Scribblings from the Mitchy Side

Gods, I am so bored. My choices right now are filing, more filing, or lugging archive boxes down to sort out. So I thought I'd do a lyrics meme instead :P Name the song, the musical it's from and bonus points if you identify the character singing the line!


1) Listen I hate to break up the mood/Get to the point, begin the beguine - voluta

2) New York City! Centre of the universe! - commoncomitatus

3) He's handsome, he's young!/ Alright, he's 62/ But he's a nice man, a good catch, true? True. - commoncomitatus

4) The folks atop the ladder/Are the ones the world adores/So boost me up my ladder, Kid/And I'll boost you up yours crevette

5) You can take/You can give/Let him be/Let him live - halcyon_shift

6) You must be mistaken, I'm sure that you are/There's more than one car with stickers on. - commoncomitatus

7) Why God, why this face/Why such beauty in this place/I liked my memories as they were/But now I'll leave remembering her, just her - voluta

8) They came out West and built a lot of fences/And built 'em right across our cattle ranges! (two characters here, I'll take either name :)) - voluta

9) Where a girl and a guy with a little petty cash between them/Can be sure when they deposit no-one's seen them/Oh what bliss to sign your checks as three-o-one-two-seven

10) A touch of paint, a magic nail/Can turn a kitchen chair into a Chippendale (this is a duet - I'll take either character name :)) - commoncomitatus
