The Big Dollhouse 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
    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... one 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 oollhouse

    LI'L INEZ
    Lady justice,
    Where have you gone?

    EDNA
    Îîi, 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

    EDNA to Matron
    Yoo hoo,
    My stomach's a little sour
    I haven't had food
    In over an 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
    Eek, call my attorneys
    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

    TRACY
    Penny, i can't take
    All this waiting
    I've lost my man
    Plus, my hair's deflating!

    PENNY
    Well Tracy,
    I hate to grumble or grouse

    ALL screaming at Tracy
    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 pawing Velma
    Well, it's iust 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!!!
