You're a literary great
Who should've won a Pulitzer Prize
I would never cannibalize
Or impair
A single hair
Of your amazing opus

Still a lot of scribblers
Soon discover what they write for the screen
Isn't really right for the screen
So I intervene.

etc.

"The Buddy System", lyrics by David Zippel

Delihah: If you want me
to hold you dear
Stop talking bullsh*t
In my ear.
Sampson: Cuz love is all!

Some of The Producer's songs have pretty funny lyrics.
Like King of Broadway, Along Came Bialy, and Keep it Gay

My current favorite is:

"The Bush's from Tex
were nervous wrecks
because their son was dim --
but look what happened to him!"

From Dirty Rotton Scoundrels - it's hilarious.

Yeah, "Oklahoma?" from DRS is hilarious. Too bad Sara doesn't have too much to do after that.

SWEENEY TODD

Sweeney: I prefer General.

Lovett: With or without his privates?

La, but someone has to strike a pose
And bear the weight of well-tailored clothes!
And that is why the Lord created men!

THE FROGS

DIONYSIS: Have you ever been in love.

XANTHIAS: Once, but it didn't last. She was having an affair with a centaur. You know, half-man, half-horse. How do you compete with that?
