Obviously there are many good ones. For me the one that stands out above all others is short and sweet.....

"I'd like to find your inner child and kick it's little @$$"
---Frey, Henley (The Eagles)
---from 'Get Over It' off of 'H311 Freezes Over'
 
"Die Welt gehört mir und ich schenk' sie Dir"
-Blümchen, "Die Welt Gehört Mir"

Translated, it means "The world belongs to me and I give it to you." I dunno why i like it so much, it just strikes me as meaningful.
 
i have so many, and it changes all the time. one of them is in my signature. that one is from the song "Pimps and Hookers" by NOFX.

some others...

"Sepparation of Chruch and Skate" - NOFX

I want conflict! I want dissent!
I want the scene to represent...
Our hatred of authority,
our fight against complacency
stop singing songs about girls and love!
You killed the owl! You freed the dove!
confrontation and politics...
Replaced with harmonies and shticks
When did punk rock become so tame?
These f***ing bands all sound the same
We want our fights we want our thugs!
We want our burns we want our drugs!
where is the violent apathy?!
These f***ing records are rated G!

"The Irrationality of Rationality" - NOFX

Dan, the company man, felt loyalty to the corp.
After 16 years of service, and a family to support
He actually started to believe
the weaponry and chemicals were for national defense.
'Cause Danny had a mortgage, and a boss to answer to.
The guilty don't feel guilty, they learn not to.

"Idiots are Taking Over" - NOFX

someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool
now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule
...
what are we left with?
a nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists
who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland
pass on traditions
how to get ahead religions
And prosperity via simpleton culture

"Lower" - NOFX

Be the best, climb the ladder
Do it better, higher, faster
I refuse to participate
If I go up it will be slow
Im bringing everyone I know
Stopping on the sixth or seventh rung

On a pedestal, isn't the view great
You better watch your step, cause it's nasty fall
When there's no one to catch you when you call.

"Stranger than Fishin'" - NOFX (This one is funny because Fat Mike sings everything in a flat key.)

Know how to a beat on a drum
Know how to sing outta key
Got some prescription drugs
I ain't no musician
Some things are stranger than fishin'

"Stranger than Fiction" - Bad Religion (the guys and NOFX are friends in real life and appear on each others albums and make fun of each other)

life is the crummiest book I ever read,
there isn't a hook, just a lot of cheap shots,
pictures to shock and characters an amateur would never think up.
 
Ah, this one is easy. My favorite lyric is from The Beatles:

"She's well aquainted with the touch of the velvet hand like a lizard on a window pane."
 
I have a quite a few. This one's almost faux pas to say it but
"..there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, theres still time to change the road your on."

Also..."boy,man,god,sh** " ( I will give a cookie to anyone who can name that song!) and "I want all the world to know, that your loves all I need" (thank you to the most prettiful AC member ever for turning me on to this one :) )
 
Nis leugh t-eachdraich, fosgail suil
Anns gach linn mu dhoigh an Airnm
Stampadh air na croitean seagail
'S beathannan og aig gillean Uibhist

Cha deid mise gu an righ
Cha deid mise an corr a shabaid
O lunnain mheallt, a Bhreatuinn fhoilleil
Cha seas mi ach 'son sith nan eilean

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

Runrig, Tir An Airm

Roan
 
Rush has some really good ones. The only one I can remember right now is "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice"
 
"Through these Eyes" - Social Distortion

Through these eyes, I've looked the devil in the face
And I've seen God's holy grace
Through these eyes
I've tried to walk the straighter line
I found myself again
But nearly lost my mind

"Footprints on my Ceiling" - Social Distortion

How do you talk without speaking?
How do you hear without listening?
How do you live without feeling?
How do you take without giving?
And keep it all inside?

"Winners and Losers" - Social Distortion

Are you happy now with all the choices you've made?
Are there times in life when you know you should've stayed?
Will you compromise and then realize the price is too much to pay?
Winners and losers, which one will you be today?

There's a a light and a dark side
standing at the crossroads, there we'll meet
there's profits and fools there
the lies and the truths, will be at our feet
I got a reason to turn my head and look the other way
it's heaven and hell here, which one will I live today?
 
I have quite a few but this is the first that jumps to mind.
I guess that it makes it my favorite.

Slipknot - Duality.

I push my fingers into my eyes...
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
But it's made of all the things I have to take...
Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside...
If the pain goes on...
Aaaaaaaah!


I also really like this one

Deep Purple - Sometimes I feel like screaming

Sometimes I feel like...
Screaming
close my eyes
It's times like this
my head goes down
and the only thing I know
is the name of this town
