Mame - It's Today Lyrics

1966 Broadway
Mame the Musical - It's Today Lyrics


The song is written by Jerry Herman.

MAME:
Light the candles,
Get the ice out,
Roll the rug up,
It's today.
Though it may not be anyone's birthday,
And though it's far from the first of the year,
I know that this very minute has history in it,
We're here!

ALL:
It's a time for making merry,
And so I'm for making hay.

MAME:
Tune the grand up,
Dance your shoes off,
Strike the band up,
It's today!

ALL:
And we're living
In the world game,
So this whole game's
What we make.

MAME:
Call the cops out,
Raise the rockets,
Pull the stops out

ALL:
Pull out the stops,
It's today
Light the candles,
Fill the punch bowl,
Throw confetti,
It's today.

GIRLS:
Life can also be lived on a weekday,
So don't depend on a holiday date,
If you need New Year's to bubble,
Then order a double and wait.
Doo doo doo doo dah

ALL:
There's a "thank you" you can give life,
If you live life all the way.
Pull the stops out,
Hold the roof down

MAME:
Fellows watch out,
It's today.

ALL:
It's a time for making merry,
And so I'm for making hay.
Tune the grand up,
Call the cops out,
Strike the band up,
Pull the stops out,
Hallelujah!
It's today!
