Thoroughly Modern Millie - Carol Channing

Everything today is thoroughly modern

Check your personality

Everything makes yesterday slow

Better face reality

Its not insanity

Says vanity fair

In fact, it’s to stylish to

Raise your skirts and bob your hair

In a rumble seat it isn’t cozy

If the boy is kissable

And the tango dance they wouldn’t allow

Now is quite permissible

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 getting jazzier

Everything today makes yesterday slow

Cars are getting snazzier

Today it’s criminal, what women’ll do

What they’re, forgetting is its 1922

Have you seen the way they kiss in 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 drum 'cause here comes

Thoroughly modern millie
