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 wth toys

But now I'd rather play around with teenage boys

So if I get a hickey, please don't have a cow

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 nonstop, and you're so twisted too, whoa-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

Whoa-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

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

Whoa-oh

Mama, I'm a big girl now

Hey-yeah

Mama, I'm a big girl

Woo! 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
