Songs with Clever Lines
So which lines jump out at you as especially clever or well written?
To start: "We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies" ("Synchronicity II," the Police)
"Is her power all in her club sandwich?" ("Waitress," Tori Amos)

Life's Been Good - Joe Walsh
I have a mansion, forget the price
Ain't never been there. They tell me it's nice
My Maseratti does one-eighty-five
I lost my license, now l don't drive
It's tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody's so different, l haven't changed

Up To No Good Livin’-Chris Stapleton
I used to drink like a fish and run like a dog
Done a whole lotta **bleep** not permitted by law
People call me the Picasso of paintin' the town
But I've finally grown up
And I finally changed from that someone I was to somebody I ain't
But she finds it hard to believe that she's turned me around
You know I'll probably die before I live all mine
Up to no good livin' down

You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Part of the plan Dan Fogelberg
Was hard to pick just one verse but
this is Verse Five:
Your conscience awakes and you see
your mistakes
And you wish someone would buy
your confessions
The days miss their mark and the
night gets so dark
And some kind of message comes
through to you
Some kind of message shoots through

Under A Raging Moon - Roger Daltrey
Like a demon, I could feel the madness
Running through the crowd
We were freedom
From the moment that we hit the ground
And the wild man, he laid the thunder down.
A tribute to Keith Moon.

Subterranean Homesick Blues (Dylan)
"Oh, get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance
Learn to dance, get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift"

Oh Girl - Scorpions
I had my share of love and hate
Well, after all I found myself
'Cause it's you who makes me live
It's only you who can forgive
Sometimes life just takes the long way home

Mixed Emotions - The Stones
This coming and going is driving me nuts
This to-ing and fro-ing is hurting my guts
So get off the fence now, you're creasing your butt
Life is a party, let's get out and strut, yeah
Gotta love Mick Jagger! He's trying to make up with his girl . . . 🤣
