Lyrics The Cheetah Girls – Cinderella

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,
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 I 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
That wants somebody’s 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

CHORUS – ALL

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.

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 I will survive
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 I will survive
Unless somebody’s on my side
Don’t wanna be no, no, no one else.
I’d rather rescue myself.
