When I was just a little girl
my mama 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
this fairy tale life wasn`t for me
I don`t wanna be like Cinderella
sittin` in a dark cold dusty cellar
waitin` 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
Don`t wanna depend on no..no..no one else
I`d rather rescue myself
I can slay my own dragons
I can dream my own dreams
my night in shining armor is me
SO I`M GONNA SET ME FREE!!
(chorus)
