*Cut song, but it is included as a hidden song, playing after "You Can't Stop the Beat''
= Additional songs and score changes
=Because the soundtrack was recorded before previews in New York had begun, several songs in the stage show now differ from the versions recorded for the album, most notably "(The Legend of) Miss Baltimore Crabs" and "Cooties".
A few musical numbers were excised from the cast album entirely, including "The Nicest Kids in Town (Reprise)," "Velma's Revenge," and "The Madison", though the last was included on the 2-Disc Collector's Soundtrack retitled "Boink-Boink".
