Prelude: Thoroughly Modern Millie |
| There are those, I suppose, |
| Think we’re mad |
| Heaven knows the world is gone |
| To wrack and to ruin |
| What we think is chic, unique and quite adorable |
| They think is odd and «Sodom and Gomorrable» |
| 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 skirt and bob your hair |
| In the rumble seat, the world is so cozy |
| If the boy is kissable! |
| And that tango dance they wouldn’t |
| allow? |
| Now is quite permissable! |
| Good-bye, good-goody girl, |
| I’m changing and how |
| So beat the drums 'cause here comes |
| thoroughly modern Millie now! |
| Everything today is thoroughly modern |
| Bands are gettin' jazzier |
| Sverything today is starting to go |
| Cars are gettin' snazzier |
| Men say it’s criminal what women’ll do |
| What they’re forgetting is this is 1922! |
| Have you seen the way they kiss in the movies? |
| Isn’t it delectable? |
| Painting lips and pencil lining your brow |
| 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! |
