Best Lyrics


James

Recommended Posts

What are the best song lyrics you've ever heard?

Off the top of my head:

"The Greatest Discovery", Elton John - great depiction by Bernie Taupin of the wonder of a kid first laying eyes on his newborn sibling.

"2112", Rush - a 20 minute concept piece that was an allegory of the "Individualism/Liberty vs. Collectivism/Totalitarianism" conflict that was an even larger world issue in the 70s when the lyrics were written.

"Hell Yeah", Neil Diamond - look'm up!

And you guys?
