Mama, I'm A Big Girl Now Lyrics by Hairspray

Mama, I'm A Big Girl Now

Don't contradict me!
Don't disobey me!
Don't even think about going to that audition!
please!?
no!
mother!?
stop...
stop telling me what to do-o
don't...
don't treat me like a child of two-o
no...
I know that you want what's best
please...
but mother please....give it a rest!
[3x]
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 just what the older kids did
But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow
cause mama, I'm a big girl now! [Oh, Tracy!]
Once upon a time i played with childhood toys
But now i'd rather play around with teenage boys
So if I get a hicky please don't, have a cow!
cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
Ma, I gotta tell you that without a doubt
I got my best dancing lessons from yo-ou
You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout
Because you shout non-stop, and you're so twisted to-o
ooooo
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 arrividicci, toodle-loo, and ciao!
cause mama I'm a big girl now!
oooo
[3x]
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!
OOOOO!
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!
OOOOO
ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong
and now I just wanna give it a try
Mama, I'm been in a nest for far to long!
So please give a push and mama watch me fly!
Watch me fly!
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
OOO
Mama, I'm a big girl now
Hey, ya, ya, ya, yay
Mama...I'm a big girl...
oo, such a big big girl
I'm a big girl...now...oooo [2x]
[stop don't no please]
mama, I'm a big girl now!
