Continuing on from last week's theme, here are my top quotes from Ben Folds Five songs. I recently listened to all their albums again, after a couple of their video clips were on Rage. There's another one on this week too.
'And of sense of humour can there be any doubt, but natural selection just weeded it out,' Video from Ben Folds Five.
'How could she miss a man who drags a bag of trash down the road?' Julianne, from Ben Folds Five.
'The problem-with-you speech you gave me was fine, I liked the theories about my 'little stage'. And I swore I was listening but I started drifting around the part about me acting my age.' Best Imitation of Myself, from Ben Folds Five.
'Who's got the looks, who's got the brains, who's got everything? I got this pain in my heart, that's all,' Underground from Ben Folds Five.
'My my, the cruelest lies are told without a word. My my, the kindest truths are often spoken, never heard,' The Last Polka, from Ben Folds Five.
'I wish I hadn't bought you dinner right before you dumped me on your front porch,' Song for the Dumped, from Whatever and Ever Amen.
'I've got this great idea, why don't we pitch it to the Franklin fucking Mint? Fine pewter portraits of general apathy and major boredom singing 'whatever and ever amen',' Battle of Who Could Care Less, from Whatever and Ever Amen.
'You just smile like a bank teller blankly telling me have a nice life,' Selfless, Cold and Composed from Whatever and Ever Amen.
'Every couple nights or so you know you pop into my dreams, I just can't get rid of you like you got rid of me,' Fair, from Whatever and Ever Amen.
'In this time of introspection on the eve of my election, I say to my reflection, 'god please spare me more rejection',' Army, from The Unauthorised Biography of Reinhold Messner.
'You have made me smile again, in fact I might be sore from it. It's been awhile,' Don't Change Your Plans, from Unauthorised Biography.
'Please cook my steak again, je suis American,' Your Redneck Past, from Unauthorised Biography.
