    :lol: Very profound!

    Favourite lyric is an obvious one:

    I don't want to start any blasphemous rumors
    But I think that God's got a sick sense of humor
    And when I die, I expect to see him laughing.


    I also love:

    It's not the side-effects of the cocaine, so I'm thinking that it must be love. - Valentine's Day card sentiment for me, every year without fail.

    As for quotes, there are loads but the one that's always stuck with me is: life's a shit sandwich... but only if you're a shithead :thumb:

    Actually, the lyrics to that entire song tbh. I'm an emo at heart, clearly :o

    emo? anyway, class song that.

    If loving those lyrics is emo and wrong then I don't want to be halfway normal and right :heart:

    I love Paul Simon's lyrics, especially:

    "It's a turn-around jump shot, it's everybody jump start
    It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts
    Medicine is magical and magical is art
    Think of the boy in the bubble and the baby with the baboon heart."


    And...

    "You take up my time
    Like some cheap magazine
    When I could have been learning something
    Oh well, you know what I mean"

    Pulp, "Like A Friend"

    I relate.

    The Smiths are actually amazing, though...

    There's songs that I like more but I really love these lyrics.

    And how can we win
    When fools can be kings?
    Don't waste your time
    Or time will waste you

    No-one's going to take me alive
    The time has come to make things right
    You and I must fight for our rights
    You and I must fight to survive
