I thought it had been irrefutably proved in every poll since time began that the definitive answer to this question is the werewolves of London:

I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand,
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain.

But I must admit a personal favourite of mine is:

Lovely Rita, meter maid, may I enquire discreetly,
When are you free to take some tea with me.

My girlfriend says that I need help
My boyfriend says I'd be better off dead.

Opening line to the Therapy? album "Troublegum". That album has a number of choice lyrics it has to be said.
