Medley: Thoroughly Modern Millie / Second Hand Rose / Mame (Live At The Copa/1967) - The Supremes

Composer:James F. Hanley/Grant Clarke

There are three well known young ladies

People talk about today

Three young ladies known for fortune and fame

They aren't Mod

They don't sing Rock

A real old fashioned trio

Who are simply known as Millie Rose and Mame

Everything today is thoroughly modern

Check your personality

Everything today makes yesterday slow

You better face reality

It's not insanity

Says Vanity fair

In fact it's stylish to raise your skirts and bob your hair

Oh hey

In a rumble seat the world is so cosy

If the boy is kissable

And that tango dance they wouldn't allow

Goodbye good goody girl

I'm changing and how

So beat the drums

'Cause here comes thoroughly modern Millie now

I'm wearing second hand hats

Audubido

Second hand clothes

Dobidobido

That's why they call me second hand rose

You're ragged

Even my pajamas when I don 'em

Has somebody else's nitials on 'em

Initials

Second hand pearls

Oh I'm wearing second hand curls

I never had a single thing that's new

What's a girl to do about it

Once while strolling through the Ritz

A girl got my goat

What'd she do

She nudged her friend and said

Oh look there's my old fur coat

And how embarrassing

And everyone knows that I'm just second hand rose

From second avenue

You coax that blues right out of the horn Mame

You charm that husk right off of the corn Mame

You've got that banjo strummin

Plunkin out a tune to beat the band

The whole plantation's hummin'

Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land

You make them blackeyed peas and our grits Mame

Seems like the bill of fare at the Ritz Mame

You came you saw you conquered

And absolutely nothing was the same

You're special fascination'll prove to be inspirational

We think you're just sensational Mame

Everything today is thoroughly modern

Bands are getting jazzier

Mame

And everything today is starting to go

The cars are getting snazzier

Men say it's criminal

What women will do

What they're forgetting is

This is 1922

Second hand shoes

I'm wearing second hand hose

They've all been worn before

You're special fascination'll prove to be inspirational

We think you're just sensational

Not to mention Rose and Millie

We think you're just sensational Mame

Yeah

Ooh

Am like that

You're special fascination'll prove to be inspirational

We think you're just sensational Mame

Come on let's groove it one last time

We think you're just sensational Mame

Yeah
