Hard to choose... I won't suggest anything, but I want to know which Floyd song has the best lyrics ever in your opinion.

hmmm... that's a tough one.

I'd have to say Set the Controls
or Echoes.

But theyre all equally good.

definitly not the best ever but i like the last verse to Childhood's End

Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why?
Some are born; some men die
Beneath one infinite sky.
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end.

Shorter of breath and oe day closer to death

For Me, Shine On You Crazy Diamond is the BEST.

For Second should be Comfortably Numb or Wish You Were Here.

I'd have to say it's a toss up between "Time," "Wish You Were Here," and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond." Actually, when I first started listening to Floyd with DSOM I was somewhat unimpressed with the lyrics to that album, but they eventually grew on me. WYWH was probably the first album where I really took note of the lyrics and it forced me to re-evaluate Roger Waters as a serious lyric writer.
