Best opening line in a song

And when it hurts you know they love to tell you, how they warned you

Or

Well you didn’t wake up this morning cos you didn’t go to bed, just watching the whites of your eyes turn red
 
I don't think a thread like this can go without an entry from Karl Wallinger and Mike Scott

"We're setting sail to the place on the map from which no one has ever returned" from Ship OF Fools by World Party

And
"Seven o'clock in the morning and I'm riding the overnight train I've got ten tons of luggage but I left it behind when I came" from Somebody Might Wave Back by The Waterboys.
 
How many times can you jump out of the cupboard
Before someone gets suspicious or someone gets discovered
