most listeners.

"She was filing her nails
 while they're dragging the lake..."

Elvis Costello - Watching the Detectives...
