"You Don't Own Me / Canopy"
("You Don't Own Me" originally by Lesley Gore)

You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
You can steal my heart but not my joy

And don't tell me what to do (don't tell me what to do)
Don't tell me what to say (don't tell me what to say)
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display, 'cause (because)

You don't own me (don't own me)
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me (don't own me)
Don't tie me down, 'cause I'd never stay

And don't tell me what to do (tell me what)
Don't tell me what to say (yeah, yeah)
And please, when I go out with you (go out with you)
Don't put me on display, 'cause

You can hold me
Just don't hold me back, boy
You can hold me
Just don't hold me back, boy

Bring me those arms, boy
I'm tryna cuddle up with you

Come here, babe, I don't wanna fight you
Need your lips all up on mine [?]
I know that we gon' be alright, boo
Come here, babe, I don't wanna fight you
Need your lips all up on mine [?]
I know that we gon' be alright, boo

I'm sorry for asking you to cover me
Was wrong for making you my canopy
Can we kiss the worry away, cuddle till the clouds forget to grey
Ooh, I don't wanna fight, I want you loving me

Come here, babe, I don't wanna fight you
Need your lips all up on mine [?]
I know that we gon' be alright, boo
Come here, babe, I don't wanna fight you
Need your lips all up on mine [?]
I know that we gon' be alright, boo
Boy, yeah, we gonna be alright
