Greatest Opening Line in a Song?

Prince has some fantastic opening lines...What is your favorite opening line to a song?

My three favorites:

Dig if you the picture of u and I engaged in a kiss.

I guess I shoulda known by the way u parked your car sideways
that it wouldn't last.

It's been 7 hours and 13 days since u took your love away.

I just can't believe all the things people say
Am I black or white?
Am I straight or gay?
Do I believe in God?
Do I believe in me?
Controversy

I can't understand human curiosity
Was it good for you?
Was I what you wanted me to be?
Do you get high?
Does your daddy cry?
Controversy
