Big Doll House (Feb. 9)

Women:

I gotta get out, I gotta get out, I gotta get out

How'd I get in this slammer

This cooler, this Big Dollhouse

Matron:

Alright, ladies, welcome to the 'Big Dollhouse'

For those of youse new to the penal system, I'm letting you know now that I don't stand for no cussing, gambling, fighting or any other sort of unladylike behavior.

Think of me as a mother, one who eats her young

Velma:

Locked up with all these lowlife women

Edna:

And horizontal stripes ain't exactly slimmin'

Amber:

Is there anybody here who can dry clean my blouse?

Matron:

It's the maid's day off in the Big Dollhouse

Little Inez:

Lady justice, where have you gone?

Edna:

Oh, Wilbur, check, I think I left the iron on

Velma:

Did you see Corny laughing, I could murder that louse

All:

Honey, that'll get you life in the Big Dollhouse

Big house, 

Velma:

locked up here in the pen (Big house)

Penny:

no phone

Edna:

no food, 

Amber:

no men

Motormouth: 

And it's freedom's flame that Velma wants to douse

Tracy:

Penny, I can't take all this waiting

I've lost my man plus, my hair's deflating

Penny:

Well Tracy, I hate to grumble or grouse

But it's your fault that we're in this Big Dollhouse

Beatnik Chick:

Hey, cool it, ladies, no need to shout

And don't ya got an old man to bail you out?

Velma:

Ha, her daddy's a loser, a joker, a souse

Edna:

Well, it's just us girls in the Big Dollhouse (Big House)

Amber: 

I'm too young to fry (Big House)

Edna:

I'm bustin' out

Motormouth Maybelle:

Girl, so am I

All:

Lady justice, hear my plea

'Cause the Big Dollhouse,

The Big Dollhouse, the Big Dollhouse

Ain't big enough for me, for me, for me

Male Guard:

For me

Matron and All echo:

Hidey-hidey-hidey hi...

Hidey-hidey-hidey ho...

Welcome to the 60s (Feb. 5...added 'difficult part'):

Hey mama hey mama,

Look around

Everybody's groovin' to a brand new sound

Hey mama hey mama,

So let so, go, go of the past now

Say hello to the love in your heart

Yes, I know that the world's spinning fast now

You gotta get yourself a brand new start

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 havea steady 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 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

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!

Good Morning Baltimore

TRACY 

Oh, oh, oh 

Woke up today 

Feeling the way I always do 

Oh, oh, oh 

Hungry for something 

That I can't eat 

Then I hear that beat 

The rhythm of town 

Starts calling me down 

It's like a message from 

High above 

Oh, oh, oh 

Pulling me out 

To the smiles and the 

Streets that I love 

TRACY (& ENSEMBLE) 

Good morning Baltimore (all)

Every day's like an open door (ah)

Every night is a fantasy  (fantasy)

Every sound's like a symphony 

Good morning Baltimore (all)

And some day when I take to the floor (ooh-ooh)

The world's gonna wake up and see  (wah...see-ee)

Baltimore and me

I know every step 

I know every song 

I know there's a place where I belong  (where I belong)

I see all those party lights shining ahead  (ooh-oh)

So someone invite me 

Before I drop dead! (Before she drops dead)

TRACY (& ENSEMBLE)

So, Oh, Oh

Give me a chance 

'Cause when I start to dance I'm a movie star (movie star)

Oh, oh, oh 

Something inside of me makes me move (makes me move)

When I hear the groove  (all)

My ma tells me no 

But my feet tell me go! 

It's like a drummer inside my heart (inside my heart)

Oh, oh, oh 

Don't make me wait 

One more moment for my life to start... (all)

ENSEMBLE 

Good morning, good morning 

Waiting for my life to start 

TRACY (& ENSEMBLE) 

I love you Baltimore (all)

Every day's like an open door (ahh)

Every night is a fantasy (fantasy)

Every sound's like a symphony 

I promise Baltimore (all)

That some day when 

I take to the floor (take to the floor)

The world's gonna wake up and see (wah...see-ee)

Gonna wake up and see  (Gonna wake up and see)

Baltimore and me...

ENSEMBLE 

Yes, More Or Less We All Agree

TRACY 

Baltimore and me... 

ENSEMBLE 

Someday the world 

Is gonna see 

TRACY 

Baltimore and me! (and me)

You Can't Stop the Beat

Ever since we first saw the light

A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night

So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today

Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean, or the rain from above

You can try to stop the paradise were dreamin' of

But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay

'Cause you can't stop the beat!

You can't stop the beat

You can't stop the beat

TRACY!
