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.

see this video at 3:07. Different song, but I reference those exact lyrics. I love those lyrics
jKlein said:Well my new one is "When I met you I was all alone.. cold and hungry crying on the phone" but that's for a different reason haha
I love:
"Holy moly baby, wouldn't you know it... just as I was busting loose... I gotta go turn in my rockstar card, get fat and grow old with you" from Falling for you-- but this was close because I love so many!!!

"You remain, turned away
Turning further every day"I love this pair of lines because it so succinctly sums up the experience of losing someone you don't want to lose.
I used to sit alone in the dark and drink beer to this the first time a woman (not a girl) broke my heart and I thought I was going to die, but was afraid I might not.
This whole thing, and more, is summed up by Rivers for me in two terse lines. Love it.

You can't avoid her
She's in the air...in the air
In between molecules
Of oxygen and carbon dioxide

"I'm such a mystery, as anyone can see, there isn't anybody else exactly quite like me. And when it's party time, like 1999, I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy"

"Somebody's cold one is givin' me chills"
Awesome lyrics, I don't even need to explain why, that line is just incredible.

I guess you're as real as me
maybe I can live with that
Maybe I need fantasy
A life of chasing butterfly
