It's What They Said

[Chorus]
We all know films, with iconic lines,
Heard ‘em and said ‘em, a million times,
Check out these verses, and you’ll see.
I’ll be back! Are you talkin' to me?
[Verse 1]
ET phone home! Fish are friends - not food!
Scotty, beam us up! Yo! Party on Dudes!
Inconceivable! As you wish!
Wax on, wax off! Snap out of it!
I did my job, I’d do it again!
Say hello, to my little friend!
I Am Iron Man!
Good morning, Vietnam!
Alrighty then! Bond, James Bond!
To infinity, and beyond.
Run Forrest run! Life moves pretty fast.
One ping only… You Shall Not Pass!
[Chorus]
We all know films, with iconic lines,
Heard ‘em and said ‘em, a million times,
Check out these verses, and you’ll see.
I’ll be back! Are you talkin' to me?
[Verse 2]
Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.
You make me want to be a better man.
Look at him in his wee li’l boots.
You Can’t Handle the truth!
Life is like a box of chocolates.
Round up the usual suspects.
A boy’s best friend is his mother
Thank you sir. May I have another?
OK campers, rise and shine!
Heeeere’s Johnny! It’s showtime!
One ring to rule them all.
Great Scott. You’re killin’ me, Smalls!
[Chorus]
We all know films, with iconic lines,
Heard ‘em and said ‘em, a million times,
Check out these verses, and you’ll see.
I’ll be back! Are you talkin' to me?
[Verse 3]
I’ll get you my pretty and your little dog too!
I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse.
Stupid is, as stupid does.
The stuff that dreams are made of!
We are the knights that say ni.
Leave the gun, take the cannoli.
Cinderella story, outta’ nowhere…
88 miles an hour!!
I coulda’ been a contender.
Nobody puts Baby in a corner.
Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.
Shut up. You had me at ‘hello’.
[Chorus]
We all know films, with iconic lines,
Heard ‘em and said ‘em, a million times,
Check out these verses, and you’ll see.
I’ll be back! Are you talkin' to me?
[Verse 4]
Play it Sam! Play “As Time Goes By”
Lions, and tigers, and bears, oh my!
1.21 gigawatts.
X never, ever, marks the spot.
Phil? Phil Connors? FOOD FIGHT!!
Good morning, good afternoon, goodnight.
Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal.
Have fun storming the castle!
Not all those who wander are lost.
What are you grinning at, you ghost?
I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
Surely, you can’t be serious.
“We all know films with iconic lines”
[Verse 5]
If you build it, he will come.
Houston, we have a problem.
It's in the hole! It's in the hole!
There's no crying in baseball!!!
Hasta la vista, baby.
Make your lives extraordinary.
Ogres are like onions.
O Captain, my Captain!
Food Fight!!! My Precious.
We'll always have Paris.
I’m melting! Melting!!!
I’ll have what she’s having.
“Word!”
“Word!”
