Part III, Chapter three: Mama, I'm a big girl now!

As we arrived to my aunt's house, I said,

"I'm back. Come over here. I want you to meet a new friend that I have since I moved here."

Tracy said,

"I'm Tracy Turnblad. If you haven't seen the Corny Collins show, I am on it."

"Mom, Dad," I began, "I've decided that I don't want to live in the huge city or with the boarding school. I want to stay in Baltimore with new friends."
"You can't. You're only seventeen years old. Don't tell me anything like that."

Then, to my parents, I had a song for them to see.

"You're going to go Crystal, and for we're your parents and it's a lot of money."

Well, I have something to say," I said.

Stop Crystal!

Stop tellin' me what to do

Don't start singing!

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!

Stop! Don't! No! Please!

Mama, I am big girl now

Once upon a time when I was just a kid

You never let me do what the older kids did

So lose that laundry list of what you won't allow

'Cause mama I'm a big girl now

"Oh, Crystal," my mother said.

Once upon a time I used to play with toys

And now I'd rather play around with older boys

So, if I get a hickey, please don't how a cow

'Cause mama I am big girl now

Ma, I gotta tell you without a doubt

I get my best dancin' lessons from you

You're the one who taught me how to "Twist and Shout"

'Cause you should non-stop and you're so twisted too!

Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh

Once I used to fidget

'Cause I just sat home

And now I am just like Gidget and get to Rome

So say, arrvederci, toodle-loo and ciao!

Tracy joined in

'Cause mama I am big girl now

Stop! Don't! No! Please!

Mama, I am big girl now!

Then, I sang solo again

Once upon a time I was a shy young think

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 am big girl now!

Ma, you always taught me from right from wrong

And now I just gotta 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!

Tracy added,

"Show off!"

Oh oh oh

Stop! Don't! No! Please!

Mama, I am big girl now!

Tracy and I smiled, but we knew maybe it wouldn't work.

"Crystal, we can't-you see, it's non-refundable. We've paid the tuition. I thought you wanted this. When you came here you were all, 'Why do I got to live in Baltimore?' Now you want to stay here?"

"Yes, and I don't want boarding school anymore."

"Maybe if you find someone who could like goin' to boarding school. Maybe you won't have to."
