"Yeah"
Or Untitled AKA "Track 13" even though it is "Track 14"
All of them have just magical and thought provoking lyrics that mesmerise you with their amazing poetry.
Save Me - great emotional song about breaking up
Good Company - thoughtful lyrics, quite deep for such a "simple" song
I Want To Break Free - and
Spread Your Wings - two great songs from John about wanting to break free from the drudgery of every day life
Drowse - interesting wordplay and evocative mood by Roger
Days Of Our Lives - emotional song about growing older
Bohemian Rhapsody - Freddie masterpiece about wanting to be yourself, even though that may be radically different than other people's perception and how to deal with that.
I've always had a soft spot for '39, both musically and lyrically.
Besides that I really like Was It All Worth It, and as many have said, White Queen. Very beautiful poetry. Oh and Put Out The Fire, priceless.

Definitely "White Queen". Unlike most Queen songs, it has a subtle meaning, that's hidden deep within the lyrics. You really have to look for it. The structure and words are arranged with much skill and it fits perfectly with the song. Brian May is a lyrical genius.
I also like Brian's "Save Me", even if the meaning is far more blunt. It just fits the music so well, and the solo is almost a continuation of the words that cannot be expressed through language.

Just wanted to say that I have enjoyed this thread. It has become a reminder of how many great messages the members of Queen were able to put to music.
And the music was nothing short of superb.

... difficult question, too many to choose from, but I always LOVED "told my girl I had to forget her / gotta buy me a new carburettor" - it does take guts!
