Control - A Cappella
When I was 17, I did what people told me, uh
I did what my father said, and let my mother mold me
But that was long ago, I'm in
(Control) never gonna stop
(Control) to get what I want
(Control) I got to have a lot
(Control) now I'm all grown up
First time I fell in love, I didn't know what hit me
So young and so naive, I thought it would be easy
But now I know I've got to take
(Control) now I've got a lot
(Control) to get what I want
(Control) never gonna stop
(Control) now I'm all grown up
Jam, woo-woo
Rebel, that's right
I'm on my own, I'll call my own shots
Thank you
Got my own mind
I wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life, my life
I wanna be the one in control
So let me take you by the hand and lead you on this dance
(Control) is what I've got, because I took a chance
I don't wanna rule the world, just wanna run my life (ooh)
So make your life a little easier
When you get the chance, just take
(Control) (ooh-ooh) now I've got a lot (ooh)
(Control) to get what I want (oh)

Free at last
Out here on my own
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, hee

Wanna make my own decisions
