Ash, why didn't you tell me about this thread?!
This happens to me all.the.time. They get so stuck in my head that I start singing them. Which can be bad. Case in point: "I'm not their fool, I'm not their n*****" from Ragtime.
Another Ragtime one- "She had life in her, lord she had my baby."
Rent "Nothing, your smile reminded me of-" (sang as Manley Pope- the way he says "nothing" has this bizarre accent to it)
It rotates between lots of songs, but I always keeping coming back to the same few lines.
Wanting life but never knowing how

Anything goes"

I have this line Mary Testa delivers near the end of Xanadu stuck in my head:
"They're only up to the first barricade scene across the street."
I don't know why.

I will not be the girl stuck at home in the burbs, with the baby the dog and the garden of herbs. I will not be the girl in the sensible shoes pushing burgers and beernuts and missing the clues, i will not be girl who gets asked how it feels to be trotting along at the genious's heels. I will not be the girl who requires a man to get by, and I.....
Not necessarily a line...but I love when Sherie gets to this part in "If I Didn't Believe" - The Last 5 Years.

The day after I saw Jersey Boys, I had "Oh me, oh me, oh my-o/Did some time in ol' Ohio" stuck in my head.
It was strange.
