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 The fairytale life wasn't for me 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 my own I will survive Unless somebody's on my side Don't wanna be no, no, no one else I'd rather rescue myself Someday I'm gonna find someone That wants me body, 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 that he has got to be An equal pair 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 my own I will survive Unless somebody's on my side Don't wanna be no, no, no one else I'd rather rescue myself 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 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 my own I will survive Unless somebody's on my side 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 my own I will survive Unless somebody's on my side Don't wanna be no, no, no one else I'd rather rescue myself
