Lyrics The Cheetah Girls

The Cheetah Girls

Cinderella

When I was just a little girl

My momma 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

Fairy tale life, wasn't for me

I don't wanna be like Cinderella

Sittin' in a dark ol' dusty cellar

Waitin' for somebody to come

And set me free

I don't wanna be someone waiting

For a handsome prince to come

And save me all I will survive

Unless somebody's on my side

Don't wanna be, no, no, no, no

Oh yes, I'd rather rescue myself

I can save my own

(I can save)

Dragons, I can dream my own dreams

(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 ol' dusty cellar

Waitin' for somebody to come

And set me free
