    We had the guitar licks thread, so I thought I'd start a lyrics thread.

    For some reason (and I'm not even a huge stones fan), I think this is an absolutely fantastic line:

    From the Stones' - Satisfaction:

    When I'm watchin' my TV
    and that man comes on to tell me
    how white my shirts can be.
    Well he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
    the same cigarettes as me.

    I also love this lyric from the one hit wonder The Vapors - Turning Japanese:

    I've got your picture, I've got your picture
    I'd like a million of you over myself
    I asked the doctor to take your picture
    So I can look at you from inside as well

    Maybe I need therapy.
