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
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!
Oh Tracy

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 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 you
You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout
Because you shout non-stop, and you're so twisted to

Once I used to fidget 'cause I just sat home
But now I'm just like gadget, and I gotta get to Rome
So say, arrividicci, 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 that stage I wanna take my bow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now

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'm been in a nest for far to 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

Mama, I'm a big girl now
Hey, ya, ya, ya, yay
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
