h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Needs no explanation, really.

Any Coldplay lyric gets my vote - esp. Shiver and Don't Panic

or

"When I counted up my demons, I saw there was one for every day, with the good ones on my shoulder I drove the other ones away, so if you ever feel neglected or if you feel like all is lost, then i'll be counting up my demons, hoping everything's not lost"

This is not the best lyric ever written (and they probably nicked it anyway) but a favourite of mine is: -

"If love is blind, I guess I'll buy myself a cane."
from 'Locomotive' by Guns N Roses.

Like it, like it

"lIving life inside a bubble" it could be about me!

"You broke the rules, now I pull out all your pubic hair..."
Tenacious D

I think that says it all really.

Continuing that tasteful theme, how about: -

"I'm a fool whose tool is small, it's so miniscule it's no tool at all."
'Hang on to your IQ' by Placebo

Oh, well if we're going for bad taste:

"How many girls do you know who can play the harmonica with their pussy?" - Three Point One Four by Bloodhound Gang

B

"You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals so lets do it like they do it on the Discovery channel"

Bloodhound Gang,

"Hey everybody take a look at me, I've got street cred-a-bility, I may not have a job but I have a good time with the boys I meet down on the line!"
Wham

Pure genius.

"when you're sad and feeling blue,
With nothing beter to do,
Don't just sit there feeling stressed.
Take a trip on THE NATIONAL EXPRESS!"
'National Express', Divine Comedy

"love struck I've fallen for a lamppost"
madness

"That's all right, I warned myself,
Keep blood on the inside and nowhere else."
'Mind Over Money', Turin Brakes

"We Live In A Beautiful World"

Coldplay song whose name escapes me

"Nothing Compares 2U" - all of it!

Richard Thompson's "I can't wake up" has the line...

"You squeeze to hard you insist on kissing, when it seems like half your face is missing"

Lovely image

I see a little silhouetto of a man Scaramouche Scaramouche can you do the fandango?

Surreal or what?

"I make bangers, not anthems.
Leave that to the Artful Dodger."
'Has It Come To This', The Streets

Ps I love that Richard Thompson line too.

"You can waste your time on the other rides but this is the nearest to being alive, let me take my chances on the wall of death

Wall of death, that hero Ricahrd Thompson again

"Keep my kisses off your lipstick stop me swallowing your charms"
Ainslie Henderson

More Richard Thompson:

"She was a rare thing, fine as a beeswing, and I miss her more than ever words could say.

If I could just taste, all of her wildness now..

Well I wouldn't want it any other way.."

Plus the whole of "Smalltown Romance" etc.


He da man.

So I see
