Lyrics:

I`d rather rescue myself

When I was just a little girlMy 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

I`d lie in bed
And think about
The person that I wanted to be

The one day I realized
The fairy tale life wasn`t for me

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 snow white waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh I will survive
Unless we`re riding side by side
Don`t wanna depend
no, no, no one else
I`d rather rescue myself

Someday I`m gonna find Someone
Who wants my 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
(i will be there)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

I don`t wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (oh oh)
I don`t wanna be like snow white waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh I will survive
Unless we`re riding side by side
Don`t wanna depend
no, no, no one else
I`d rather rescue myself

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

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 snow white waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh I will survive
Unless we`re riding side by side

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 snow white waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh I will survive
Unless we`re riding side by side
Don`t wanna depend
no, no, no one else
I`d rather rescue myself
