Your favourite Queen song lyric and why - only one please

There are loads of really terrific lyrics, especially from Innuendo, The Prophet's Song, My Fairy King, MOTHQ, but I have to say my favourite is 'I love you for your mind baby, give me your body' from Tear It Up.
I know the lyrics are written by Brian, but they are just so cheeky Freddie... if you know what I mean.

Sooooooo Freddie.  Healthy or... otherwise... still the same attitude.

"I have no heart, I'm cold inside
I have no real intent
Save me Save me Save me
I can't face this life alone"

Why? I don't know. It touches me.

That's one of my choices. Powerful lyrics and vocals there.

Coming Soon

"Somebody Nagging you, when you're out with the boys"

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, Oh yeah!"

I find this quite a powerful thought evoking statement. Always liked it.

From Under Pressure, People On the Streets

Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

Suggests that Freddie was aware of poor peope on the streets.

Save Me

I hang my head and advertise
A soul for sale or rent

Fantastic

Oh yeah! I love that one as well. Very intense.
And I love the way Freddie sings it. So dramatic and powerful!

Whole of Killer Queen, sheer bloody poetry,(me, not the times)

Since my divorce... the next line of Save Me really does something to me:
"I still believe the lie, I love you till I die"

Another one which is for me amazingly powerful:

"The moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath away...."

Such a great line, and sung with POWER, shivers... every time again...

I like this one from The Hero:

So you feel it's the end of the story
Find it all pretty satisfactory
Well I tell you my friend
This might seem like the end
But the continuation
Is yours for the making

(To me it means do not be self-satisfied.)

Only one? Damn, there go my many choices... but I'll probably have to choose "You call me sweet like I'm some kind of cheese" from 'Sweet Lady' - classic Queen humour but it's also laced with true bitchiness underneath, considering the heavy tone of the song (musically and lyrically). Funny and oddly philosophical beside the other lyrics.
