Best lyrics of 2009

While we're on a roll discussing the year's best this and best that, let's review some of the best one-liners to come out of various songs in 2009.

"Kiss me where your eyes don't meet me" - Franz Ferdinand, "No You Girls"
This is probably a reference to blowjobs, if we had to guess.


"So get your leather, leather, leather on" - Yeah Yeah Yeahs "Zero"
In a year filled with Lady Gaga "pushing the fashion envelope", it's nice that someone like Karen O. can sing a simple request to just put some leather on. Because really, what else besides leather would you wear when you’re shoving the neck of a beer bottle down your throat?


"I'm in love with a robot" - Royksopp featuring Robyn "The Girl And the Robot"
Perfectly describes where the iPhone generation is headed.


“Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy” – Shakira “She Wolf”
Your move, Lon Chaney Jr.


I’m starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office” – Shakira “She Wolf”
All right, who molested the espresso maker this time?


“Who would you rather be- the Beatles or the Rolling Stones?” – Metric “Gimme Sympathy”
A question that everyone needs to ask themselves at some point.


“Before you, my whole life was acapella”- Kelis “Acapella”
Well if that isn't the best pick-up line I've heard yet...


"It’s twenty seconds till the last call, you’re going hey hey hey hey hey hey" - Phoenix, "1901"
Better hurry up and get that last martini in!
