Cinderella Lyrics:


When I was just a little girl
My momma used to tuck me into bed
and she'd read me a story
It always was about a Princess in distress
And how a guy would save her and
end up with the glory
I'd lie in bed and think about the person
that I wanted to be
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life
wasn't for me

Chorus:
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' 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, I will survive, unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself

Someday I'm gonna find someone that wants
somebody soul, heart, and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand
I'm happy just the way I am
Don't need nobody taking care of me
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

I can slay my own dragons
I can dream my own dreams
My knight in shining armor is me
So I'm gonna set me free

Chorus 2 Times

Don't wanna be no-no-no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
