Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now

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 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!
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 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…
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 the stage, I wanna take my bow
'Cause Mama I’m a big girl now!
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
'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!
Someday 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…
Woah oh, oh oh oh!
Mama, I’m a big girl now…
Hey, hey!
Mama, I’m a big girl-
Such a big, big girl!
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!
