Stop... Stop telling me what to do-o Don't... Don't treat me like a child of two-o No... I know that you want what's best Please... But mother please... give it a rest!
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 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!
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!
Oooooh! 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!
Oooooh!
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 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)!
