is a musical comedy about integration and accepting each other for who we are; how one girl from the wrong side of town
can make a difference. It takes place in 1962, but sadly, the issues that the show addresses are still in the headlines all over the world.
We all need a little Tracy in us to stand up and fight for the injustices we are witness to. As Eldridge Cleaver wrote, If youre not part of
the solution, youre part of the problem.

These amazing characters from the mind of John Waters have lived on in countless productions all over the world, and we have seen many
of them on our own dime! From the smallest towns in rural America to a theater in South Africa, Tracy Turnblad and gang have spread
the word to stop living with hate and fear. Everyone can and should be able to dance to the same beat.

We would be put in detention if we didnt thank Craig Zadan, Neil Meron, Bob Greenblatt and NBC for assembling this amazing cast and
crew. And if not for Margo Lion, Harvey Fierstein, Jack OBrien and Jerry Mitchell, our hair could have never reached such dizzying heights.
We are two of the luckiest (still living!!) songwriters in town. And its all for Mark ODonnell.

Wilbur Edna Then I cant wait for parole Theres a cry in the distance I bet her two-ton mamas got em too!
I didnt have a clue Reach out and touch
Styles keep achangin Youll always be first string Its a voice that comes from deep within And thats for you!
Til you came banging on my door All Ultra Clutch!
The worlds rearrangin Theres a cry asking why
Wilbur Cause without love So if youre a redhead, a blonde
But Edna, youre timeless to me Now without love I pray the answers up ahead 18. You Cant Stop the Beat
Ring-a-ding-ding! or brunette
Hemlines are shorter Life is like my dad without his bromo Seaweed Cause I know where Ive been Tracy
A beer costs a quarter Wilbur & Edna Without love Life is like a prom that Theres a road weve been travelin
Corny You cant stop an avalanche
But time cannot take what comes free Youre timeless to me Lifes like making out to Perry Como Wont invite us Just take my advice As it races down the hill
Lost so many on the way
And you might just get You can try to stop the seasons, girl
Youre like a stinky old cheese, babe Edna Darling, Ill be yours All But the riches will be plenty
The only thing better than hairspray Butcha know you never will
Just gettin riper with age Youre timeless to me Forever Without love Worth the price, the price we had to pay
Thats me And you can try to stop my dancin feet
Youre like a fatal disease, babe Cause I never wanna be Theres a dream in the future
And theres no cure
Wilbur Link Ensemble But I just cannot stand still
Youre timeless to me Without love Its like getting my big Theres a struggle we have yet to win Cause the world keeps spinning
So let this fever rage So darling, throw away the key Hes Corny Collins!
Break and laryngitis And theres pride in my heart round and round
And my hearts keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til I heard the drums then
I found my way
Tracy & Link
Cause you cant stop the beat
Ever since the whole world began
A woman found out if she shook it
She could shake up a man
And so Im gonna shake and shimmy it
The best that I can today
Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But I never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
Im gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat!
Penny
You cant stop a river
As it rushes to the sea
You can try to stop the hands of time
Butcha know it just cant be
And if they try to stop us, Seaweed
Ill call the NAACP!
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and round
And my hearts keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til I heard the drums
Then I found my way
Penny & Seaweed
Cause you cant stop the beat
Penny, Seaweed, Tracy & Link
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it
On a Saturday night
And so Im gonna shake and shimmy it
With all my might today
Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
Were dreaming of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
Cause you cant stop the beat!
Tracy
So come on!
Ensemble
Come on!
All
Come on!
Ever since we first saw the light

On a Saturday night
And so Im gonna shake and shimmy it
With all of my might today
Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
Were dreaming of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
You cant stop the beat!
You cant stop the beat!!
You cant stop the beat!!!
Edna
You cant stop my happiness
Cause I like the way I am
And you just cant stop my knife
and fork
When I see a Christmas ham
So if you dont like the way I look
Well, I just dont give a damn!
Edna & Wilbur
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and round
And my hearts keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til I heard the drums
And I found my way
Cause you cant stop the beat
All

A woman found out if she shook it
She could shake up a man
And so Im gonna shake and shimmy it
The best that I can today
Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But I never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
Im gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat!

And so Im gonna shake and shimmy it
With all of my might today

19. Come So Far
(Got So Far to Go)
Motormouth & Penny
Oh, oh, oh
Hey, old friend, lets look back
On the crazy clothes we wore
Aint it fun to look back
And to see its all been done before?
All those nights together
Are a special memory
And I cant wait for tomorrow
Just as long as youre dancing
next to me
Cause its so clear every year we
get stronger
Whats gone is gone, the past is
the past
Turn the radio up and then hit the
gas cause
I know weve come so far
But weve got so far to go
I know the road seems long
But it wont be long til its time to go
So most days well take it fast
And some nights well take it slow
I know weve come so far
But baby, baby, weve got so far to go
Hey, old friend, together
Side-by-side and year-by-year
The road was filled with twists and turns
Oh, but thats the road that got us here
Lets move past the bad times
But before those memories fade
Lets forgive but not forget
And learn from the mistakes we made
Cause its so clear every year we
get stronger
So dont give up and dont say when
And just get back on the road
again cause
I know weve come so far
But weve got so far to go
I know the road seems long
But it wont be long til its time to go
So most days well take it fast
And some nights well take it slow
I know weve come so far
But baby, baby, weve got so far to go
Hey, old friend, come along for the ride
Theres plenty of room so jump inside
The highways rocky every now
and then
But its so much better then where
Ive been
Just keep movin at your own speed
Your heart is all the compass
youll ever need
Lets keep cruisin the road were on
Cause the rear view mirror only shows
whats gone, gone, gone.
Got so far to go
Oh, its clear every year we get stronger
So shine that light, take my hand
Lets dance into the promised
land cause
I know weve come so far
But weve got so far to go
I know the road seems long
But it wont be long til its time to go
So most days well take it fast
And some nights well take it slow
I know weve come so far
But baby, baby, weve got so far to go
But baby, baby, weve got so far to go
Baby, baby, ooh
Baby, baby weve got so far to go
Baby, baby, ooh
Baby, baby, weve got so far to go
