"My prerogative"
Get Busy!
Everybody's talking
All this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
They say I'm crazy
I really don't care
That's my perogative
They say I'm nasty
But I don't give a damn
Gettin' girls is how I live
Some ask me 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 permission
Make my own decisions
That's my perogative
It's my perogative
(it's my perogative)
It's the way that I wanna live
(it's my perogative)
I can do just what I feel
(it's my perogative)
No one can tell me what to do
(it's my perogative)
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
With spreadin' myself around
Sing!
Everybody's talking
All this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
(Tell me why)
I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my perogative
It's my perogative
(it's my perogative)
I can do what I wanna do
(it's my perogative)
I can live my life
(it's my perogative)
And I'm doing it just for you
(it's my perogative)
Tell me, tell me
Why can't I live my life (Live my life)
Without all of the things that people say (Oh Oh)
Yo tell it, kick it like this
Oh no no
I can do what I wanna do
Me and you
Together, together, together, together, together
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me (Everybody's talkin')
Why don't they just let me live (Why)
(Why don't they just let me live girl)
I don't need permission (I don't need permission)
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me (Everybody's talkin')
Why don't they just let me live
I don't need permission (I don't need)
Make my own decisions (My own decisions)
That's my prerogative
What is this a bizzit that
I can't have money in my pocket
And people not talk about me
This world is a trip,
I don't know what's going
on these days
Got this person over here talking about me,
this person
Hey, listen, lemme tell you something
This is my prerogative,
I can do what I want to do
I made this money, you didn't
Right Ted?
We outta here
It's my, it's my, it's my, it's my, it's my
my my my my my my my my my my my my my my my
It's my prerogative
