Classic/best opening lines of a song...

Any music freaks out there? Have a few opening lines I think were great. Want to keep this to best opening lines only for this thread. Interested to see what gets posted.

If forced to pick one it would be:


"I saw a werewolf with a chinese menu in his hand...."

not many Zevons in the world today--greatly underrated as a writer and as a musician IMHO.

I know they aren't the actual lyrics, but enjoyed saying them when I was a kid...

You're still damn good

No one's gotten to you yet

Everytime they were sure they had you caught

You were quicker than they thought

You'd just turn your back and walk

You always said

The cards would never do you wrong

The trick you said

was never play the game too long

A gambler's share




the rest...

It's better to burn out, than to fade away

Nobody wants him, he just stares at the world. Planning his vengeance, that he will soon unfold
