Thoroughly Modern Millie

[Ensemble Men]
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

[Woman 1]
What we think is chic

[Woman 2]
Unique

[Woman 3 and 4]
And quite adorable

[Ensemble Woman]
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 (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 brows
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 Woman]
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!
