Best music opening line of all time

All the girls all get prettier at closing time
Oh, they all begin to look like movie stars
All the girls all get prettier at closing time
When the change starts taking place it puts a glow on every face
Of the fallen angels of the back street bars



 
When you're ugly like John you just naturally just got to be good
You've got to walk just right and keep you package wrapped tight and don't break no rules
You got to give it away you'll never sell it have the right Venus say wow when you tell it
When you're ugly like John you just naturally got to be cool


 
Gotta love a bit of rodder and maggie may (y)


This one is a song without any chorus's and the title is in the final line of the song.

I never thought it would happen
With me and the girl from Clapham
Out on the windy common
That night I ain't forgotten
When she dealt out the rations
With some or other passions
I said "you are a lady"
"Perhaps" she said. "I may be"
 
So you think you've got some county line cred
'Cause you rode a dirt road or two
You got a mossy oak hat on top of your head
And a southern pride tattoo
Yeah, you might've a drank a little grain alcohol
Or hauled a little hay
But if you think your boots got more dirt than mine
I got one thing to say

I got right into country dirty rock

 
Got a call from a buddy of mine
That I ain't seen in a long long time
He was comin' into town for the day
And he thought that he might stop by
He said, "I hate to interrupt your weekend
So just tell me if you got any plans"
I told him that I had a cooler of beer
And I could sure use an extra hand
Doin'

And the Lacs are one of my fave at the moment

 
'A green plastic watering can
For a fake Chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out'

Gotta love radiohead

Your everlasting summer
You can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something
That you think is gonna last
But you wouldn't know a diamond
If you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious
I can't understand
 
‘'Get off your arse!”

Not officially the opening line but still the greatest opening to any song, ever! Ever time I hear it I want to take on the world. The last great battle cry.

 
Honey it's getting close to midnight
And all the myths are still in town
True love and lipstick on your linen
Bite the pillow, make no sound
If there's some living to be done
Before your life becomes your tomb
You'd better know I'm the one
Unchain your back door, invite me around


Always loved this opening line
 
Depeche Mode - Stripped

Come with me
Into the trees
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

But you can have the Rammstein version

 
What a drag it is getting old
"Kids are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
