"Well hardly ever"

Dean Friedman, seriously brilliant under-rated songwriter!

Not an opening line, but I remember this from way back and it still makes me smile:

She wore a peasant blouse with nothing underneath
I said "Hi", she said, "Yeah, I guess I am"

It's poetry 

Had a family quiz where it was guess the song + singer from lyrics.

Watching my parents try to say; "See your girl in the park, that girl is a uckers, When the ting went quack-quack-quack" then trying to work out what it means and who could have sung it was gold.

Some great opening lines from the world of hip hop

 

"I work the pen to make the ink transform,

Any particular surface the pen lands on"

 

"Turning quick scribbles into sick riddles"

 

"Looking out the window like Malcolm

Just when I thought this culture was open they go and doubt him

**** so many towns, spit, I skip jewellery

Molotov cocktails on me like accessories"

 

"I ain't like y'all

I'm into weird ****

I'm in the back getting weird with my weird friends"

 

"Now let me get some action from the back section

We need body rockin' not perfection

Let your back bone flip but don't slip a disk

And let your spine unwind just take a risk"

From The Deli Song:-

Four in the morning. (what'll you have?) well, I'm in the mood for a corned beef on rye.
With a tomato and some coleslaw on the side.

I love Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen etc, but Dean Friedman took poetic song writing to a higher level!

Loved the way he had a tendency to write songs of conversation between people (and even rocking chairs!).  Also got into a bit of bother when he wanted to distribute cannabis seeds with his CD, didn't realise this until looking at his Wiki page.
