Hey, let's play "spot the line" without googling!

I can't believe you exist / I crossed you right off my list = "Motorhead"
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man = "Ace of Spades"
I remember the first time I took her to a cheap motel = "Please don't touch" (not part of the original lyrics from the Johnny Kidd/Pirates' version)

Isn't "I can't believe..." from "No Class"?

Maybe so, like I say, just guessin'

It sort of fitted into the "All good clean fun, Have another stick of gum" scansion.

"I make love to mountain lions / Sleep on red-hot branding irons" = I'm So Bad Baby I Don't Care?

I wish I could vote for "I'll wake you up, but stay in bed/Don't get up, get down instead!", one of my favourite Lemmy couplets, so witty and dunderheaded and elegant simultaneously, just wonderful. But rhyming "Doctor Spock" and "Dr. Rock" is pretty wonderful too in its own right, so I'll go with that one.

went with the "orgasmatron" line, but this is my all-time favorite:

we know what we do, we know what we do
we do what we must and we admire our attitude

If you squeeze my lizard / I'll put my snake on you = Killed By Death, no?

"I just love the life I lead / Another beer is what I need" = the lyric every 'outlaw country' artist is too chickenshit to write

haha ok that did sound pretty dumb -- mostly what i meant is, it's ballsy to be satisfied! "yeah actually i'm pretty happy with my life, except that it is one beer short of awesome"

love the bit in the documentary when he adlibs after singing "that's the way i like it baby, i don't want to live forever" the line "but apparently i am!"

no class gets my vote.
