Best Opening Line to a Song, by Bram on Aug 15, 2009 17:29:19 GMT 1, Heard this today and it got me thinking what's the best opening line to a song.
Punctured bicycle
On a hillside desolate
Will nature make a man of me yet ?

The screen door slams
mary's dress sways
like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays

Lips are falling
Hair is falling to the ground
Slowly, softly
Falling, falling
Down in silence to the ground
Eyes are falling
Lips are falling
Hair is falling to the ground
Slowly, softly
Falling, falling
Down in silence to the ground

I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's
Going to get himself a big dish of beef chow mein.
Werewolves of London- Warren Zevon.

Best Opening Line to a Song, by Curley on Aug 16, 2009 8:58:56 GMT 1, The distant echo -
Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
To take them home to
The ones that they love and who love them forever
The Jam, Down in a Tube Station

With your hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun
When the law break in How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement or waiting on death row
or
I don't give a damn I don't fucking care
I'm gonna kill me mum and then pull out me hair
I'm fed up with the dole and the human race
Gonna cut me liver out and shove it in your face.

HMMM..monkeyart
I'll trump your 1970's Dylan with this:
She was a girl from Birmingham
She just had an abortion
She was case of insanity
Her name was Pauline, she lived in a tree
(I am now away into the loft to find my record deck and a few old boxes of LPs)

Best Opening Line to a Song, by Coach on Aug 17, 2009 1:07:04 GMT 1, Who was that on the window ledge?
Did he jump or was he pushed?
He left a note which no one read
In desperate hand the note just said:
"Never turned my back on society
Society turned it's back on me
Never tried once to drop out
I just couldn't get in from the start"

Best Opening Line to a Song, by baznyc on Aug 17, 2009 18:43:18 GMT 1, Bending the rules a little I know but the opening lines of verse 2 of this ditty deserve a mention...
They came home on Saturday night
They killed a cat and they raped his wife
And in their eyes there was fear and hate
And when they spoke, they spoke with knives
Pure poetry.
