(stolen from wingedcorset a while ago, but just now gotten around to.)

On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first thirty songs on the list (no matter how cheesy or embarrassing), and write down your favorite line of the song. Try to avoid putting the song title in the line. Then have your friends comment and see if they know the songs.

1.	Is this nicht a piece of bread?
2.	If I swallow anything evil, put your finger down my throat
3.	You know the monkey and the baboon playing in the grass / monkey stuck his finger in the Good Gulf Gas
4.	You can taste the bright lights / but you won’'t get them for free
5.	Times are gone for honest men / and sometimes far too long for snakes
6.	You got rats on the west side, bedbugs uptown
7.	Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down. / Really ain't no use me hanging around.
8.	There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
9.	Now a sailor's life is a life for him / but it never was for me
10.	I've been stretching my mouth / to let those big words come right out
11.	When old Canute was buying fruit one day, so runs the tale. / A young convicted felon brought him a juicy melon.
12.	Wide awake you face the day / your dream is over... or has it just begun?
13.	First thing I remember was askin' papa why? / For there were many things I didn't know
14.	And now this boy's addicted 'cause your kiss is the drug
15.	I said "I know, everybody funny / now you funny too."
16.	Quoi que j'aprenne, je ne sais pas / pourquoi je saigne
17.	He said "Son, son, you've gone too far / 'cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do."
18.	Some people seem so obsessed with the morning / get up early just to watch the sun rise
19.	She had a dream about the king of Sweden / he gave her things she was needin'
20.	Hush little baby, don't say a word / and never mind that noise you heard
21.	Get ready for the big time / tap dancing on a land mine
22.	If Jesus saves – well, He’d better save Himself / from the gory glory seekers who use His name in death
23.	It's nice when you're kinda cozy, but / not when you're tangled nose to nosey
24.	Destruction leads to a very rough road / but it also breeds creation
25.	Gum chewing's fine when it's once in a while / it stops you from smoking and brightens your smile
26.	My mind is set on overdrive / the clock is laughing in my face
27.	I went to church incognito / when everybody rose
28.	The captain is a one-armed dwarf / he's throwing dice along the wharf
29.	To break the glass and twist the knife into yourself / you've got to be a fool to understand
30.	Observe that his waistline is not getting thinner / eating polar bear pottage or filet of shark

All correct. You're the first one to positively ID 22 and 28. (I wondered if there were any other Tom Waits fans out there...)
