Britney Spears
Overprotected (Richi Lopez Remix)
[Intro]
(I need time, love, joy)
(I need space, love)
I need me (Action)

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
What am I to do, do with 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
But my life has been so overprotected

[Verse 2]
I'll 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
[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
What am I to do, do with 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 (Help the way I feel)
But my life has been so overprotected

[Interlude]
I need time, love
I need space (This is it)

[Refrain]
I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I, what, what, 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
[Chorus]
(Yeah, yeah) What am I to do, do with 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
But my life has been so overprotected

[Refrain]
I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I, what, what, 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

[Chorus]
What am I to do, do with 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)
No, I can't help the way I feel (I can't help the way I feel)
But my life has been so overprotected
