I got a letter from the government the other day
I opened and read it, it said they were suckers
They wanted me for their army or whatever
Picture me giving a damn I said never0 -

you never close your eyes anymore when i kiss your lips
and there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips

but baby, baby i know it0 -

Big William got it right ... has to be Plaistow Patricia. May not be the greatest song ever (although it is good) but as a set of opening lines they are incomparable.
My personal favourite is:
Irish blood, English heart
This I'm made of
There is no one on earth I'm afraid of
And no regime can buy or sell me0 -

I'm going senile or something. How did I get that wrong. Used to play in when I was in a band but that was 30 + years ago.

step out the front door like a ghost into the fog where no one notices the
contrast of white on white.
and in between the moon and you the angels get a better view of the crumbling
difference between wrong and right0 -
And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start
To mould a new reality
Closer to the heart.0 -

Why boasteth thyself
Oh, evil men
Playing smart
And not being clever?
I said, you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity (if a-so a-so)
But the goodness of Jah, Jah

There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their please.
The trouble with the maples,
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light.
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made.
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade.
There is trouble in the forest,
And the creatures all have fled,
As the maples scream "Oppression!"
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light."
Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw.0 -
for best opening lines got to be cypress hill.

From the sublime to the ridiculous by indulging my fondness for old show tunes:
I've been married and married, and often I've sighed
"I'm never a bridesmaid, I'm always the bride."
I never divorced them, I hadn't the heart
Yet remember these sweet words: "Til death do us part!"
I married many men, a ton of them.
And yet I was untrue to none of them,
because I bumped off every one of them
to keep my love alive.
(from "To Keep My Love Alive" by Rodgers and Hart. I recommend the Ella Fitzgerald version)0 -
