My momma used to tuck me into bed
and she read me a story
我妈常常把我塞到床上讲故事。
It always about a Princess in distress
故事总是关于落难公主的，
And how a guy would save her and end up with the glory

I'd lie in bed and think about the person that
I wanted to be

Then one day I realized the fairy tale life
wasn't for me
于是有一天我突然意识到，这种童话故事不适合我！
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
我可不想当灰姑娘，
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
坐在阴暗阁楼的灰堆里，
Waiting for somebody
to come and set me free
等着谁来救我出去，给我自由。
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white
我可不想当白雪公主，坐等王子来救我，
哦对了，还得是骑着白马的呢！
unless we're riding side by side
我们要是一人骑一匹并排走还差不多。
Don't want to depend on no-one else
I'd rather rescue myself

Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my soul
heart and mind

Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am
他也能理解我的喜怒哀乐。
Don't need nobody taking care of me
(I will be there)
我不需要别人的照顾，
（有我自己呢）
I will be there for him just as strong as he
will be there for me
我会在他身边，就像他在我身边一样坚强。
When I give myself then it has got to be
an equal thing
我能献出真心实意，然后彼此相敬如宾。
I can slay my own dragon
