[GALLERIA:]
When I was just a little girl,
My mama used to tuck me into bed,
And she'd read me a story.
[CHANEL:]
It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory.
[DORINDA:]
I'd lie in bed
And think about
The person that I wanted to be,
[AQUA:]
then one day I realized
The fairy tale life wasn't for me.
[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don't wanna be like Cinderella,(oh no)
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
I don't wanna be like someone waiting (like someone waiting)
For a handsome prince to come and save me (save me)
On a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.
[ALL:]
Someday im gonna find Someone
who wants my soul, heart and mind
Whos not afraid to show that he loves me
If he cant respect my art he cant have my heart
Somebody who will understand im happy just the way i am
Dont need nobody taking care of me
(i will be there)I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me
when i give myself then it has got to be an equal thing
[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar, (oh no somebody)
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
I don't wanna be like Snow white waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me (save me)
on a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side (somebody's on my side)
Don't wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself. (oh yea)
[ALL:]
I can slay (I can slay) my own dragons. (My own dragons)
I can dream my own dreams. (My own dreams)
My knight in shining armor (shining armor) is me.
So I'm gonna set me free.
[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free.
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side
I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free. (no)
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
on a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend
on, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.
Don't wanna depend
on, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.
Don't wanna depend
on, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.
