Lyrics

[WOMEN] I gotta get out I gotta get out I gotta get out How'd I get in this slammer This cooler This big dollhouse? [MATRON, spoken] Alright, ladies, welcome to the big dollhouse For those of you new to the Baltimore Women's House of Detention Think of me as a mother who eats her young! [VELMA] Locked up with all these Lowlife women [EDNA] And horizontal stripes Ain't exactly slimmin' [AMBER] Is there anybody here Who can dry clean my blouse? [MATRON] It's the maid's day off [ALL] In the big dollhouse [LITTLE INEZ] Lady justice Where have you gone? [EDNA] Oh, Wilbur, check I think I left the iron on! [VELMA] Did you see Corny laughing? I could murder that louse! [MATRON] Honey, that'll getcha life [HOOKERS] In the big dollhouse [ALL] Big house! [VELMA] Locked up here in the pen [ALL] Big house! [AMBER] No phone! [EDNA] No food! [MOTORMOUTH] No men! [EDNA] I need a conjugal visit From my loving spouse [MATRON] Honey, just drop the soap [ALL] In the big dollhouse *Chattering* [EDNA] Yoo-hoo My stomach's a little sour I haven't had food In over a hour [MATRON] You just had a pizza Six burgers, a mouse! [ALL] There's no food left In the big dollhouse [VELMA] Hey, Matron, I have got to complain [HOOKER] Mira, Mami, don't I know you from 1st and Main? [VELMA] Ah, call my shysters Lipshitz and Strauss I gotta get sprung From the big dollhouse [ALL] Big house! [LITTLE INEZ] No fair! [EDNA] No food! [PENNY] No fun! [ALL] Big house! [MOTORMOUTH] And our fight had just begun 'Cause it's freedom's flame Velma'd like to douse So we must break out of this [ALL] Big dollhouse *Chattering* [TRACY] Penny, I can't take All of this waiting I've lost my man Plus, my hair's deflating! [PENNY] Well, Tracy I hate to grumble or grouse [ALL] But it's your fault that we're in This big dollhouse! [BEATNIK CHICK] Hey, cool it, ladies No need to shout And don't ya got an old man To bail you out? [VELMA] Ha, her daddy's a pervert A loser, a souse! [EDNA] Well, it's just us girls In the big dollhouse [ALL] Big house! [AMBER] God, I'm too young to fry! [ALL] Big house! [EDNA] I'm busting out! [MOTORMOUTH] Girl, so am I! [ALL] Lady justice, hear my plea 'Cause the big dollhouse The big dollhouse The big dollhouse Ain't big enough for me! For me! For me! [EDNA] For me!
