Below, you will find the lyrics for My Prerogative by Britney Spears.
People can take everything away from you
But they can never take away your truth
But the question is
Can you handle mine?
Verse 1
They say I'm crazy!
I really don't care, that's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty!
Verse 1
Getting boys is how I live
Some ask me questions: Why am I so real?
But they don't understand me
I really don't know the deal about my sister
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago before I won this fight
Chorus 1
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
That's my prerogative

It's the way that I wanna live
Chorus 1
They can't tell me what to do

Don't get me wrong

All these strange relationships

I see nothing wrong spreading myself around

I don't need permission, make my own decisions
That's my prerogative

Why can't I try to live my life
Without worry about the things that people say?
