One line from a song

We're we limited to one?

"Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman, yeah, and you'll find love
And don't forget, son, there is someone up above"

Lynyrd Skynyrd

“Bitchin’ Camaro bitchin’ Camaro
I ran over my neighbor
Bitchin Camaro bitchin camaro
Now I’m in all the papers
My folks bought me a bitchin’ Camaro without insurance to match
So if I happen to run you down, please don’t leave a scratch”

-The Dead Milkmen
 
Some balls are held for charity and some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure, they're the balls that I like best
My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right
It's my belief that my big balls should be held every night

Several lines by Alan Parsons Project - "What Goes Up" on their album Turn of a Friendly Card :

What goes up must come down
What must rise must fall
And what goes on in your life is writing on the wall!

Pick what each one goes with. First line definitely an airplane...
 
Some fools fool themselves I guess , but they're not fooling me.

Since the thread is drifting from "one line from a song" to verses, nothing wrong with that, I would further drift towards any number of lines and verses from the great Stan Rogers such as this one from a song that has helped me many times stay afloat and right the ship:

"And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow
With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go
Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain
And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again
Rise again, rise again!
Though your heart, it be broken, or life about to end
No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend Then like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again!"

This documentary is a great homage to his poetry, music and life:

"Stuff that works, stuff that holds up
The kind of stuff you don't hang on the wall
Stuff that's real, stuff you feel
The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall"

I want to paint your arrogance and beauty
I want to paint the way you laugh at me
I want to paint the world in which I see you
Fixed for all eternity
