They'd revoke my gay-card if didn't rock at the musical quotes game.
OK here's some from my all time favorite musical:
Mama Doesn't even have an inkling That I'm working in a Nightclub In a pair of Lacy pants. So please, sir. If you run into my Mama, Don't reveal my indiscretion, Give a working girl a chance.

That's Sally Bowles in Cabaret (the stage version; I don't think that song was used in the movie). The title of the song is "Don't Tell Mama."

quote:Originally posted by Bevis: That's the one. I was kind of expecting/hoping for sychronicity that Suddenly Seymour would post the answer becasue I posted the lyrics and then suddenly realised that the very title of the song was actually used here as an id with Audrey II as the avatar. Heh.
That would have been a nice bit of synergy, but I don't hang around Spaceopoly much and just now noticed this thread 'cause KP's latest response showed from the homepage.
But I'm here now, so bring it on!

OK, this one took some research. It's Dotty and Caroline in A.R. Rahman's "Bombay Dreams."
Sure as a wave needs to be near the shore your are the one I was intended for. Deep in your eyes I saw the gods' design. Now my life is forever yours, and you are mine.

Whoops, you're quite right. I scrolled too fast through the New York Times article. It's from "Caroline, or Change" by Tony Kushner and Jeanine Tesori. Sorry I jumped the gun there. Either way, I should have waited for confirmation before moving ahead with the next quote.
