Post a great line from a song, the song's name, and the recording artist

[OVERKILL]

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
And who would've thought... it figures

Ironic- Alanis Morrisette

The irony is that nothing in that song is ironic, lol.

 

[OVERKILL]

"I'm afraid, I'm so afraid
Being raped again, and again, and again
I know I will die alone
But loved

You live long enough to hear the sound of guns
long enough to find yourself screaming every night
long enough to see your friends betray you

For years I've been strapped unto this altar
Now I only have three minutes and counting
I just wish the tide would catch me first and give
me a death I always longed for."

Nightwish - The Poet and the Pendulum

 

[DejaVue]

The vase beside my bed
It's empty almost dead
It's for all the flowers I'm gonna give you he said
And now it's collecting dust instead

Someone - Sun Yanzi

 

[JHZR2]

Now there’s no more Oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet,
Axe,
And saw…

Neil Peart

1982 Don Henley song "Dirty Laundry":

Some versus from the song:

I make my livin' off the evenin' news
Just give me somethin', somethin' I can use
People love it when you loseLinks to an external site.
They love dirty laundryLinks to an external site.



Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pieLinks to an external site.
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry



We can do "The Innuendo", we can dance and singLinks to an external site.
When it's said and done, we haven't told you a thingLinks to an external site.
We all know that crap is kingLinks to an external site.
Give us dirty laundry!

Court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin

I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision.
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison.

My favorite line from that song is "Send lawyers guns and money, dad get me out of this!"

When I hear that, it then makes me think, “His hair was perfect!”
