I go, "Mom, just get me a Pepsi, please? All I want's a Pepsi"
And she wouldn't give it to me
All I wanted was a Pepsi
Just one Pepsi
And she wouldn't give it to me
Just a Pepsi

From "Institutionalized" by Suicidal Tendencies.

Pretty much anything by Bob Dylan is the best lyric in a song. Here's one funny.
"I got a woman, she’s so mean
She sticks my boots in the washing machine
Sticks me with buckshot when I’m nude
Puts bubblegum in my food"
(I Shall Be Free No.10)

I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze in my hair
Blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans

Jolene by Ray LaMontagne

(Or Ray Lemonade as I call him in private)

Win the battle lose the war
I know we played the game before
When people were still real
I don't want this anymore
It's time for me to close the door
There's nothing left to feel

Blackball by The Offspring

"Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die'
There's a place for us"

Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits, innit

Stick a pony in me pocket
I'll fetch the suitcase from the van
'Cause if you want the best ones
But you don't ask questions
Then brother, I'm your man

'Cause where it all comes from is a mystery
Its like the changing of the seasons and the tides of the sea
But here's the one that's driving me berserk:
Why do only fools and horses work?

La la la laa la
La la la laa la
La la la laa la
La la la laa la

John Sullivan: Only Fools And Horses

"You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense."
- "Present Tense" by Pearl Jam.

If I could stick my pen in my heart
And spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would you think the boy is strange? Ain't he strange?

"I wish we had the hearts of children
Their eyes are wide and their love is pure
But we only dare to say 'please love me'
At the seventh glass of wine"

Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

"I'll never give a damn about my reputation,
The world's in trouble, there's no communication,
Everyone can say what they wanna say,
It never gets better anyway,
So why should I care about a bad reputation, anyway?"

-Bad Reputation, by Joan Jett

Two lyrics from Lily Allen's 'The Fear' stand out to me:

"I'll look at The Sun and I'll look in The Mirror. I'm on the right track, yeah, I'm on to a winner".

"And I am a weapon of massive consumption, it's not my fault, it's how I'm programmed to function"


The first one has a double meaning. The Sun and The Mirror were both UK tabloids at the time that focused on celebrity gossip. This is a dig at trashy journalism leading to a distorted perception (particularly of herself as she lost sight of who she was).

However, this was somewhat lost on international audiences at first. Regardless, the line still works when taken literally.

“Wave upon wave of demented avengers
March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream”
— Pink Floyd, Sheep, from the album Animals

“How can I be lost
If I've got nowhere to go?
Searched the seas of gold
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive?
And how can I blame you
When it's me I can't forgive?”

— Metallica, The Unforgiven III, from the album Death Magnetic
