Overprotected Lyrics By Britney Spears

    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 don’t wanna be so damn protected

    pre
    there must be another way
    ’cause i believe in taking chances
    but who am i to say what a girl is to do
    god i need some answers

    what am i to 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

    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
    there must be another way
    ’cause i believe in taking chances
    but who am i to say what a girl is to do
    god i need some answers

    what am i to 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 this is it

    i don’t need nobody telling 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 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 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

    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 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
