she said, she said
 'you don't know shit,
 because you've never been there'

Wilco:
 
 She's a jar
 With a heavy lid
 My pop quiz kid
 A sleepy kisser
 A pretty war
 With feelings hid
 She begs me not to miss her

I met a gin soaked barroom queen in Memphis

My personal choice:
 
 "I ain't no joke/
 I used to let the mic smoke/
 Now I slam when I'm done/
 Make sure it's broke/
 When i'm gone no one gets on cuz I won't let/
 Nobody press up and mess up the seen I set/
 I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder damn/
 But think about it then you'll understand/
 I'm just an addict addicted to music/
 Maybe it's a habit, I gotta use it/
 Even if it's jazz or the quiet storm/
 I hook a beat up convert it into hip-hop form/
 Write a rhyme in graffitti in every show you see me in/
 Deep concentration, cuz I'm no comedian/
 Jokers are wild if you wanna be tamed/
 I treat you like a child then you're gonna be named . . . "
 
 But I can't really argue with yours either.    

[Mobius]

"The ashtray says, you were up all night"
 
 Wilco
 
 "Women think I'm tasty, but they always want to waste me"
 
 Stones - Tumbling Dice (following one the most perfectly constructed and delivered opening riffs in musical history)
 
 And another Prince worth listing:
 
 "Guess I should of known, by the way you parked your car sideways that it wouldn't last"

[Frank Gallagher]

Oh so many so here's a few off the top of my head......
 
 "The Mississip Delta was shining like a national guitar"
 
 "He was just a social drinker but social every night"
 
 "One of 'em's off her food, the other one's off his head, so both of them are off down the boozer"
 
 "I've come to wish you an unhappy birthday"
 
 "Time takes a cigarette"
 
 .....if I don't stop now I'll be at this all day (That's me, not an opening line!)
