Britney Spears - Britney Lyrics
I'm A Slave 4 U
I know I may be young, but I've got feelings too.
And I need to do what I feel like doing.
So let me go and just listen.
All you people look at me like I'm a little girl.
Well did you ever think it be okay for me to step into this world.
Always saying little girl don't step into the club.
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why cause dancing's what I love.
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOOOA) (Do you like it)
Get it get it, get it get it (OOOHHHH) (This feels good)
I know I may come off quiet, I may come off shy.
But I feel like talking, feel like dancing when I see this guy.
What's practical is logical. What the hell, who cares?
All I know is I'm so happy when you're dancing there.
I'm a slave for you. I cannot hold it; I cannot control it.
I'm a slave for you. I won't deny it; I'm not trying to hide it.
Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
(I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place.
Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
(Are you ready)
Leaving behind my name, my age.
(Lets go)
(Like that)
(You like it)
(Now watch me)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (OOOHHHH)
(Panting)
I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
(I just can't help myself)
I really wanna do what you want me to.
(I just feel I let myself go)
I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
(Wanna see you move)
I really wanna do what you want me to.
(Uh Uh Uh)
Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
(I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place.
Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
(Are you ready)
Leaving behind my name, my age.
I'm a slave for you. (Take that) I cannot hold it; I cannot control it.
I'm a slave (It just feels right) for you. (It just feels good)
I won't deny it; I'm not trying to hide it. (Baby)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (OOOHHHH)
(Panting)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (WHOOOOOA)
Get it get it, get it get it (OOOHHHH)
(Panting)
I'm a slave for you. (Here we go now)
I cannot hold it; I cannot control it.
I'm a slave for you. (Here we go) I won't deny it, (Yeah)
I'm not trying to hide it.
(Like that)

Overprotected
I need time, love, joy
I need space, love, now, I need me
Say hello, to the girl that I am
You're gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes, just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be, so damn protected
There must be another way
'Cause I believe in takin' chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers
What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
I tell 'em what I like, what I want, and what I don't
But every time I do, I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't believe what I hear about the world
I realize I'm overprotected
So there must be another way
'Cause I believe in takin' chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers
What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
I need time, love, I need space
This is it
I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I want, or what I'm gonna
(I need)
Do about my destiny
(I say no, no)
Nobody's tellin' me just what I wanna
(Do, do)
I'm so fed up with people tellin' me to be
Someone else but me, yeah
What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I want, or what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
(I say no, no)
Nobody's tellin' me just what I wanna
(Do, do)
I'm so fed up with people tellin' me to be
Someone else but me
What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

Lonely
To think I'm so naive
How dare you
Play with me?
I gave you
Heart and soul, yeah
Tell me baby, please
Why you screwing
With my head?
I don't think
You understand
I won't take your huh
No more
Don't knock on my door
Not this time
Because I recognise
I've heard it all before
And I-E-I-E-I
Think of all the time
That I've wasted
Think of all the times
That I took you back
Ain't no way
I'll be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Let's just face it
(Face it)
Better off alone and
I won't turn back
Thought that
I would be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Don't tell me
How to feel
Or say that
You're for real
My mind's made up
I'm cool without you
You got no more appeal
Now this girl
Don't need no man
Says what she can do
What she can
Now I live for me
Boy does that
Make you weep?
Not this time
Because I realise
I've heard it all before
And I-E-I-E-I
I think of all the time
That I've wasted
I think of all the times
That I took you back
Ain't no way
I'll be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Let's just face it
(Face it)
Better off alone and
I won't turn back
Thought that
I would be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Think of times
You made me cry
You had me so confused
I'm tired of trying
Leave behind this
What's a girl to do
[Spoken:]
Think of all the times
You made me sick
I used to think
I couldn't handle it
What you think
I'm just another chick?
Messed with Brit
Boy you must
Have tripped
What were you thinkin'
When you lost my trust?
You had it all now
You're left with nothing
Oh baby, now
I know you
Want my touch
And now you're lonely
And you still want me
Think of all the time
That I've wasted
Think of all the times
That I took you back
Ain't no way
I'll be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Let's just face it
(Face it)
Better off alone and
I won't turn back
Thought that
I would be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Think of all the time
That I've wasted
Think of all the times
That I took you back
Ain't no way
I'll be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in
Let's just face it
(Face it)
Better off alone and
I won't turn back
Thought that
I would be lonely
I don't wanna
Let you back in

