As the questions says.

I'll raise you another Warren Zevon song, 'Sweet Home Alabama/Play It All Night Long':

He ain't been right since Vietnam

One of the best and funniest lyrics you'll find anywhere (and a great song).

The title of this fred says 'Best opening lines to a song' There are no brackets with 'even though grammatically incorrect' inserted between said brackets

Further, I give you 6th June 1944. They made a film entitled The Longest Day not, The Longest Date.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

God, what a mess
On the ladder of success
Where you take one step
And miss the whole first rung

The Replacements -- "Bastards of Young"

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

Imagine there's no heaven.
It's easy if you try
