It can be a couple words, a few bars or a chorus or whatever… just post some of your favorite lyrics. Feel free to post more than once!

(make sure to source the lyric as well, in case anyone else likes it and want’s to check out the artist)

> Dead in the middle of little Italy, little did we know that we riddled some middle man who didn’t do diddly

Gah, how can anyone have a favourite lyric? I must have hundreds. We need a “Guess that Song” thread. Anyway, more lyrics:

> There’s a mass without roofs  
> A prison to fill  
> There’s a country’s soul that reads post no bills  
> There’s a strike and a line of cops outside of the mill  
> There’s a right to obey  
> And a right to kill

- Rage Against the Machine, “Calm Like a Bomb” (from Battle of Los Angeles)

> The fact is I would rather sit back and bomb some rappers  
> So this is like a full blown attack I’m launchin at 'em

Sorry, sorry! Here, have some lyrics:

> I write you in spite of years of silence.  
> You’ve cleaned up, found Jesus,  
> Things are good or so I hear.  
> This bottle of Steven’s  
> Awakens ancient feelings.  
> Like father, stepfather, the son is drowning in the flood.

- Weezer, “Say It Ain’t So” (from The Blue Album)
