SONG: Mama, I'm Big Girl Now ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman From the musical, Hairspray Stop! Stop telling me what to do Don't! Don't treat me like a child of two No! I know that you want what's best Please! But mother, please, give it a rest!!! Stop! Don't! No! Please! Stop! Don't! No! Please! Stop! Don't! No! Please! Mama. I'm a big girl now! Once upon a time when i was just a kid You never let me do iust what the older kids did But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow 'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now 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 'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now Ma, i gotta 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! Wo oh oh oh oh Once I used to fidget 'Cause I just sat home But now I'm just like Gidget And I gotta get to Rome! So say, arrivederci! Toodle loo! And ciao! 'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now Stop! Don't! No! Please! Stop! Don't! No! Please! Stop! Don't! No! Please! Mama, I'm a big girl now (hey mama, say mama) 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 'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now Wo oh oh oh oh 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 '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 Watch me fly (Hey, mama, say mama) One day I will meet a man you won't condemn And we will have some kids and you can torture them But let me be a star before i take that vow 'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now Oh Oh Oh Mama, i'm a big girl now Hey Hey Hey Hey hey! Mama, I'm a big girl! Ooh, such a big, big girl! I'm a big girl now! (Stop! Don't! No! Please!) Oh oh oh oh oh. (Stop! Don't! No! Please!) Oh oh oh oh Please! (Stop! Don't! No! please!) Mama, i'm a big girl now!!!
