Cinderella

[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: Dorinda & Aqua]
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, oh

[Chorus: The Cheetah Girls, Chanel]
I don’t wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar (Oh, no, ooh)
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free
(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
I know somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I’d rather rescue myself

[Verse 2: Dorinda & Galleria]
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 (The way I am)
Don't need nobody taking care of me (I will be there)

[Pre-Chorus: Aqua & Chanel]
I will be there for him just as strong as he
Will be there for me
When I give myself that, it has got to be an equal thing

[Chorus: The Cheetah Girls, Chanel]
I don’t wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar (Oh, no)
Waiting for somebody (Somebody) to come and set me free
I don’t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me (Save me)
On, I will survive
I know somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I’d rather rescue myself

[Bridge: The Cheetah Girls & 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 (Is me)
So, I'm gonna set me free, yeah

[Chorus: The Cheetah Girls]
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
I know somebody's on my side

[Chorus: The Cheetah Girls & Galleria]
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
I know somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I’d rather rescue myself
