The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling,
way down in the valley tonight.
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye,
and a blade shining oh so bright.
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in sky,
and A killer's on the bloodshot streets.
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising,
Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter,
He was starting to foam in the heat.
"In 1984 I was hospitalized for approaching perfection"
-The Silver Jews
"Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine"
-Patti Smith
These are actually both the first lines on their respective albums. I think they both do a good job of grabbing you and making you want to stick around to hear what they're talking about.

Dude... I was going to mention that one!
"They tell us that
We lost our tails
Evolving up
From little snails
I say its all
Just wind in sails
Are we not men?
We are Devo!"
Jocko Homo - Devo
