iainjcoleman had a post asking for people's favourite beginnings to songs. I usually like lyrics that describe something interesting that's going on.Here are some:
'This is Ground Control to Major Tom/ Take your protein pills and put your helmet on'
'The Indians send signals from the rocks above the pass/ the Cowboys take position in the bushes and the grass.'
'Eleanor Rigby/ Picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been'
'Is it worth it/ A new winter coat and shoes for the wife/ And a bicycle on the boy’s birthday?'
The other kind I like is abstract and impressionistic (like Born Slippy or Can't Stop). Anyone got any other suggestions?
