It was great to see how many of these musicals y'all recognized! :)

Musical Song Lyrics Answers:

Song #1

There's a sad sort of clanging

From the clock in the hall

And the bells in the steeple, too

And up in the nursery

An absurd little bird

Is popping out to say coo-coo

Answer: So Long, Farewell from The Sound of Music

~*~

Song #2

We never said our love was evergreen,

or as unchanging as the sea -

but if you can still remember,

stop and Think of Me

Answer: Think Of Me from The Phantom of the Opera

~*~

Song #3

I dreamed last night I got on the boat to Heaven

And by some chance I had brought my dice along

And there I stood and I hollered, "Someone fade me"

But the passengers, they knew right from wrong

Answer: Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat from Guys and Dolls

Note: I was almost seventeen before I even knew where this song came from because my mom used to have this song (and Bushel and a Peck) on an old record album we used to listen to all the time when I was a little girl.

Song #4

Are you the sweet invention

Of a lover's dream

Or are you really as

Beautiful as you seem

Answer: Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful? from Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella

~*~

Song #5

Who cares what they're wearing

On main street or Seville row

It's what you wear from ear to ear

And not from head to toe that matters

Answer: You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile from Annie

~*~

Song #6

Toot sweets sound like what they are

So do lollys in a lollypop jar

Gingerbread men have a gingerbread sound, we've found

Sugar plum cinnamon and lemon tart tell you what they are right from the 

start

And your name does the same for you

By coincidence, Truly Scrumptious

You're truly Truly Scrumptious

Scrumptious as a cherry peach parfait

Answer: Truly Scrumptious from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

~*~

Song #7

While shivering in my shoes

I strike a careless pose

And Whistle A Happy Tune

And no one ever knows

I'm afraid.

The result of this deception

Is very strange to tell

For when I fool the people

I fear I fool myself as well!

Answer: I Whistle A Happy Tune from The King and I

~*~

Song #8

Someone use to cradle them and kiss them when the cried

Did you see them lying side by side?

Who will wake them?

No one ever will

Answer: Turning, Turning from Les Miserables

~*~

Song #9

My dad said "Be an actor, my son

But be a comical one

They'll be standing in lines

For those old honky tonk monkeyshines"

Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite

And you can charm the critics and have nothin' to eat

Just slip on a banana peel

The world's at your feet

Answer: Make 'Em Laugh from Singin' In the Rain

~*~

Song #10

There's a bright golden haze in the meadow

There's a bright golden haze in the meadow

The corn is as high as an elephants side

And it looks like its climbin' clear up to the sky

Answer: Oh What A Beautiful Mornin' from Oklahoma!

~*~

Song #11

Still, Half a Sixpence

Is better than half a penny

Is better than half a farthing

Is better than none

It’s a token of

Our eternal love

When you’re far away

Touch it everyday

And, though, that Half a Sixpence

Can only mean half a romance

Remember that half a romance

Is better than none

Answer: Half A Sixpence from Half A Sixpence

Note: I've only seen this musical once and although the story is a bit odd I greatly enjoyed seeing Tommy Steele (The Happiest Millionaire, Finnian's Rainbow) in another musical!

Song #12

When the rhythm pounds

And the harmony sounds

And the melody rolls around

"Prest-o Change-o!"

We're Ten Feet Off the Ground

And when the rhythm pounds

And the harmony sounds

And the melody rolls around

Right from the down beat,

We can be found

Ten Feet Off the Ground

Answer: Ten Feet Off The Ground from The One And Only Genuine Family Band

Note: I've only seen this once and while it's excellent I always forget this song is in that film because I grew up hearing Michael Fienstein singing on his children's album Pure Imagination.
