FAVORITE WEEZER LYRICS (AN EXPERIMENT)
Just pick one, limit it to a couple lines if you can.
Somewhat of an experiment, as much has been said about lyrical quality over the last few albums, so if I get enough replies I would be curious to see to which album/era/song most of your choices pertain. I wonder how the distribution will turn out.
I'll start.
As if I could live on words and dreams and a million screams. Oh, how I need a hand in mine to feel.

OK GO!

It has to either be that same line from across the sea or "You can't avoid her She's in the air In between molecules Of oxygen and carbon dioxide" from only in dreams.
Rivers is a lyrical genius though so almost all of his songs have a real good line or 2

ALRIGHT!SO FAR HERE ARE THE STATS, ROUGHLY.
OVERWHELMINGLY, most people's choices are coming from Pinkerton-era or pre-Pink music. A little bit of Blue sprinkled in so far, lots of Pinkerton.
Greatest Man That Ever Lived is getting lots of love, with a couple votes for Troublemaker as well, so looks like Red isn't doing badly either.
One vote for a lyric off of Hurley.

Whah??? I don't really get your +1 comment. And yes, I was serious. I have lots of favorite lyrics, but I'm a rule player so I chose one of them. I stand by it :)

lol. Wait, serious?
+1 this post for every Red album, Hurley, or Raditude quote.

It's hard to choose, but I'll go with:
When I'm stable long enough,
I start to look around for love
See a sweet in floral print
My mind begins the arrangements
