Do you have a favourite line from a song, that you like to quote? eg. 'Always look on the bright side of life'
Mine is from The Jam. 'That's Entertainment'.

Ones that I don't, but maybe should:

'I walk the Earth my darling, this is my home.'

No need to laugh or cry, it's a wonderful, wonderful life.

Ever followed a car home, thinking it's your pal, and it isn't? And you haven't a clue where you are?

That's a good one, I can believe you actually say that, which is what the thread was supposed to be about.

'Some people see through the eyes of the old
Before they ever get a look at the young'

Billy Joel - An Innocent Man.


And from Spinal Tap's seminal 'Big Bottom':


Big bottom
Talk about bum cakes
My gal's got 'em.
Big bottom
Drive me out of my mind.
How can I leave this behind?

We watched the tragedy unfold
We did as we were told
We bought and sold
It was the greatest show on earth
But then it was over
We ohhed and aahed
We drove our racing cars
We ate our last few jars of caviar
And somewhere out there in the stars
A keen-eyed look-out
Spied a flickering light
Our last hurrah

Better than "I lost my licence, now I don't drive". From the same song.
