Title: The Sondheim Lyrics Game
Post by: Chris L on Jul 25, 2017, 02:28 PM
The emoji lyrics game is proving a bit more difficult than I anticipated, so in this game we can use the actual lyrics. Post a few words from a Sondheim song and then someone else can identify the song. That person posts the next lyric. An easy one to start with:

"Everybody dies."

This sounds like it should be from West Side Story, but I can't find it in any of the songs that seem likely.

This is probably "Happiness" from PASSION, but it can also be "Too Many Mornings" from FOLLIES

I knew it was Anyone Can Whistle but had shamefully forgotten the title - The Lame, the Halt and the Blind of course.
