Britney Jean in Three Parts

 i. lucky

This is a story about a girl named Lucky

Early morning, she wakes up

Knock, knock, knock on the door

It's time for make-up, perfect smile

It's you they're all waiting for

They go

Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?

And they say

She's so lucky, she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?

Lost in an image, in a dream

But there's no one there to wake her up

And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning

But tell me what happens when it stops?

They go

Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?

And they say

She's so lucky, she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night? (Oh)

Whoa

Best actress, and the winner is Lucky (whoa)

(I, I, yeah, oh) Whoa

I'm Roger Johnson for Pop News

Standing outside the arena waiting for Lucky

Oh my God here she comes

Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?

She is so lucky, but why does she cry?

If there is nothing missing in her life

Why do tears come at night?

And they say she's so lucky (so lucky), she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?



ii. piece of me


I'm Miss American Dream since I was seventeen

Don't matter if I step on the scene

Or sneak away to the Philippines

They still gon' put pictures of my derriere in the magazine

You want a piece of me?

You want a piece of me

I'm Miss bad media karma

Another day another drama

Guess I can't see no harm

In working and being a mama

And with a kid on my arm

I'm still an exception

And you want a piece of me

I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous

(You want a piece of me)

I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's shameless!

(You want a piece of me)

I'm Mrs. Extra! Extra! This just in

(You want a piece of me)

I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin

(You want a piece of me)

I'm Mrs. 'You want a piece of me?'

Tryin' and pissin' me off

Well get in line with the paparazzi

Who's flippin' me off

Hopin' I'll resort to startin' havoc

And end up settlin' in court

Now are you sure you want a piece of me?

I'm Mrs. 'Most likely to get on TV for strippin' on the streets'

When getting the groceries, no, for real

Are you kidding me?

No wonder there's panic in the industry

I mean please



iii. overprotected


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

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

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

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

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?
