On “You Don’t Own Me”, a cover of the song with the same name by Lesley Gore, Kristin Chenoweth recruits Florida-native songstress, Ariana Grande for the first collaboration ever between both artists.
It is the second track on Chenoweth’s seventh studio album, For the Girls.
[Verse 1: Kristin Chenoweth]
You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys
[Chorus 1: Kristin Chenoweth]
Don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display
[Verse 2: Ariana Grande]
You don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down 'cause I'll never stay
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
[Post-Chorus: Kristin Chenoweth, Ariana Grande & Both]
I'm young (I'm young), and I love to be young

[Chorus: Kristin Chenoweth, Ariana Grande & Both]
I don't tell you what to say

So please let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
[Post-Chorus: Kristin Chenoweth, Ariana Grande & Both]
I'm young, and I love to be young
Oh, I'm free, and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
[Outro: Ariana Grande, Kristin Chenoweth & Both]
No, you don't own me (No, you don't own me)
You don't own me (No, you don't own me)
You don't own me
You don't, you don't, you don't
You don't own me
You don't own me (No, you don't own me)
No, you don't own me (No, you don't own me)
You don't own me
You don't, you don't, you don't
You don't own me

There’s something old school about Ariana where she is this ol...
