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, 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 For a handsome prince to come and save me Oh no will survive Unless somebody's on my side Don't wanna be No, no, no one else. I'd rather rescue myself.

All:

Someday I'm gonna find Someone Who wants my soul, heart and mind Whos not afraid to show that he loves me 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
