Having a bit of craic in the local...I have proposed that the best ever opening line of a song is from The Toy Dolls 'Dig That Groove Baby'...

'Friday night is bath night'

Can anyone come close?

"Some people call me the Space Cowboy, some call me the Gangster of Love..."

"Picture yourself in a boat on a river, with tangerine trees and marmalade skies..."

But the winner is...
“I am an antichrist. I am an anarchist...”
