My Perogative Lyrics
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
I don't need commission, make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
They say I'm crazy
I really don't care
That's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty
But I don't give a damn
Getting girls is how I live
Some messy questions
Why am I so real?
But they don't undersand me
I really don't know the deal about her brother
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago
Before I win this fight, sing
(Chorus:)
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
Tell me why I don't need commission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
It's my prerogative (it's my prerogative)
It's the way that I wanna live (it's my prerogative)
I can do just what I feel (it's my prerogative)
No one can tell me what to do (it's my prerogative)
'Cause what I'm doing I'm doing for you
Don't get me wrong
I'm really not souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships really gets me down
I see nothing wrong in spreading myself around
(Chorus)
I can do what I wanna do (it's my prerogative)
I can live my life (it's my prerogative)
And I'm doing it just for you (it's my prerogative)
Tell me, tell me why can't I live my life
Live my life without all of the things
That people say oh
Yo, teddy kick it like this
Oh no no I can do what I wanna do
Me and you together together together together together
(Repeat chorus ad lib and fade)
Why don't they just let me live?
I don't need commission, make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
I really don't care
That's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty
But I don't give a damn
Getting girls is how I live
Some messy questions
Why am I so real?
But they don't undersand me
I really don't know the deal about her brother
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago
Before I win this fight, sing
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
Tell me why I don't need commission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
It's my prerogative (it's my prerogative)
I can do just what I feel (it's my prerogative)
No one can tell me what to do (it's my prerogative)
'Cause what I'm doing I'm doing for you
I'm really not souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships really gets me down
I see nothing wrong in spreading myself around
I can live my life (it's my prerogative)
And I'm doing it just for you (it's my prerogative)
Live my life without all of the things
That people say oh
Oh no no I can do what I wanna do
Me and you together together together together together

I wonder if the people who commented on this song know that these are the lyrics for the Bobby Brown version.....
Wow, when I first heard this song I heard Britney's cover, so I thought it was HER original song. But then I heard this one on the radio today and figured out it wasn't haha. But anyway, AWESOME song!
Uhhh... you got a LOT of those lyrics wrong.
But yeah it's a good song.
Great song
britney is saying its her choice of how she wants to live and no body can tell her how to live it.
