Yes. That's true. Quite true. But where's your line from a different song? :D

Mine is: "You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain..."

"You got a lot of nerve to say you are my friend"
"Positively Fourth Street" by Robert Zimmerman, Hibbing MN.

And now straight from a sophomore English class, perhaps the most pretentious folk-rock couplet ever written:

We speak of things that matter, with words that must be said.
Can analysis be worthwhile? Is the theater really dead?

Must be said?

Paul Simon, Dangling Conversation. In Joan Baez' cover version, she changed it to the even more clanging "Is the Church really dead?"

You think that's more pretentious than this Donovan howler:

"And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice
And let us sing
And dance and ring in the new...
Hail Atlantis!"

Or this one (quiz), though it's not folk-rock:

"A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of her disgrace
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental place...."
