Britney Spears Posters The A to Z of Britney Spears: Lyrics

Overprotected

Written by M Martin/Rami

I need time
Love, joy
I need space, love
I need... me
Action

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 dont wanna be so damn protected
There must be another way
'Cos I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
Gotta need some answers

What am I to do to win my life
(You will 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
For my life has been so overprotected

I tell them 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 realise I'm overprotected
There must be another way
'Cos I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
Gotta need some answers

What am I to do to win my life
(You will 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
For my life has been so overprotected

I need time... love... I need space

I don't need nobody telling me just
What I wanna
What I what what what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I say no, no
Nobody's telling me just what
I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

Action

What am I to do to win my life
(You will 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
For my life has been so overprotected

I don't need nobody telling me just
What I wanna
What I what what what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I say no, no
Nobody's telling me just what
I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do to win my life
(You will 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
For my life has been so overprotected
