Always liked the 'shorter of breath, and one day closer to death' line from Time. Tbh you could pick almost any line from that song for this article.

Pink Floyd's lyrics are generally utter gash. There's no denying that Comfortably Numb is an ATG tune, but the lyrics are total bllkcos from start to finish.

Bit depressing but the pinnacle of Elliott Smith's Needle in the Hay:
"I'm taking the cure so I can be quiet wherever I want"

The best lyrics I've heard are Pulp Common People and in particular:

"She told me that her dad was loaded
I said, in that case I'll have rum and Coca-Cola"

and

"I took her to a supermarket
I don't know why
But I had to start it somewhere
So it started there"

Cardi B Bodak Yellow

"I don't bother with these h***
Don't let these h*** bother me
They see pictures, they say, "Goals"
Bi***, I'm who they tryna be
Look, I might just chill in some Bape
I might just chill with your boo
I might just feel on your babe
My pu*** feel like a lake
He wanna swim with his face
I'm like, "Okay"
I'll let him do what he want
He buy me Yves Saint Laurent
And the new whip
When I go fast as a horse
I got the trunk in the front
I'm the hottest in the street
Know you prolly heard of me
Got a bag and fixed my teeth
Hope you h*** know it ain't cheap
And I pay my mama bills
I ain't got no time to chill
Think these h*** be mad at me
Their baby father run a bill
Said little b***, you can't f*** with me
If you wanted to
These expensive, these is red bottoms
These is bloody shoes
Hit the store, I can get 'em both
I don't wanna choose
And I'm quick, cut a n*** off
So don't get comfortable
Look, I don't dance now
I make money moves (ayy, ayy)
Say I don't gotta dance
I make money move
If I see you and I don't speak
That means I don't f*** with you
I'm a boss, you a worker, b***
I make bloody moves"

A more light-hearted suggestion is Biggie's Nasty Boy:

And I don't stop, until I squirt
Jeans, skirt, butt-naked, it all works

"When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again"

You think those are good lyrics?

Refused have a bunch of beauties, but my faves are probably:

“I got Judas’ heart, Nietzsche’s soul, Dawkins’ cocck in a god-shaped hole”

(Dawkins Christ)

“And I'm still certain that what motivates me is more rewarding than any piece of paper could be”

(Summer Holiday vs Punk Routine)

Leonard Cohen - Chelsea Hotel #2

“You told me again you preferred handsome men
But for me you would make an exception” on his affair with Janis Joplin.

The Clash - Straight to Hell

“Let me tell you 'bout your blood bamboo kid
It ain't Coca-Cola, it's rice”

This is about children born to Vietnamese woman with US soldiers as fathers refused visas to enter the United States as families after the war.

Not one line but:

"Now those memories come back to haunt me, they haunt me like a curse,
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true, or is it something worse"
Springsteen - The River

"Love goes cold in the shades of doubt"
Libertines - Music when the light go out
