♫ Perfect, my dears, is me! ♫
Use Georgette’s motto when frenemies get you down or when you’re looking in the mirror getting ready in the morning.
♫ Naaaaaants ingonyamaaaaa bagithi baba ♫
Use this epic moment from “Circle of Life” when you either run into someone you don’t want to talk to (to make a quick, if slightly awkward, getaway), or while bonding with the animals on your next safari.
♫ This is what dreams are made of! ♫
Use Lizzie McGuire’s breakout pop hit to express your excitement over just about everything. Your barista spelling your name correctly, finding a penny from the year you were born, and guessing the weight of your frozen yogurt correctly so that it’s free, are all acceptable scenarios.
♫ That’s ancient history; been there, done that. ♫
Use Meg’s attempt at self-denial every time someone else asks, “who’d you think you’re kidding?” Seriously. Every time.
♫ Seasons go and seasons come, steady as the beating drum. ♫
Use this incredibly catchy tune the next time you’re at a social gathering with strangers who you have nothing to talk about with but the weather, or while planting your window box garden.
♫ Listen, listen! She’s calling to you. ♫
Use this pivotal moment from “Feed the Birds” when you notice two people talking, but one has zoned out and isn’t paying attention, or while feeding pigeons.
♫ Yes, people will beat you, and hurt you, and cheat you, everyone of ‘em’s bad, except you. ♫
Use “Sven’s” mantra when giving the best man speech at your closest friend’s wedding, or after the waiter delivers your order of french fries to the table.
♫ He’s such a tall, dark, strong, and handsome brute! ♫
Use this if you spot a tall, dark, strong, and handsome brute walking down the street, or whenever talking about George Clooney.
♫ We’re breaking free! ♫
Use when you manage to successfully skip out on gym class, or while riding a bicycle (and pretending you can fly).
♫ Things are working out according to my ultimate design. ♫
Use when your group of friends is getting take out, and you been pretending that you don’t care where everyone orders from, but really you’ve been subtly suggesting the place you want the most, and that’s the place they’ve chosen. (We know this one is fairly specific, but it’s particularly satisfying.)
♫ I give myself good advice, but I very seldom follow it. ♫
Use when you inevitably have to explain why you ate that hot dog and then got on California Screamin’ or if you’re trying to justifying buying that purse instead of paying your gas bill.
