[edna, velma & prudy]
stop!
[penny]
stop telling me what to do
[edna, velma & prudy]
don’t!
[amber]
don’t treat me like a child of two
[edna, velma & prudy]
no!
[tracy]
i know that you want what’s best-
[edna, velma & prudy]
please!
[tracy]
but mother, please…
[tracy, amber & penny]
give it a rest!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please! mama, i’m a big girl now!
[tracy]
once upon a time when i was just a kid
you never let me do just what the older kids did
so lose that laundry list of what you won’t allow…
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama, i’m a big girl now!
[amber]
once upon a time i used to play with toys
but now i’d rather play around with teenage boys
so if i get a hickey, please don’t have a cow!
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama, i’m a big girl now!
[penny]
ma, i gotta tell you that without a doubt i got my best dancing lessons from you
you’re the one who taught me how to twist and shout because you shout non-stop and you’re so twisted too!
woah oh oh oh oh…
[tracy]
once i used to fidget ’cause i just sat home
[amber]
but now i’m just like gidget and i gotta get to rome!
[penny]
so say “arrivederci!”
[tracy]
“toodle-loo!”
[amber]
and “ciao!”
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama, i’m a big girl now!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please!
[edna, velma & prudy]
stop! don’t! no!
[tracy, amber & penny]
please! mama, i’m a big girl now!
[ensemble]
hey mama, say mama-
[tracy]
once upon a time i was a shy young thing
could barely walk and talk so much as dance and sing
but let me hit that stage, i wanna take my bow
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama i’m a big girl now!
[amber]
woah, once upon a time i used to dress up ken
but now that i’m a woman, i like bigger men
and i don’t need a barbie doll to show me how
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama, i’m a big girl now!
ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong
and now i just wanna give it a try
mama, i’ve been in the nest for far too long
so please give a push and mama watch me fly…
[amber]
watch me fly!
[penny]
someday i will meet a man you won’t condemn-
[amber]
and we will have some kids and you can torture them-
[tracy]
but let me be a star before i take that vow
[tracy, amber & penny]
’cause mama, i’m a big girl now…
[penny]
woah oh, oh oh oh!
[tracy, amber & penny]
mama, i’m a big girl now…
[amber]
hey, hey, hey!
[tracy, amber & penny]
mama, i’m a big girl-
[amber]
such a big, big girl!
[tracy, amber & penny]
i’m a big girl now!
[ensemble]
stop! don’t! no.. please!
stop! don’t! no.. please!
stop! don’t! no.. please!
mama, i’m a big girl now!
