Pointless song lyric thread

    Inspired by my recent entries in "pointless announcements" which were inspired by the fact that "Kiss" by Prince happened to be playing on the radio when I hopped into my car on the way home... I thought it was time to start a thread where we could slap down whatever was stuck in our head at the moment.

    Like "pointless announcements" and "pointless advice" not too much structure beyond that. Type up whatever is stuck in your brain. Reply to what someone else had to say by matching it with a witty, yet appropriate line from a different song. Or just reply that you "Hate the F*cking Eagles!" (the dude abides).

    This isn't a place for serious discussion of lyrics... there already is a thread for that. Short snippets will work best. And the more instantly recognizable the better. Your reference to your favorite obscure Prague-rock group that can best be described as a postmodern mash-up of "Dream Theatre", "Wilco", "Erykah Badu" and "Woody Guthrie" will certainly serve to increase your hipster cred, but it will also out you as a pretentious d-bag who missed the point.

    I'll go first:

    You may be right. I may be crazy. But it just might be a lunatic you're looking for.

    Here comes a candle to light you to bed
    Here comes a chopper to chop off your head.

    "You know he knows just exactly what the facts is"

    I do not like any of the Steve Miller Band songs that I've heard on the radio.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------

    Sorry about breaking up the lyrics quoting, but...

    My (now X) BIL from Scotland didn't understand why I was sick of The Eagles. I had to explain that you could not turn on a classic rock radio station, or easy listening stations (puke!) without hearing Eagles songs, and I'd already heard enough Eagles songs over the years to last me three long lifetimes.

    I've never understood why the writers--Kaempfert, Singleton, & Snyder--of Strangers In The Night had to include the ridiculousy bad and totally unnecessary scatting.

    Did you finally get a chance to dance along the latter-day
    And head back to the Milky Way?
