I was the walrus!

"I was the walrus
And now, now I'm just John"

The above is one of my favorite John Lennon lyrics.
Also added:

"You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one"

What are your favs?

Paul: "it couldn't get much worse"

great line from Paul, completely impromptu.

"Living is easy with eyes closed"

"Mother Superior jumped the gun"

"Mother, you had me, but I never had you"

"One and one and one is three
Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see"

"When the rain comes, they run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead"

"And you're making me feel like I've never been born"

"Last night the wife said 'Oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothin' with you but your soul... think!"

"Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes"

"When I cannot sing my heart, I can only speak my mind, Julia"

"I'm a loser, and I'm not what I appear to be"

"I am he as you are he as your me and we are all together"

"Some kind of innocense is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears"

"Nothing to do to save his life, call his wife in"

"The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you, Dear Prudence"

"Well here's another clue for you all, the Walrus was Paul"

"He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed"

"The eagle picks my eye, the worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidaly just like Dylan's Mr. Jones"

"Play the game 'Existence' to the end of the beginning..."

"There is a place where I can go, when I feel low, when I feel blue
And it's my mind"

"If looks could kill it would have been us instead of him"

"Doesn't have a point of view, knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me"

"They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool"

Instant Karma's gonna get you, gonna knock you right on the head
You better get yourself together, pretty soon you're gonna be dead"

I'm sick and tired of hearing things from uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics
All I want is the truth"

"I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go 'round and 'round
I really love to watch them roll"

Actually Bandoman, it was the other way around. That's a McCartney song and John chimed in with that line. Friggin' brilliant on his part, by the way.

Wait a minute - if you got the karate photos I was supposed to send to the karate people, then who got the kiddie porn that you requested? Uh oh...

Anywhere they'll listen, my good chap, anywhere they'll listen.

Now, how about we get this thread back ON topic, huh?
