Original Broadway Cast of Thoroughly Modern Millie, Company of Thoroughly Modern Millie, Sutton Foster - Thoroughly Modern Millie lyrics

There are those
(there are those) , I suppose (I suppose)
Think we're mad (think we're mad)
Heaven knows (heaven knows)
The world has gone to rack and to ruin

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

Check your personality

Everything today makes yesterday slow

Better face reality

It's not insanity says Vanity Fair
In fact, it's stylish to

Raise your skirts and bob your hair
(raise your skirts and bob your hair)

Have you seen the way they kiss in the movies

Isn't it delectable?

Painting lips and pencil lining your brows
Now is quite respectable

Good-bye, good goody girl
I'm changing and how

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
Bands are getting jazzier
Everything today is starting to go
Cars are getting snazzier
Men say it's criminal what women'll do
What they're forgetting is this is 1922!

Good-bye, good goody girl
I'm changing and how

I'm changing and how!

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!

Now!
