Lyrics:
Maureen
Every single day
I walk down the street
I hear people say Baby so sweet
Ever since puberty
Everybody stares at me
Boys, girls, I can't help it baby
So be kind and don't lose your mind
Just remember that I'm your baby
Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby
Or leave me
A tiger in a cage
Can never see the sun
This diva needs her stage
Baby, Let's have fun
You are the one I choose
Folks would kill to fill your shoes
You'll love the lime light, too, now baby
So be mine, but don't waste my time
Crying, "Oh honey bear! Are you still my-my-my baby?"
Joanne
Don't you dare!
Maureen
Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby or leave me
No way, can I be what I'm not
But, hey! Don't you want your girl hot?
Don't fight
Don't lose your head
'Cause every night who's in your bed?
Who's in your bed?
Who?
Joanne
It won't work
I look before I leap
I love margins and discipline
I make lists in my sleep baby
What's my sin?
Never quit
I follow through
I hate mess, but I love you
What to do with my impromptu baby
So be wise 'cause this girl satisfies
You got a prize so don't compromise
You're one lucky baby
Take me for what I am
Maureen
A control freak
Joanne
Who I was meant to be
Maureen
A snob yet over-attentive
Joanne
And if you give a damn
Maureen
A loveable, droll geek
Joanne
Take me baby or leave me
Maureen
And anal retentive!
Both
That's it!
Joanne
The straw that breaks my back
Both
I quit
Joanne
Unless you take it back
Both
Women!
Maureen
What is it about them?
Both
Can't live with them or without them
Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby or leave me
Take me baby...
Or leave me
Guess I'm leavin'
I'm gone!
