Stop!
NIKKI
Stop telling me what to do!
MOMS
Don't!
RICKI
Don't treat me like a child of two
MOM
NO!
MARISSA
I know that you want what's best
MOMS
Please!
NIKKI
But mother, please
GIRLS
Give it a rest!
ALL
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Mama I'm a big girl now!
NIKKI
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!
RICKI
Once upon a time I played with "childhood" toys
But I'd rather play around with "older" boys
So if I get a hickey please don't have a cow
GIRLS
'Cause mama I'm a big girl now!
MARRISA
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!
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
NIKKI
Once I used to fidget 'cause I just sat home
RICKI
But now I'm just like Gidget and I gotta get to Rome!
MARRISA
So say, arrivederci
NIKKI
Toodle-loo!
RICKI
And ciao!
GIRLS
'Cause mama I'm a big girl now!
ALL
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
GIRLS
Mama I'm a big girl now!
(hey mama, say mama)
MARRISA
Once upon a time I was a shy young thing
RICKI
Could barely walk and talk
So much as sing and dance
NIKKI
But let me hit that stage
I wanna take my bow
GIRLS
'Cause mama I'm a big girl now!
NIKKI
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Once upon a time I used to dress up 'Ken.'
RICKI
But now that I'm a woman I like bigger men
MARRISA
And I don't need a barbie doll to show me how
GIRLS
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
GIRLS
Ma, ya 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
NIKKI
Watch me fly!
OTHER GIRLS
Show off
GIRLS
Hey mama, say mama
MARRISA
Someday I will meet a man you won't condemn
RICKI
And we'll have some kids and you can torture them
TRACY
But let me be a star before I make that vow
GIRLS
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now!
MARRISA
Oh-oh-oh
GIRLS
Mama, I'm a big girl now!
NIKKI
Hey-hey-hey
GIRLS
Mama, I'm a big girl
RICKI
Ooh, such a big, big girl!
GIRLS
I'm a big girl now!
ALL
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
Stop! Don't! No! Please!
GIRLS
Mama, I'm a big girl now!
