Life is real (don't particularly LOVE the song but the sentiment gets me everytime)
Nevermore
That line from Save Me that everyone loves - 'I hang my head and I advertise a soul for sale or rent'.
Mmmm - it's hard to separate the lyrics from the syntax and the melody - Don't try so hard.
And the show must go on - it makes my stomach flip and not in a good way.

[b]Don't try Suicide & Coming Soon from "The Game"
"When you do it, all you do is get on my tits"
"Somebody nagging you, when you are out with the boys"
Does those two lines refer to married life? lol.

Probably "Good Company". Other than that, there are moments, but Queen didn't have too many profound lyrics IMHO (and I think Freddie especially agreed with that)...Queen were generally more about the music than the lyrics I think....

Brian could write some pretty good lyrics when his muse was in full force.
I love the lyrics at the end of White Man:
"What is left of your dream?
Just the words on your stone
A man who learned how to teach
Then forgot how to learn"

I'm torn between these two gems:
"You take my body
I give you heat
You say you hungry
I give you meat
I suck your mind
You blow my head"
and
"You say
You call me up and feed me all the lines
You call me sweet like I'm some kind of cheese"
WTF does "you call me sweet like I'm some kind of cheese" even mean?!

HEAVEN FOR EVERYONE -
"Listen - what people do to other souls
They take their lives - destroy their goals
Their basic pride and dignity
Is stripped and torn and shown no pity
When this should be heaven for everyone"
IMO, on topic, the most wise Queen lyrics and very accountable for actions throughout the world these days in a global sense, as well as one to one.
Energy leading up to these lines from the instruments in the MIH version and the sheer power of Freddie's singing gives this song such a perfect ending, and really comes across as if they truly believed in what these lines were portraying.
[b]Roger[/b]'s best song BY FAR lyrically and musically.
[b]Brian's[/b] SAVE ME contains his best lyrics and again IMO,his best song also. Again, Freddie did a fantastic job in his performing of this song, giving it that extra special quality that only Freddie could bring to a song... especially live.
[b]Freddie[/b]'s best is SOMEBODY TO LOVE and you've got to love the genuine but simple feelings behind [b]John[/b]'s charming YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND

As english is not my first language I would be grateful if someone can explain to me, the meaning of the words in "Ogre Battle", as one of all time favorite queen song of mine!?

[b]Get Down Make Love[/b] - a very simple message of what life is all about, but perhaps the lyrics are still too complicated
[b]Don't Try So Hard[/b] vs. [b]Hang On In There [/b]- this just refers to anyone trying to achieve anything. Looked on the quantity of engagement set in the achievement from too less to too much. Which of them is more wise depends on the listeners state of motivation.
