lirik lagu original off-broadway cast of “grey gardens” – tomorrow’s woman

[edie]
girls today bring more to the table
than finger bowls and flowers
trapped in ivory towers
petting the cat
phooey on that!

we don’t braid our hair like rapunzel
or wait for some knight on a horse
we get where we get
by our hard work and sweat ~

[lee]
and get everything else in divorce

[edie]
come five~fifteen
with scissors and smirks
i’ll give mother’s apr~n the works

and with the snip, snip, snipping of strings
welcome tomorrow’s woman!
mother can keep on bossing
finally free
she can’t touch me
[edie, jackie and lee]
with no one clip, clip, clipping my wings
watch as tomorrow’s woman
takes the sky

[edie]
and oh, what a view
from my grumman j~2
in the clouds with my modern~day guy!

[lee]
it’s easy for you, edie. you’ve got style and smarts~

[jackie]
~and joe!

[edie]
girls like you will always be welcome
where compliments are given
staunch, unbowed, and driven
solid as earth
we know our worth

[jackie]
i might be a model in paris
[edie]
exactly!

[lee]
or marry bulgaria’s prince

[edie]
why not?

while i’ll be the toast
of “the washington post”
for re~doing the white house in chintz!

[jackie]
“chintz!”

[edie]
our yacht will sail the aegean sea
just edie~

[jackie]
and jackie~

[lee]
and lee!
[edie, jackie and lee]
and with the snip, snip, snipping of strings
welcome tomorrow’s woman!

[edie]
life is a lovely crossing
starting tonight

[edie, jackie and lee]
from montauk light!

lifted by high hopes
sisterhood brings
watch as tomorrow’s women
seize the day

[jackie]
i’ll gamble at monte and lose my fur coat!

[lee]
i’ll skinny~dip naked where gondolas float!

[edie]
get out of grey gardens ~

[edie, jackie and lee]
~and onto the boat
with a scarf in my hair
foster~grants for the glare
and no mothers to get in our way!
