Some good lines from some good songs...
"Yes I am a pirate
200 years too late
the canons don't thunder
there's nothing to plunder
I'm an over 40 victim of fate
arriving too late, arriving too late."
Jimmy Buffett -- "A Pirate Looks at 40"
200 years too late
the canons don't thunder
there's nothing to plunder
I'm an over 40 victim of fate
arriving too late, arriving too late."

Your butt is wide, well mine is too.
Just watch your mouth, or I'll sit on you.
The word is out, better treat me right,
'Cause I'm the king of cellulite.
Ham on, ham on, ham on whole wheat, all right.
"Fat" by Wierd Al

Along those lines:
...He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side,
And if you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide."
Oh, my Yoda
Yo Yo Yo Yo Yoda
"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed,
But remember if you kill him then you'll be unemployed."
Oh, my Yoda
Yo Yo Yo Yo Yoda
Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda, I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part till I'm old and gray
The long-term contract that I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda

Both by the Old 97's (who write some of the best lines I've ever heard)
"So, I went through the motions with her/
Her on top, and me on liquor/
It didn't do no good/
But I didn't think it would . . .
What's so great about the barrier reef?/
What's so fine about art?"
-"Barrier Reef"
"Why aren't you here?/
It's almost 4 a.m./
I finished off all of your beer/
Now I'm startin' on your gin/
Went through your diary/
Flipped through your phone book/
Called all your friends/
I just wanna know where you been/
I pulled back your sheets/
Now I'm lyin' in your bed/
Every drink's one more defeat/
And every footstep hurts my head/
Yes, I'm a loser/
But I like bein' miserable and livin' in sin/
I just wanna know where you been . . .
I hope you crash your mama's car/
I hope you're passed out in some bar/
I hope you catch some kinda flu/
Let's say I wish the worst for you"
-"Wish the Worst"

i'm perfection's countervail.
i'm torn into pieces
i'm made contrite
and in my darkest hour the brightest light
draws near to me a torch to end all torches
this is the light that sets me free
all shadows burn away now
but by his grace i am sustained
though all was lost
now all is found and more is gained
"A Torch to End All Torches" - Thrice

"I'm so tired
of my mood
and sleep comes
with a knife, fork and a spoon"
--"Am I Wrong" by Love Spit Love
Still trying to figure out that one. My theory's that sleep is consuming him. I dunno.

I always liked this one from the (English) Beat:
Mirror in the bathroom
please talk free
The door is locked
just you and me.
Can I take you to a restaurant
that's got glass tables
You can watch yourself
while you are eating.
Mirror in the bathroom
I just can't stop it,
Every Saturday you see me
window shopping.
Find no interest in the
racks and shelves
Just a thousand reflections
of my own sweet self, self, self...
Mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom...
Mirror in the bathroom
recompense
For all my crimes
of self defense.
Cures you whisper
make no sense
Drift gently into
mental illness.

Lit De Parade by Army Of Lovers incl oblig pic.
Count the ribbons in the sky
Sadness makes the ribbons fly
Evil grows a drive for tears
Tears are born in states of fear
Damage done I leave behind
After-life my state of mind
Dream's a dream a time gone by
I long to live the day I die
Count the ribbons in the sky
Sadness makes the ribbons fly
Evil grows a drive for tears
Tears are born in states of fear
Damage done I leave behind
After-life my state of mind
Dream's a dream a time gone by
I long to live the day I die

The most remarkable thing about coming home to you is the feeling of being in motion again
It's the most extrordinary thing in the world
I have two big hands and a heart pumping blood and a 1967 colt 45 with a busted safty catch
The world shines as I cross the Macon County line
Going to Georgia
The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway
is that it's you-
and you're standing in the doorway and you smile as you ease the gun from my hand and I'm frozen with joy right where I stand
The world throws it's light underneath your hair
forty miles from Atlanta this is nowhere
Going to Georgia
"Going to Georgia", The Mountain Goats

"Though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea" - Led Zeppelin, Ten Years gone
"...this feeling gets old, and so do your eyes, this is why, I hate you, cause, so far I've been down that's true, except for your love...I just smile, stand still, while you look right past me...ask why, just asking why, your cold, heart, lies..." - Deftones, Damone
"All my dogs raise your cup to this girl, toast
I don't wanna put shame to ya really,
I wanna put flames to ya sincerely,
Make your box spring jump like a low rider
best place I can be is inside ya..." - Q-tip from A Tribe Called Quest, Way you move
"Don't matta just don't bite it." - NWA She Swallowed It

"I've been really trying baby,
tryin to hold back this feelin, for soooo long
and if you feel, like I do honey
Whoo, come on, yeah come on, Hoo
Let's get it on, Let's get it on...Let's love baby" - Marvin Gaye Let's Get It On
"You're perfect, yes it's true,
But without me you're only you.
You're menstruated heart,
It ain't bleedin enough for two..." - Faith No More Midlife Crisis
"All the good, that you discover, in people that you hate,
Draw them close, and pencil thin, then they're easy to erase...I'd rather be insulted by you, than someone I respect" - Helmet, Birth Defect
"I'm so damn smooth that every woman wanna touch me, got so much sexuality that nuns wanna f**k me" - Ice-T Pimp Anthem
and there's so many damn more...
