The Cheetah Girls - Cinderella lyrics

[Verse 1: Galleria & Chanel] 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 [Pre-Chorus 1: Dorinda & Aqua] 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: 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 depend on no one else I'd rather rescue myself [Verse 2: Dorinda (All) & Galleria] 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 [Pre-Chorus 2: Aqua & Chanel] 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: 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 depend on no one else I'd rather rescue myself [Bridge: All & Chanel] 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 [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 On I will survive Unless somebody's on my side [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 On I will survive Unless somebody's on my side Don't wanna depend on no one else I'd rather rescue myself
