      An old song but a good one, in Rocket Man by Elton John there is the line:

      “All the science I don’t understand, it’s just my job five days a week.”

      Kind of sums up my work life in one line.

      hi simultaneous, supercriticalsunil,

      Tricky one here, and Ben chose a great one 🙂 Honestly cant think of a one liner which I could pick out, but I cant help but smile at the lyrics of Modern Major General from the Pirates of Penzance, Its an oldie but a classic.

      All time favourite is from Tango by Lady Sovereign. Slightly modified to make it more polite:

      “You want to be Christina so you dye your hair black. But [girl] you look like the vicar of Dibley. On crack.”

      Failing that it would be the Beastie Boys, Putting Shame in Your Game:

      “I’m the king of Boggle there is none higher
      I get 11 points off the word quagmire”
