I'm talking song lyrics that make you laugh, make you cry, or make you ask that age-old question: what the bleep? My all-time favorite lyric comes from my all-time favorite song, "Year of the Cat" by Al Stewart:
Song lyrics that hit you right in the bread basket

I'm talking song lyrics that make you laugh, make you cry, or make you ask that age-old question: what the bleep?
My all-time favorite lyric comes from my all-time favorite song, "Year of the Cat" by Al Stewart:
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain
Poetry of the highest order that.
The songs Alice Cooper performed in the '70s often had a humorous middle-class edge to them that I've always found pretty irresistible. This is from "Escape," the final track on his classic album Welcome to my Nightmare.
Don't get me wrong
Don't get me right
Now as far as what-the-bleep lyrics go, this is what T-Rex has to say about a lady who stole his heart in "Hot Love."
She ain't no witch
And I love the way she twitch
I'll toss in an extra category here for really bad lyrics that song writers came up with purely to have something, anything, that rhymed. I can think of no better (or worse) example of this than the following verse from Bobby Goldsboro's "Honey."
She wrecked the car and she was sad
And so afraid that I'd be mad
But what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me
And hugged my neck
