"Happy to keep his dinner warm"

Saw all of a sudden how things were run
Said times a wastin it's 1901.
Some men have everything and some have none.

"But that's just fine"

Once in every show
there comes a song like this
It's starts off soft and low
and ends up with a kiss

"The Song That Goes Like This," Spamalot

There's a hole in the world
Like a great black pit,
And its morals aren't worth
What a pig could spit,
And the vermin of the world inhabit it,
And it goes by the name of "London."

end of "No PLace Like London" from Sweeney Todd

I achieve my goals:
So unfazed am I
As my life unscrolls
Unamazed am I
Winning is a job
And I get no real enjoyment, but
je peux parler six langues

"I Speak Six Languages" from T25APCSB (that's so fun!)

In the wind, your flyin' mane
In my hand, your golden reign
Higher, higher, and never too high
and never enough
you know me cause I was your rider

hypertruffle - some kind of parody of Unworthy of Your Love from one Forbidden Broadway or another, I'd guess 'Unworthy of Your Words'

if that's right, just let nmartin's be the next guess.

by the way, I have noooo idea what it is, lol

nmartin, that was a TOUGHY. I spent the better part of the afternoon trying to figure out where I had heard it before. I had this vague image in my mind of two clownish performers in a revue kind of thing, and the sound was a little old, definitely from the analog-recording era. I recognized it, but nothing in my CD collection seemed to match up.

In the end, I took a trip to my father's place, where I leafed through his old records (which he holds onto even though he no longer has a working record player) and finally placed it:

You Can Always Catch Our Act at the Met, from Two on the Aisle.

Whew! OK, no more obscurities aimed just at me. I'm too obsessive!

I'm bringing back The Song Game! Guess the song/show correctly and post your own lyrics for someone else to guess!

"I put on her undies, her makeup and jewels,
slip into her nightgown and slap on the mules.
I guzzle her liquor, I eat all her food,
I cuddle her Tonys when I'm in the mood.
I stoll out of bed, I read all her mail,
I study her movements, every detail.
I wanna be ready for one day, perhaps,
I'll be waitin' in the wings when Ginger snaps!"

But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing"

Home, the Wiz

Isn't this the height of nonchalance,
Furnishing a bed in restaurants?
Well, a bit of dinner never hurt,
But guess who is gonna be dessert?

I saw gray skies and made them rain gold!
Now those skies aren't so bleak to behold!
They're still gray
But they pay

Mr. Cladwell from Urinetown.
I just opened in a production of Urinetown in the Bronx last night...

If I said I love him you might thing my words come cheap.
Let's just say I'm glad he's mine, awake, asleep.
It's been hot, also it's been swell. More than not, it's been more than words can tell. I halt I stammer, I sing a rondelay...

"What More Can I Say?" from FALSETTOS (more accurately, FALSETTOLAND)

"Mother said be grateful
You're not to make a fuss
Love will happen later
That's how it was for us
Mother said he's wealthy
Be glad of what you get
Love will happen later
Not yet"
