SONG: Big, Blonde And Beautiful ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman From the musical, Hairspray
E13Once upon a time, girl, I was just like you. A9Never let my extra large largesse shine through

A9Then one day my grandma who was big and stout, C9She said you gotta love yourself from inside out. And just as F#13soon as I learned how to strut my funky stuff. C9 B7(#5) I found out that the world at large can't get enough. So..E.
