Lyrics
PRUDY:
Don't contradict me!
VELMA:
Don't disobey me!
EDNA:
Don't even think about going to that audition.
GIRLS:
Please?
MOMS:
No!
GIRLS:
Mother!
MOMS:
Stop!
PENNY:
Stop telling me what to do
MOMS:
Don't!
AMBER:
Don't treat me like a child of two
MOMS:
No!
TRACY:
I know that you want what's best
MOMS:
Please!
TRACY:
But, mother, please
GIRLS:
Give it a rest!
Chorus:
ALL:
Stop, don't, no. Please! (x3)
GIRLS:
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
But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
EDNA:
Oh, Tracy!
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!
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
PENNY:
Ma, I got to tell you that without a doubt,
I get 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!
(oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh!)
TRACY:
Once I used to fidget, 'cause I just sat home
AMBER:
But now I'm just like Gidget, and I got to get to Rome!
PENNY:
So say "arrivederci"!
TRACY:
"Tootle-loo!"
AMBER:
And "ciao"!
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
(Chorus)
GIRLS:
(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 want to take my bow
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
AMBER:
(oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh!)
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
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
GIRLS:
Ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong
And now I just want to give it a try
Mama, I've been in a nest for far too long
So please give a push and mama, watch me fly!
AMBER:
Watch me fly!
GIRLS:
Hey, mama, say mama
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 a take that vow
GIRLS:
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
PENNY:
Oh, oh, ohhhh!
GIRLS:
Mama, I'm a big girl now!
AMBER:
Hey, hey, hey, heyyy!
GIRLS:
Mama, I'm a big girl
AMBER:
Ooh, such a big, big girl
GIRLS:
I'm a big girl now!
(Chorus)
GIRLS:
Mama, I'm a big girl now!
