It's from a movie musical, but nonetheless:

"How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Love You When You Know I've Been A Liar All My Life"
- from Royal Wedding, music by Burton Lane and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner

All from Urinetown:
Why Did I Listen to That Man?
It's a Privilege to Pee
Tell Her I Love Her

Okay, this isn't from a Broadway musical, but it's from a classic Fred Astaire musical, Royal Wedding... "How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Loved You When You Know I've Been a Liar All My Life?"

Yes, that's the song title. It's the longest song title in any musical from what I read, I don't know in musical film or musical in general. re: Awkardly Long Song Titles...? It's a FUNNY song!


"Wait, wait! I have a question! What is the point in having a door that has a horrible death behind it? Huh? What does that acheive?!" -The 10th Kingdom

I think the two most geniuniely awkward song titles are:

And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going
- First of all, cause the title's freaking long, second because it can't decide whether to use contractions or not.
and
I Want to Be Seen With You Tonight (Funny Girl)
- IT's long and the tonight is so weird. Why just not "I want to Be Seen with You"? that is what they repeat through most of the song.
