I can name 50 rhymes I treasure simply by reciting the entirety of Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “Got Your Money.”

i couldn’t decide on just one line from “spaceball ricochet.” here’s the whole thing then:

I’m just a man
I understand the wind
And all the things
That make the children cry
With my Les Paul
I know I’m small
But I enjoy living
Anyway

Book after book
I get hooked
Everytime the writer
Talks me like a friend
What can I do
We just live in a zoo
All I do is play
The spaceball ricochet

Deep in my heart
There’s a house
That can hold
Almost all of you
I bought a car
It was old but kind
I gave it my mind
And it disappeared

I love a girl
She is a changeless angel
She’s a city it’s a pity
That I’m like me
I said how can I lay
When all I do is play
The spaceball ricochet

sigh…
