Greatest Opening Lyric Of Any Song

[nw42]

Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
I know you ain't goin' anywhere.

 

[tonea2003]

strolling along minding my own business

here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders

don't start me talking, i could talk all night

why are you frightened, can't you see that its you

i was never a violent man, said the man in the bar with his head in his hands

 

[Out on blue 6]

strolling along minding my own business

here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders

don't start me talking, i could talk all night

why are you frightened, can't you see that its you

i was never a violent man, said the man in the bar with his head in his hands

Decades. Fantastic song

[jazzy]

They sentenced me to 20 years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

Very surprised this one hasn't been mentioned so far,an absolute killer line,Ian Curtis
