Like the title says, what are your favorite lyrics?

I just heard one of my favorite verses today:

“In a seedy karaoke bar by the banks of the mighty Bosporus Is a Japanese man in a business suit singing “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.” And the muscular cyborg German dudes dance with sexy French Canadians While the overweight Americans wear their patriotic jumpsuits”

Pretty.much anything by Mars Volta, Tool, Pink Floyd, and Muse. Have yet to find something by these bands that wasn’t lyrically full of awesome shit.

Those are the screams of existential anguish!

They’re very deep.
