Lyrics :) MILLIE: I've studied all the pictures In magazines and books. I've memorized the subway map, too. It's one block north to Macy's And two to Brother's Brooks. Manhattan! I've prepared for you. You certainly are different From what they have back home Where nothing's over three stories high. And no one's in a hurry Or wants to roam, But I do, Though they wonder why. They said I would soon be good and lonely. They said I would sing the homesick blues, So I always have this ticket in my pocket. A ticket home In my pocket To do with as I choose. MILLIE tears ticket into bits. Burn the bridge! Bet the store! Baby's comin' home no more-- Not for the life of me! Break the lock! Post my bail! Done my time I'm outta jail! Not for the life of me! A life that's gotta be more than one a light town Where the light is always red. Gotta be more than an old ghost town Where the ghost ain't even dead! Clap your hands Just-a because Don't ya know that where I am ain't where I was! Not for the life of me! Boh-doh-dee-oh! Not for the life of... Not for the life of... Not for the life of me! CHORUS: Everything today is thoroughly modern! MILLIE: Check your personality! CHORUS: Everything today makes yesterday slow! MILLIE: Better face reality! CHORUS: It's not insanity Says Vanity Fair. In fact, it's stylish to raise your skirts and bob your hair! MILLIE: Raise your skirts and bob your hair! CHORUS: 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!
We did this play a couple months back. Our Millie was amazing. Her voice was loud and spot on! Our school did the best at the Broadway Jr Collection in June! We even got to meet Nick Jonas! Broadway Jr is really fun!

SybellOcarric!!!! I am Miss Dorothy too!!!! I wanted Millie!!! But they thought I would do better with Dorothy and they also DID NOT double cat me either!!! I am sooooo excited blocked some scenes yesterday!!! I have to act all prim and proper and that is sooooo not me!!! Wish me good luck!
Can somebody PLEASE give me a list of songs miss Dorothy sings in this version? I can't find a list anywhere and I'm pretty sure it's different than the regular version
I have a tryout for this play in a week and I'm sooo nervous!!! I've been practicing... but I'm younger than all the other people who are trying out. You see, the 7th and 8th graders are doing the play, but they invited the sixth graders (which I am but I am the age of a fifth grader)!!! Any tips???!!!
Lyrics :)
MILLIE:
I've studied all the pictures
In magazines and books.
I've memorized the subway map, too.
It's one block north to Macy's
And two to Brother's Brooks.
Manhattan!
I've prepared for you.
You certainly are different
From what they have back home
Where nothing's over three stories high.
And no one's in a hurry
Or wants to roam,
But I do,
Though they wonder why.
They said I would soon be good and lonely.
They said I would sing the homesick blues,
So I always have this ticket in my pocket.
A ticket home
In my pocket
To do with as I choose.
MILLIE tears ticket into bits.
Burn the bridge!
Bet the store!
Baby's comin' home no more--
Not for the life of me!
Break the lock!
Post my bail!
Done my time I'm outta jail!
Not for the life of me!
A life that's gotta be more than one a light town
Where the light is always red.
Gotta be more than an old ghost town
Where the ghost ain't even dead!
Clap your hands
Just-a because
Don't ya know that where I am ain't where I was!
Not for the life of me!
Boh-doh-dee-oh!
Not for the life of...
Not for the life of...
Not for the life of me!
CHORUS:
Everything today is thoroughly modern!
MILLIE:
Check your personality!
CHORUS:
Everything today makes yesterday slow!
MILLIE:
Better face reality!
CHORUS:
It's not insanity
Says Vanity Fair.
In fact, it's stylish to raise your skirts and bob your hair!
MILLIE:
Raise your skirts and bob your hair!
CHORUS:
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:

ALL:
Now!

Forever searching for the songs Miss Dorothy sings ugh 😩 I got her part 😅❤️
ayy cx you nailed it tho
I was in this musical last year as Mrs.Meers and i had sooo much fun with it
Whenever I listen to this song I think of the choreography we are learning.
:D Did this over the summer, I was Miss Dorothy. It was so much fun and this music really helped! Thanks for uploading!
I love this song. I did this about 2 years ago. Such a good show.
YES! Love LOVE THIS
This show is simply fantastic. Absolutely everything about it is truly what makes musicals, in general, so glorious.
