Raven Symone – Cinderella lyrics
Galleria: When I was just a little girl
My mama used to tuck me into bed
And she read me a story

Chanel: It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory

Dorinda: I'd lie in bed and think about
The person that I wanted to be

Aqua: Then one day I realized
The fairytale life wasn't for me ohh...

Chorus: all
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark old 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 will survive unless somebody's on my side

I'd rather be no no no oneee else(can also be "don't wanna depend on
No one else")
I'd rather rescue myself

Dorinda: Someday I'm gonna find someone
That wants somebodys soul heart and mind

All: Who's not afraid to show that he loves me

Galleria: Somebody who will understand I'm Happy just the way I am
Don't need nobody takin care of me.(I'll

Aquanette: I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for
Me.

Chanel: When I give myself it has got to be an equal thinggg (hey yeah...)

Chorus: all
I don't wanna be like cinderella (Chanel: Ohh... Noo...)
Sitting in a dark old dusty cellar
Waitin for somebody (chanel: Sombody...)
To come and set me free.
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Don't wanna be no-no-no one else
I'd rather rescue myself

I can slay (I can slay) my own dragons
I can dream (I can dream) my own dreams
My knight in shining armor is me-e-ee (is me)

Galleria: So I'm gonna set me free!

Chorus: all
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
No I will survive unless somebody's on my side

Aqua: Uh-uh

Chorus: all
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
No I will survive unless somebody's on my side

I'd rather be no no no onee else
I'd rather rescue myself!
