Does this song have the greatest first line in rock history, or is your opinion wrong? Because I’ll never write a line as good as “I’m a street-walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm,” and neither will you. Proust wrote 14 volumes of bullshit and didn’t have a line that good, but he was handicapped by writing in French and not having the Asheton brothers in his band.
Look out, honey, cuz I’m using technology.

Nice related radio piece done by an old pal of mine…
pretty good, but my favorite has been from Zappa’s Camarillo Brillo:
She stripped away
Her rancid poncho
An’ laid out naked by the door
We did it till we were un-concho
An’ it was useless any more
guess it’s not a line, maybe
a couplet?
Pure Poetry!