Im Not A Girl Not Yet A Woman
I used to think
I had the answers to everything
But now I know
That life doesn't always
Go my way, yeah
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
There is no need to protect me
It's time that I
Learn to face up to this on my own
I've seen so much more than you know now
So don't tell me to shut my eyes
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
This girl will always find
Her way
(I'm not a girl)
I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe
(Not yet a woman)
I'm just tryin' to find the woman in me, yeah
(All I need is time) oh, all I need is time
(A moment that is mine) that's mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time (is all I need)
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
Oh
Not yet a woman

Boys
For whatever reason
I feel like I've been wanting you all my life
You don't understand?
I'm so glad we're at the same place
At the same time, it's over now
I spotted you dancing
You made all the girls stare
Those lips and your brown eyes
And the sexy hair
I should shake my thing
I make the world want you
Tell your boys you'll be back
I wanna see what you can do
What would it take for you to just leave with me?
Not trying to sound conceited
But me and you we're meant to be
You're a sexy guy, I'm a nice girl (don't you know?)
Let's turn this dance floor into our own little nasty world
Boys, sometimes a girl just needs one (you know I need you)
Boys, to love her and to hold (I just want you to touch me)
Boys, and when a girl is with one
Boys, then she's in control
Took the boy off the dance floor
Screaming in his ear
Must have said something 'bout me (what you say?)
Because he's looking over here
You looking at me with a sexy attitude
But the way your boys moving it
It puts me in the mood
What would it take for you to just leave with me?
Not trying to sound conceited
But me and you were meant to be (don't you know?
You're a sexy guy, I'm a nice girl (don't you know?)
Let's turn this dance floor into our own little nasty world
Boys, sometimes a girl just needs one (I get nasty)
Boys, to love her and to hold (I get nasty)
Boys, and when a girl is with one (I get nasty)
Boys, then she's in control (You like that? Here we go)
Tonight, let's fly, boy have no fear (have no fear)
There's no time to lose (What are you waiting for?)
And next week, you may not see me here
So, boy, just make your move (let me see what you can do)
Boys, sometimes a girl just needs one
Boys, to love her and to hold (the way you move)
Boys, and when a girl is with one
Boys, then she's in control
Come with me, let's fly into the night
Oh boy, tonight is ours (It's just you and me, baby)
When hugging me, make sure you hold me tight
Let's head for the stars
Get nasty, oh
Boys, sometimes a girl just needs one
Boys, to love her and to hold (Get nasty)
Boys, and when a girl is with one (Get nasty)
Boys, then she's in control
Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em

Been about seventeen

So come and take the time
And dance with me, owh
He smiled, so I got up
And asked for his name
"But that don't matter" he said
"Because it's all the same"
I said: "Can I take you home
Where we can be alone?"
And next we were moving on
And he was with me, yeah, with me
And we were moving on
And singing that same old song

Cinderella
I used to be your girlfriend and I know I did it well
Oh yes you know its true
You'd call me Cinderella
All you had to do was yell
And I'd be there for you
Here I am
So try to forgive me
I don't believe in fairy tales
Here we are with nothing but honesty
I've had enough
I'm not gonna stay
I'm sorry for running away like this
And I'm sorry I've already made my wish
Oh, But Cinderellas got to go
From time to time I'd try to tell just what was on my mind.
You'd tell me not today.
Come back, do that.
Wheres, Cinderella at...
Was all you had to say
Here I am, so try to forgive me
I don't believe in fairy tales
here we are with nothing but honesty
i've had..enough...i'm not gonna stay
I'm sorry for running away like this 'n i'm sorry
i've already made my wish. Ah, but cinderella's
got to go
i'm sorry just tryin' to live my life
don't worry, you're gonna be alright
but cinderellas got to go.
[spoken]
I used to say I want you, you cast me in your spell.
I did everything you wanted me to, but now i shall..
break free from all your lies. I won't be blind you see,
my love it can't be sacrificed, i won't return to thee.
[sung]
I'm so sorry, i've already made up my mind
[spoken]
I won't return to thee
[sung]
I'm sorry to say, i'm runnin' away now...
don't worry, you will be alright
i'm runnin' away, i've made up my mind now..
your gonna have to let me go
I'm sorry for runnin' away like this, and I'm
sorry I've already made my wish
Oh, but cinderella's got to go
I'm sorry, just tryin' to live my life, don't worry,
your going to be alright!
but cinderella's got to go.

