I used the "say it 60000000 times or until you have it down" method, but it makes me very questionable whether or not I can remember it. Plus, I can't always remember it. Is there another way to get it down in my head? I am in a musical/play and I have my songs memorized perfectly, but I only have a few of my lines memorized. Help! I need it memorized by the end of the week.

People have different ways of processing thing into their memory.
1. Visually. This is my way of memorizing by seeing and reading it over and over it again so the script is scanned into my head.
2. Audio. Many people record the things they need to memorize and play it over and over again. Which is probably your case.
What you can do is get any kind of cheap recorder (even those on your cell or w/e). Record the things you need and play it over and over again. If you can record on a cassette, even better. Considering you can remember songs better I would highly suggest you doing this.
If you can't find a recorder, have someone take turns *saying* your lines to you and you repeat after them. Commit to a half an hour or more a day and you will have everything memorized soon :).
Edit:
If you need to memorize lets say plus 100 lines by the end of the week I would suggest in extending the practice time. You should have everything memorized a day prior to your presentation so that on the day you can rehearse/review over it.

I just put the lines on a flashcard and look at it often and try to remember 1 card at a time. Memorize in small parts not in whole chunks.

It really helps me memorize stuff if I look at what theyre saying and why theyre saying it. That way you understand what theyre saying and it makes more sense, so its easier to remember. Does that make sense? For example, if the line is "et tu, brute?" (an easy one to memorize, i know) you can just figure it out that "et tu, brute" means "you too, brutus?" in latin. That way its easier to remember because Caesar's asking his friend, Brutus, if he also is going to stab him. I dont know if that helps.

if its a song, listen to it like a million times it works for me.
if its something thats like a play or something...see if you can find a tape of it and listen to it or you could just read it a million times, i guess that that would work.
good luck on whatever it is!

Maybe have your mom or dad hold up signs backstage with your lines written on them in larger-than-life-sized font?
Just kidding dude. I have no idea how to memorize something so lengthy. Now if you need help memorizing country or city names, I can help! Complete sentences? Nope, sorry.
