You may have given me the breaks Amended all my life's mistakes Ooh but pretty baby You don't own me You may be more than just a friend On whose assistance I depend Ooh but pretty baby You don't own me What makes you think you have the right To say that I owe you my life A life you say is your life only Nothing to do with me Well don't forget for all your power Even in my darkest hour You don't own me You may be fully in control of Every dream I'll ever hold Ooh but pretty baby You don't own me You might have taught me how to dress Whereas before I looked a mess Ooh but pretty baby You don't own me I know it sounds so very cruel To have to say I don't want you After all the love you've shown me Let's not start a feud I'm not your slave don't you forget it And even if I live to regret it You don't own me Why must you always be so right Why can't you never be wrong It's not a crime to say you're sorry And it don't take long If it only takes a minute to say something that's nice If it only takes a minute then why not twice It might interest you to know If I'm unhappy then I'll go No point in staying here being lonely What good would that do It's time you got it through your head Although I'm grateful for all your help You don't own me
