Best one liners in lyrics?

[Grem]

"But he knew,

he knew more than me or you,

You could tell by the picture he drew

It totally something new

Oh where was he going to"

Kansas,  Portrait 

[Rain]

It only believes
In a pile of dead leaves
And a moon
That's the color of bone

November, Tom Waits. 

I'd quote the entire song, actually.

 

Also: 

No one speaks English and everything’s broken

Tom Traubert's Blues, Tom Waits.

Smash it up, and your blow wave hairstyles

The best one liners in comedy.....

?

Steven Wright is the master....

I bought some powdered water, but I don't know what to add.

In Las Vegas I had a furious argument about what I considered to be an odd number.

I went into a place to eat and it said breakfast any time....so I ordered french toast during the renaissance.

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis
In the summertime

Rusty scalpel cuts to the bone for all to see what you've become

not so sure if the wound will heal

but it doesn't really matter because you bled out long ago.

Let me tell you about Sweden
Only country where the clouds are interesting

The Stranglers - Sweden (All Quiet on the Eastern Front)

[SteveStrummerUK]

She's got 36-24-36 hips
She's got 36-24-36 hips
She's got 36-24-36 hips
She's got 36-24-36 hips
She's got 36-24-36 hips
That was the size of her t1ts

The Stranglers - T1ts

[SteveStrummerUK]

The dredged up mastodon has got his glasses on
He's never seen the sh1t from the La Brea pit

The Stranglers - Dead Loss Angeles

[SteveStrummerUK]

I hate you now, I always will
And when you're dead I'll hate you still
I'll have my way, I'll make you pay
And I don't care if you suffer 'cos I know that it will surely make my day

The Stranglers - I Hate You

[SteveStrummerUK]

I don't need no blind belief
I don't need no comic relief
I don't need to see no scars
I don't need Jesus Christ Superstar

 

Motörhead - (Don’t Need) Religion

[Rain]

Oh babe, I wanna put my log in your fireplace...

Who else...

 

Awful but certainly memorable. 

[whoisp]

‘We got this king size to ourselves
Don’t have to share with no one else
Don’t keep your secrets to yourself
It’s karma sutra show and tell
Woah, there’s loving in your eyes
That pulls me closer
It’s so subtle, I’m in trouble
But I’d love to be in trouble with you’

Marvin Gaye’ the dirty dog lol
