Best First Lines

[IdleRich]

In literature there are loads of famous first lines.... but less so with songs (I think) which is surprising to me.
I'm not a big fan of Happy Mondays but, to start this thread off, is there a better first line than "Son I'm thirty, I only went with your mother cos she's dirty"? Maybe there is, tell me about it.
