Lyrics:

This is story about control
My control
Control of what I say
Control of what I do
And this time I'm gonna do it my way
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do
Are we ready?
I am
'cause it`s all about control
And I've got lots of it

When I was 17 I did what people told me
Did what my father said
And let my mother mold me
But that was a long ago

I'm in Control
Never gonna stop
Control
To get what I want
Control
I like to have a lot
Control
Now I'm all grown up

First time I fell in love, I didn't know what hit me
So young and so naive, I thought it would be easy
Now I know I got to take

Control
Now I've got a lot
Control
To get what I want
Control
I'm never gonna stop
Control
Now I'm all grown up

Jam, woo woo
Rebel, that's right
I'm on my own
I'll call my own shots
Thank you
Got my own mind
I want to make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life, my life
I wanna be the one in control

So let me take you by the hand
And lead you on this dance (Control)
Is what I've got, because I take the chance
I don't wanna rule the world
Just wanna run my life
So make your life a little easier
When you get the chance just take control

Control
Now I've got a lot
Control
To get what I want
Control
I'm never gonna stop
Control
Now I'm all grown up

Free at last
Out here on my own
Oh oh oh yeah, heee
Now control this

Control
That's right
Control
Career moves
Control
I do what's right for me
Control
And me wants to groove, is that ok?
Yeah oh, Control

I've got my own mind
Oh baby
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I've got my own mind
Wanna make my own decision
When it has to do with my life
I wanna be the one in control

Hop to it

I'm in control, and I love it, thats right
Control
Now I've got a lot
Control
Now I'm all grown up
I'm in control
I'm in control
I'm in control
Don't make me lose it
