'Real privilege, it will take your problems all away'

That whole album is full of killer lyrics!

I am stronger than Mensa, Mailer and Miller I spat out Plath and Pinter

It's a masterpiece. Whiteamerica and Archives of Pain are my two favourites tracks. Not an easy listen though

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of seèx that's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life's a bore
So quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down

"I know I ain't doing much, doing nothing means a lot to me."

AC/DC - Down Payment Blues. The entire song is an absolute mastery of wordplay but that's my favourite line. Probably AC/DC's best lyrically.


"And they'll tell you black is really white, the Moon is just the Sun at night."
Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell.

The vocal chords of elephants
And the characters of mice
They're singing "whiskey, whiskey"
So good they named it twice

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to so that when they turn their backs on you, you get the chance to put the knife in.

I must have listened to this album during my entire 20s, every night when going to bed. Just fackign amazing.

Great album ….blue is the colour

And the answers fall easier from the barrel of a gun
Than it does from the lips of the beautiful and the dumb
The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun
With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun …

I shouted out - who killed the Kennedy's"
Sympathy for the devil - Rolling Stones

—————-


Pretty much any line from this song sounds great. I personally like

‘ killed the Tsar and his ministers, Anastasia screamed in vain’

Yeah just read through…

Gimme Shelter is my favourite Stones song and possibly my favourite ever song


Another line I like:

‘If a double decker bus crashes into us, to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die’

He drowned his stepson in the duckpond
Let the wifebeater out to make a pop song
He put razor blades in the ice cream
Shot a paedophile in a wet dream

In a similar vein to the cool hand Luke sample is Primal Scream - Loaded.

“Just what is it that you want to do?
We wanna be free
We wanna be free to do what we wanna do
And we wanna get loaded
And we wanna have a good time
That's what we're gonna do
(No way baby, let's go!)
We're gonna have a good time
We're gonna have a party”

Which is a scene from a film called the Wild Angels.

And in the naked light, I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

But I remembered a voice from the past
"Gambling only pays when you're winning"
Had to thank old Miss Mort for schooling a failure
Keep them mowing blades sharp -

I know what I like - Genesis lyrics Peter Gabriel
