What are the Best Opening Lines on a Song Ever?

Mine are Oasis, Supersonic:

I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic
You can have it all but how much do you want it?

  • "Fuck you I hate you"'s all she said as she slapped my face and spit beer on me, and my pants are falling down

    Diesel Boy - Titty Twister
  • "Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
    When I said I'd like to smash every tooth
    In your head

    Oh ... sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking
    When I said by rights you should be
    Bludgeoned in your bed"
  • I can feel the earth begin to move, I hear my needle hit the groove...

    Good shout on Supersonic tho, my fav tune ever
  • "Well, it's Saturday night and I just got paid,
    Fool about my money, don't try to save,
    My heart says go go, have a time,
    Saturday night and I'm feelin' fine,"

    or just

    "A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-lop-bam-boom!"
  • "When the Red Red robin"

    Nothing else comes near.
  • or one that reminds me of being a lot younger and slimmer

    "I was a little too tall
    Could've used a few pounds
    Tight pants points hardly reknown
    She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
    And points all her own sitting way up high
    Way up firm and high "
  • "Its one o'clock and time for lunch.......dum de dum de dum"

    You have never been in love
    Until you've seen the stars
    Reflect in the reservoirs

    or

    Punctured bicycle
    on a hillside desolate
    Will nature make a man of me yet?

    or keeping it local:

    I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste,
    a flannel for my face
    Pyjamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
    I said to my reflection, let's get out of this place
    Passed the church and the steeple,
    the laundry on the hill
    Billboards and the buildings,
    memories of it still keep calling and calling
    But forget it all,
    I know I will!
  • Watch the world argue
    Argue with itself
    Who's gonna teach me
    Peace and happiness

    Dancing on The Jetty - INXS


    Oh I've decided not to try
    To understand my life
    Grasp the forces that deny
    They grapple with my drive
    Oh, my heart full of pain
    So I follow my groin not my brain

    Walking In The Shallows - Gene
  • A long, long time ago, I can still remember how that music used to make me smile...

    or

    I heard you on the wireless back in 1952...
  • Spring was never waiting for us, girl. It ran one step ahead...
  • 'we don't have to take this crap' style council
  • One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, rock...

    Got a wife and kids in Baltimore Jack I went out for a ride and I never went back.
  • Ooh boys cheeky girls
    Ooh girls cheeky boys

    FACT
  • "Let me tell you how it will be..."
  • By Cousin Joe from New Orleans (then a 66 year old blues singer)

    Ohhhh, I got trouble with my woman




















    And I got trouble with my wife

    Someone's got it in for me, they're writing stories in the press
    Whoever it is, I wish they'd cut it out quick but when they will I can only guess
    They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy
    She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me
    I can't help it if I'm lucky

    Dylan: Idiot Wind

    That's obviously in with a strong shout. Along with "Ra Ra-ah-ah-ah, Roma Roma-ma. GaGa, Oh la-la"
  • "I decree today that life
    Is simply taking and not giving
    England is mine - it owes me a living"

    Still ill - The Smiths

    You come up the hard way

    You're nothing"

  • 'Ive been working on a cocktail called grounds for divorce"

    Grounds for divorce (ELBOW)
  • intro followed by....... Do you like good music
  • "I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand"

    Nailed on FACT as it always wins these sort of discussions PLUS it's the only song (other than a folk song probably) that references Kent that I can think of.
  • What you want baby I got
    What you need You know I got it
    All I'm askin' is for a little respect

    Probably as much about the way it's sung by Aretha (or Otis) as the words themselves.

    OR

    I was happy in the haze of the drunken hour
    But heaven knows I'm miserable now.
  • She's got a smile that it seems to me
    Reminds me of childhood memories
    Where everything
    Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
    Now and then when I see her face
    She takes me away to that special place
    And if I'd stare too long
    I'd probably break down and cry
  • Deep down Louisiana close to New Orleans
    Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
    There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
    Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
    Who never ever learned to read and write so well
    But he could play the guitar just like a ringing a bell

    Go go
    Go Johnny go
