Musical Quote Guessing
Musical Quote Guessing Game!
Alrighty! This game is pretty self explanatory: One person posts a quote from a musical (soundtrack, not dialogue, please) and then another person guesses what musical it's from! Extra points if you can name the song Then they post the next guote.
Please wait for all the comments to be posted, make sure that the quotes you post are from kid-appropriate musicals, don't use the Internet for guessing, yada, yada, yada.
One thing to pay aattention to: Please don't post multiple quotes from the same musical. For example, if I posted a Hamilton quote, you wouldn't ever post another Hamilton quote in this thread.
Except for Hamilton references. Post as many references as you need to keep yourself satisfied. :)
First quote (a pretty easy one to get us started):
"Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it."

Better quote: "Steam machine. Steam machine." Or "Buy it easy, break it fix it"
From the same performance.

Yay! Musicals!
I don't know Gared's, so I'll post another quote so this thread will stay alive!
Okay, this one might be a little hard. . . it's a less well known musical, although some of you might know it. I'll leave the names in just in case.
"So Skyler's next in line, but somehow Skyler flunks!
So Kyler should be captain, but Kyler's blowing chunks!
Is this all coincidence, just unrelated incidents
That happen to occur, miraculously making way for her!
Something isn't right her, I don't know what it is,
None of this should be happening, but it is, oh, but it is"

I have a new one!
"There's been one solution
Since the world began
Don't just sit and take it
Stick it to the man!!!"

Okay, I know there's a song called "Stick It To the Man" in School of Rock, so I think it's that. I'm going to add another, if that's okay.
"I've got no use for moonlight
Or sappy poetry
Love at first sight's for suckers-
At least it used to be."

OOOH I know this!
I Never Planned on You/Don't Come A-knocking, from NEWSIES!
"If you offer me cream, then I
sniff and sneer
'cause I only like
what I find
for myself"
Hope this isn't too hard!

I don't know yours Applejaguar, but I'm going to post an easy one to keep this on the first page.
"But he doesn't know the territory!" And if that isn't easy enough, here's another one from the same musical:
"If I fell, and I busted my watcha-ma-call-it, I'd lie on your floor unnoticed, 'till by body had turned to caaaaaaa-rion."

My quote was from Cats. That one is from The Music Man. Is it called Madam Librarian?
Here's another easy one:
Anything can happen, it's a marvel
You could be a butterfly, or just stay larval.
(September 7, 2016 - 12:02 pm)
Yep! Madame librarararararar-ion! Of course I posted a Music Man quote :) I just got back from a rehearsal for it!
I'm not sure what your quote is from...maybe Matilda? Is that even a musical?

Ooh! Ooh! I know it! Mary Poppins! Anything Can Happen!
Hmm, what now? Oh, I've got one. I like this song, though I don't know much about the musical it's attached to.
"She passes time by singing, like someone else I know.
As years go by she sits and waits-
As years go by? Uh-oh."
Okay, Fflewddur just said puku, and autocorrect wanted to correct it to Pukwudgie. I've been reading too much Pottermore.