Let Me Be
You try to read me
You try to figure out
You try to breathe me
But you can't blow me out
You try to feel me
But I'm so out of touch
I won't be falling
You won't have to pick me up
Sorry if I sound confused
I don't feel the way you do
But I won't turn around
But I won't turn around
[Chorus:]
Think that I might back down but I won't
Think that I might have doubts but I don't
No insecurities, won't you just let me, let me be?
Think that you know me now but you don't
Think that I can't stand on my own
It ain't my philosophy,
Won't you just let me, let me be?
Trust in my instincts
Trust that I know what's right
These are the reasons
That keep you up at night (at night)
Tell me "Go slow"
This is my flow
'Cause you don't know
Know what I know
Let me tell you how it feels
Baby it's time that you see me for real
Sorry if I sound confused
I don't feel the way you do
But I won't turn around
But I won't turn around
[Chorus]
Trust that I know
This is my show
Letting you know
Gotta go the way I go
Trust that I know
This is my show
Letting you know
Gotta go the way I go

Bombastic Love
I..am here to testify
that your the only one i belong to
I don't know where to start

the fact that you and I should meet
(i know we're gonna get...know we're gonna get get)
bombastic love, so fantastic where i'm
completely yours and you are mine
and its gonna be exactly like..in a movie
when we fall in love for the first time
now i know why, i feel so insecure
i never understood what its good for
i gotta make sure the darkness won't stop me again
i can't sit and wait any more
you made me realize..not to compromise
the fact that you and i should meet
(i know we're gonna get..gonna get get)
bombastic love, so fantastic
where i'm completely yours and you are mine
and its gonna be exactly like in a movie
when we fall in love for the first time
Its gonna be bombastic love
everythings gonna be alright.
when i am yours and you are mine
its gonna be fantastic love
when i wake up everthing is still the same
and you don't even know my name
[bom bom]
I know its gonna be:

Oh Baby, Oh Baby
Oh Baby, Oh Baby
In love, In no belief
Never found inside of Me
Built these walls up so high
Needed my room to breathe
Oh Baby, Oh baby
You tear them down
Can't believe you've changed my mind
Oh Baby, Oh Baby

Stay with me a while
All things fall in to place

With you I get so high
Lost in the crystal sky
You are this melody
That's where you take me
I never fell before
How did u find my door
The key up to my soul
To you forever more
Oh baby, Oh baby
You make me rise
And never did I once think twice
Oh Baby, Oh baby
You make me smile
Stay with me a while
Ooh!
All things fall in to place
My heart, it feels so safe
You are my melody

What Its Like To Be Me
Do you know what it's like?
Come on, come on
Baby tell me
Do I look like the kind of girl
That you want to take home
Want to make me your own
Do you even know what I like
Just what I'm living for
What I adore
Baby, take the time to realize I'm
Not the kind to sacrifice
The way I am
So if you want to be my man (baby)
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or I'm through
Can't you see that
If you want to stay around (I'm telling you)
You've got to figure me out
Take your time or you lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously
Baby you don't know
What it's like to be me
Do you know what it's like?
Do you know what it's like?
Don't you get it twisted boy
I want you too
But you got my heart to win
Before I let you in
And this deceives you baby
I'm not the average lady
I need someone to love
Baby, take the time to realize I'm
Not the kind to sacrifice
The way I am
So if you want to be my man (baby)
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or I'm through
Can't you see that
If you want to stay around (I'm telling you)
You've got to figure me out
Take your time or you lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously
Baby you don't know
What it's like to be me
Baby, get to know me
Then you can show me
That your love for me is true
I'll give you everything
That a girl can give
Don't you want to be my man?
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or I'm through
Can't you see that
If you want to stay around (I'm telling you)
You've got to figure me out
Take your time or you lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously
Baby you don't know
What it's like to be me
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or I'm through
Can't you see that
If you want to stay around (I'm telling you)
You've got to figure me out
Take your time or you lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously
Baby you don't know
What it's like to be me
