Ma's in the chapel preaching fear of the lord while juniors committing a crime, so everything is fine!

Brilliant words, from a Brilliant song!

Steve for some reason now swaps the word chapel to kitchen?? Poetic Justice!

As I said on another thread the line from A Friend For Life - Will you come with me in the certain knowledge, the catch is there's no catch at all?

Speaking of favorite lyrics, anyone have a copy of the lyrics to Rock and Roll Parade. I can't dig them up anywhere!

'Best Lyric'depends on what mood i'm in; time of day;who im with and other stuff...bit like 'whats your favourite meal...'

The other problem is the man is so prolific and to select a few creates a potential injustice to those equally profound,beautiful,inspiring,funny,heartwrenching pearls you leave out...

So with that in mind heres a few which hit me at this time in this place right now;

Couch my disease in chintz-covered kisses
Glazed calico cloth my costume this is
[cos just speaking or thinking these words is a pleasure in itself and and as is often the case with me and Steve,the words mean different things at different times!]

Swimming to the grey horizon
Trying to escape the enemy
[Evocative/melancholy]

Radiate Simply, the candle is burning so low for me
[Imagery,mood.atmosphere.In fact the whole song is a masterpiece and easily the most underrated song in the history of music]

Genius x

VERY well said. Everytime I turn around I fall in love with a new one, or re-fall in love with a older one, and there's a song for every damn mood.

RIGHT??

I loved this comment, btw. I like how you write.
