Thoroughly Modern Millie Testo

MEN:There are those,
I suppose,
Think we're mad--
Heaven knows
The world has gone
To wreck and to ruin.
WOMEN:
What we think is chic, unique and quite adorable,
They think is odd and Sodom-and-Gammorable!
MILLIE:
But the fact is:
Everything today is thoroughly modern!
CHORUS:
Check your personality!
MILLIE:
Everything today makes yesterday slow!
CHORUS:
Better face reality!
MILLIE:
It's not insanity
Says Vanity Fair.
In fact, it's stylish to raise your skirts and bob your hair!
CHORUS WOMEN:
Raise your skirts and bob your hair!
MILLIE:
Have you seen the way they kiss in the movies?
CHORUS MEN:
Isn't it delictible?
ALL WOMEN:
Painting lips and pencil-lining your brow
Now is quite respectable.
MILLIE:
Goodbye, good-goody girl!
I'm changing, and how!
ALL:
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-Gammorable!
But the fact is:
Everything today is thoroughly modern!
CHORUS MEN:
Bands are getting jazzier!
ALL:
Everything today is starting to go!
CHORUS WOMEN:
Cars are getting snazzier!
ALL:
Men say, 'It's criminal
What women'll do!'
What they're forgetting is
MILLIE:
This is nineteen twenty-two!
(Dance break)
ALL:
Goodbye, 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 in the Jazz Age!
Whoopee, baby!
We're so thoroughly
Modern...
MILLIE:
Millie
ALL:
Now!
