Not completely. There's the song Tracy sings to open the show, with lyrics like these:
The rats on the street
All dance round my feet.
They seem to say
"Tracy, it's up to you."
So, oh, oh,
Don't hold me back,
'Cause today all my dreams will come true.
Good morning Baltimore!
There's the flasher who lives next door,
There's the bum on his bar room stool,
They wish me luck on my way to school.
In the movie of the musical, "the flasher who lives next door" is a cameo by John Waters.
