    MEAN GIRLS is a ferociously funny new musical from an award-winning creative team, including director Casey Nicholaw (Aladdin, The Book of Mormon), composer Jeff Richmond (“30 Rock,” “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde), and book writer Tina Fey (“30 Rock,” Bossypants). Vogue cheers, “MEAN GIRLS is HILARIOUS! The cast is sensational - expert comedians with fierce voices and acting chops to match.” USA Today says, “We’ll let you in on a little secret, because we’re such good friends: GET YOUR TICKETS NOW.” meangirlsonbroadway.com/

    Lyrics: So your best friend screwed you over
    Acted nice when she's not nice
    Well, I have some advice
    'Cause it's happened to me Twice
    Here's my secret strategy
    It always works because
    The world doesn't end
    It just feels like it does
    So raise your right finger
    And solemnly swear
    "Whatever they say about me
    I don't care!"
    I won't twist in knots to join your game
    I will say, "you make me mad"
    And if you treat me bad
    I'll say "you're bad"
    And if I eat alone from this moment on
    That's just what I'll do
    'Cause I'd rather be me
    I'd rather be me
    I'd rather be me than be with you
    We're supposed to all be ladies
    And be nurturing and care
    Is that really fair?
    Boys get to fight, we have to share
    Here's the way that turns out
    We always understand
    How to slap someone down
    With our underhand
    So here's my right finger
    To how girls should behave
    'Cause sometimes what's meant to break you
    Makes you brave
    So I will not act all innocent
    I won't fake apologize
    Let's just fight and then make up, not tell these lies
    Let's call our damage even
    Clean the slate till it's like new
    It's a new life for me
    Where I'd rather be me
    I'd rather be me
    Than be with you
    I'll say, no (No!)
    I'll say, knock it off, with your notes and your rules and your games
    And those sycophants who follow you, I'll remember all their names
    And when they drag you down like they inevitably do
    I will not laugh along with them
    And approve their palace coup
    'Cause that's not me
    I don't need their good opinions
    I have plenty of opinions
    Everybody has opinions but it doesn't make them true
    What's true is being me
    And I'd rather be me
    I'd rather be me than be with you
    So raise them high 'cause playing nice and shy is insulting my IQ
    Yeah yeah yeah
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me than be with you!
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)

      Just because someone wears flannel and swing dances with a girl does not mean they are lesbian. I went to a dance and swing danced with a girl, we both didnt have anyone to go with so we just danced together and I were flannel all the time and I'm not a lesbian. You cannot base someone off their actions or what they were and just label someone when you don't know what their sexuality is!

    Let’s just fight and then make up
    Not tell these lies
    Let’s call our damage even
    Clean the slate till it's like new
    It’s a new life for me
    Where I’d rather be me
    I’d rather be me
    Than be with you
    I'll say, "NO!"
    I’ll say, "knock it off, with your notes
    And your rules and your games."
    And those sycophants who follow you
    I’ll remember all their names
    And when they drag you down
    Like they inevitably do
    I will not laugh along with them
    And approve their palace coup
    ‘Cause that’s not me
    I don’t need their good opinions
    I have plenty of opinions
    Everybody has opinions but it doesn’t make them true
    What’s true is being me
    And I’d rather be me
    I’d rather be me than be with you
    So raise them high ‘cause playing nice and shy is insulting my IQ
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me than be with you
    I'd rather be me
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
    I'd rather be me than be with you

      Ty! I'm like a huge fan so I know all the lyrics off by heart but that was really nice of you to think of others before yourself.

    This is the first time in Broadway history that a girl stands up on/by a table and doesn’t sing about a guy...
