Thoroughly Modern Millie lyrics

 

Thoroughly Modern Millie Song Lyrics


ENSEMBLE MEN:
There are those, I suppose
Think we're mad, heaven knows
The world has gone to rack and to ruin
WOMAN #1:
What we think is chic
WOMAN #2:
Unique
WOMEN #3 & #4:
And quite adorable
ENSEMBLE WOMEN:
They think is odd and "Sodom and Gomorrah"-ble!
MILLIE:
But the fact is,
Everything today is thoroughly modern
ENSEMBLE:
Check your personality
MILLIE:
Everything today makes yesterday slow
ENSEMBLE:
Better face reality
MILLIE:
It's not insanity
Says Vanity Fair
In fact, it's stylish to
MILLIE AND ENSEMBLE WOMEN:
Raise your skirts and bob your hair
MILLIE:
Have you seen the way they kiss in the movies
ENSEMBLE MEN:
Isn't it delectable?
MILLIE AND ENSEMBLE WOMEN:
Painting lips and pencil lining your brow
Now is quite respectable
MILLIE:
Good-bye, good goody girl
I'm changing and how
ENSEMBLE:
So beat the drums 'cause here comes
Thoroughly Modern Millie now
What we think is chic, unique and quite adorable
They think is odd and "Sodom and Gomorrah"-ble!
But the fact is
Everything today is thoroughly modern
ENSEMBLE MEN:
Bands are getting jazzier
ENSEMBLE:
Everything today is starting to go
ENSEMBLE WOMEN:
Cars are getting snazzier
ENSEMBLE:
Men say it's criminal what women'll do
What they're forgetting is
MILLIE:
This is 1922!
MILLIE AND ENSEMBLE:
Good-bye, good goody girl
I'm changing and how
MILLIE: I'm changing and how!
ALL:
So beat the drums 'cause here comes thoroughly
Hot off the press! One step ahead! Jazz age!
Whoopee baby! We're so thoroughly modern
MILLIE:
Millie!
ALL:
Now!
