Lyrics of Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now by Maddie Baillio,Ariana Grande,Dove Cameron,Harvey Fierstein
verse
(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
chorus
Stop, don't, no, please
Stop, don't, no, please
Stop, don't, no, please
Mama, I'm a big girl now
verse
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
verse
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 hickey, please don't have a cow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now
verse
Ma, I gotta tell you that without a doubt
I get 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
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
verse
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, oh
chorus
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)
verse
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
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
verse
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
verse
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
verse
Some 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
Woh-oh-oh
verse
Mama, I'm a big girl now
Hey, hey, hey
Mama, I'm a big girl
Ooh, such a big, big girl
I'm a big girl now
chorus
Stop, don't, no, please
Stop, don't, no, please
Stop, don't, no, please
Mama, I'm a big girl now
