I'll take "Southampton Dock". The lyrics to that absolutely astound me.

Re: What is your favorite Pink Floyd lyric?

If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million tear stained eyes
Don't be surprised, when a crack in the ice
Appears under your feet
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out behind you
As you claw the thin ice,

i enjoy the simplistic melody of it

through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes

...just so beautifully expressed.

"Shorter of breath and one day closer to death"

It basically sums up all of human existence!

Re: What is your favorite Pink Floyd lyric?

All of Floyd's lyrics are incredibly powerful AAAHH! Impossible to choose but what moves me the most is:

"finally I understand
the feelings of the few
ashes and diamonds
foe and friend
we were all equal in the end." Two Suns in the Sunset

ticking away the moments that make up a dull day, you fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way..kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown, waiting for someone or something to show you the way!!

Thumbs up In The Flesh

Get 'em up against the wall
That one looks Jewish
And that one's a coon
Who let all this riff raff into the room
There's one smoking a joint and
Another with spots
If I had my way I'd have all of you shot

or

We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain
Wondering which of the buggers to blame
and watching for pigs on the wing

"And then, one day, you find
Ten years have got behind you,
No one told you when to run,
You missed the starting gun."

Just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it...

I always liked the next part better:
"And no one sings me lulabies
And no one makes me close my eyes..."

When I hear that (especially with that chord change from the G# to the C#) it just makes me feel, so.... free.

"He's chained forever to a world that departed,
It's not enough, it's not enough..."

That's the only lyric I like in that song.... and the opening chords kick ass.
