My Prerogative (Joe T. Vannelli Light Mix)

Get busy!

Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me (Now, now)

Why don't they just let me live? (Ooh)

I don't need permission, make my own decisions (Oh!)

That's my prerogative

They say I'm crazy, I really don't care

That's my prerogative

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 understand me

Or really don't know the deal

About a brother, tryin' hard to make it right

Not long to go, before I win this fight (Sing)

Everybody's talkin' 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 (Oh)

That's my prerogative (It's my prerogative)

(It's my prerogative)

It's the way that I wanna live

(It's my prerogative)

I can do just what I feel

(It's my prerogative)

No one can tell me what to do

(It's my prerogative)

'Cause what I'm doin', I'm doin' for you now

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 nothin' wrong with spreadin' myself around (Sing)

Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me (Yeah)

Why don't they just let me live? (Tell me why)

I don't need permission (I don't need)

Make my own decisions (My own decisions)

That's my prerogative (It's my prerogative)

(It's my prerogative)

I can do what I wanna do

(It's my prerogative)

Can live my life

(It's my prerogative)

I'm doin' it just for you

(It's my prerogative)

Tell me, tell me why can't I live my life (Live my life)

Without all of the things that people say?

Oh, oh, no

Yo, Teddy! 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', oh)

Why don't they just let me live? (It's my prerogative)

(Why don't they just let me live, girl?)

I don't need permission, make my own decisions

(I don't need permission from nobody)

That's my prerogative (Yeah)

Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me (Everybody's talking)

Why don't they just let me live? (Now; it's my prerogative)

I don't need permission (I don't need)

Make my own decisions (My own decisions)

That's my prerogative

What is this, a blizzard, 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 goin' on these days

Got this person over here talkin' about me, this person

Ay, listen, let me tell you somethin', it's my prerogative

I can do what I wanna 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

(I don't need permission, make my own decisions)

My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my

(That's my prerogative)

Woo!

It's my prerogative, it's my prero—

It's my, it's my, my, my

It's my prerogative, can't you see, baby doll?

Ha, why you wanna talk about me?

(Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me) Tell me, tell me why
