Arma virumque cano (Maybe more epic than lyric)

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” is also pretty good

If we’re talking about pop songs, I also like this one by the Silver Jews: In nineteen eighty four I was hospitalized for approaching perfection

Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew? 'Cause they're working for the clampdown They put up a poster saying we earn more than you! When we're working for the clampdown We will teach our twisted speech To the young believers We will train our blue-eyed men To be young believers The judge said five to ten-but I say double that again I'm not working for the clampdown No man born with a living soul Can be working for the clampdown Kick over the wall 'cause government's to fall How can you refuse it? Let fury have the hour, anger can be power D'you know that you can use it? The voices in your head are calling Stop wasting your time, there's nothing coming Only a fool would think someone could save you The men at the factory are old and cunning You don't owe nothing, so boy get runnin' It's the best years of your life they want to steal You grow up and you calm down You're working for the clampdown You start wearing the blue and brown You're working for the clampdown So you got someone to boss around It makes you feel big now You drift until you brutalize Make your first kill now In these days of evil Presidentes Working for the clampdown But lately one or two has fully paid their due For working for the clampdown Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! (working for the clampdown) Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! (working for the clampdown) Yeah I'm working in Harrisburg Working hard in Petersburg (working for the clampdown, working for the clampdown) Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! Beggin' to be melted down And I'll give away no secrets

summervillian the clash harmonies are critically underrated tbh i think it was mick jones’ love of motown tbh
Avatar
for sure! but i still didn't expect them to be as precise on subtle pitch while storming through a rager like clampdown

Aw. 🥲 that’s one band I wish I coulda seen. I was thinking of, “I’m all lost in the supermarket, I can no longer shop happily…”

Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog Where no one notices the contrast of white on white And in between the moon and you The angels get a better view Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right

I misread this post and pic as "what is the most epic opening lyric of all time?", and for that I think my entry is: "God money, I'll do anything for you"
Now that your picture's in the paper being rhythmically admired and you can Have anyone that you have ever desired All you gotta tell me now is WHY WHY WHY WHY ...
