My Prerogative Lyrics
Britney Spears
People can take everything away from you
But they can never take away your truth
But the question is
Can you handle mine
They say I'm Crazy
I really don't care
That's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty
But I dont give a damn
Getting boys is how I live
Some messy questions
Why am I so real
But they don't understand me
I really don't know the deal about my sister
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago, before I won this fight
Everybody's talking
all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission
make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
oh it's my prerogative
It's my prerogative
It's the way I want to live
It's my prerogative
You can't tell me what to do
Don't get me wrong
I'm really not souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships
Really gets me down
see nothing wrong with
Spreading myself around
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
It's the way I want to live
It's my prerogative
You can't tell me what to do
Why can't I live my life
Without all of the things that people say
Oh
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission make my own decisions
that's my prerogative (They say I'm crazy)
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why (They say I'm nasty)
I don't need perm
But they can never take away your truth
But the question is
Can you handle mine
They say I'm Crazy
I really don't care
That's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty
But I dont give a damn
Getting boys is how I live
Some messy questions
Why am I so real
But they don't understand me
I really don't know the deal about my sister
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago, before I won this fight
Everybody's talking
all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission
make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
oh it's my prerogative
It's my prerogative
It's the way I want to live
It's my prerogative
You can't tell me what to do
Don't get me wrong
I'm really not souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships
Really gets me down
see nothing wrong with
Spreading myself around
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
Tell me why
I don't need permission make my own decisions
that's my prerogative
It's the way I want to live
It's my prerogative
You can't tell me what to do
Why can't I live my life
Without all of the things that people say
Oh
