...Perpetual Music Lyrics Post...

OK...this will be a 'perpetual' feature here, of cool, clever, and/or poignant song lyrics from ANY genre (although Rock will be the dominant one here...). I'll keep adding to the list over time, but Y'ALL please feel free to add ones you like as well - I'll note your contribution when added to the list (please notice you CAN comment on the 'page' feature). You can have one line, two, or even more, but typically the briefer the better... hopefully the ones I start out with will give you the 'gist' of the exercise.
The only other rule, as alluded to in the 'Hi-Y'all' post, is - no profanity, please. or, at least please use proper '***' for the offending word... Thanks, y'all.

OK, here goes...
