What are some of your favorite lyrics? - Lemmy.world

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”

“Everyday It slips away Life becomes a soft hum With no reason Your mind grows numb Stop making love Going through the motions Tell me how come No one gets what they really want And love only when it’s convenient? We act like we know more than we know We treat love like it’s something you own”

As tall as lions - “A soft hum”, hidden track that plays after “maybe I’m just tired”. I love a lot of their lyrics but this song has always stood out to me.
