I jumped so high, I touched the sky I'm bursting like a firework You know I'm right, I'm feeling tight And now I'm going off to work You know I always feel okay You know I always feel this way Oh whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh Woke up yesterday and I decided I would be this way I gave myself a test to see if I could be my best People try to tell me things that they believe I cannot do It doesn't get to me because I know it isn't true Anything, that I try, I know one day I can accomplish I'll get there someday, I'll succeed at anything that I wish I'll work all night and when I'm tired I'll work a little longer I'll train my body so that I can get a little stronger

This is my game now Don't care, just settle down Yeah this is my game now This is my game now Don't care, just settle down Yeah this is my game now I need you to settle down 'Cause you're gonna be beat around the world I don't care if you're ready now 'Cause this is how, I rock this girl You might get a little mopey When I get the trophy, right now I'm raising myself to the top and I'm not coming down
3.
Cherry blossom, cherry lips Love the way you move your hips Let's go to the party now And see who's gonna take a bow 'Cause I'm the life of the party You act like you're such a smartie But I'm the life of the party And you know that very well Lookin' at my fingernails Sendin' letters in the mail Wear the dress I bought on sale Hope I don't end up in jail!

Jackpot 02:27
You were walkin' down the street, Didn't have a lot of money Saw a sign that said "you can win the jackpot for free" Decided to go that way, You were a little afraid That night you couldn't think straight, think straight, think straight That morning you wake up, Put on your make-up Go to the contest, contest, contest place You hit the jackpot, jackpot, jackpot Jackpot, jackpot, jackpot Jackpot, jackpot, jackpot You hit the jackpot You found success in your life, You acted extremely bright Solving crimes at night, crimes at night, crimes at night You're absolutely famous, No reason to be shameless Everybody loved you, loved you, loved you-ou

Here & There 02:25
The world changes, here and there But I don't change one bit, No I don't change one bit Rearranges, here and there But I don't change one bit No I don't change one bit Everything can change But I'm gonna stay the same No matter how much fame I'm gonna stay the same Tellin' me, I can't be Fi But I don't change one bit No I don't change one bit They don't see I'm bein' me 'Cause I don't change one bit No, I won't change one bit 'Round the world, I see the sights But I don't change one bit No I don't change one bit Things are different in the night But I don't change one bit, No I don't change one bit

I'm in the life, of an American girl I'm in the life, of a treacherous world Oh if I, oh if I, oh if I, I, I Oh if I, oh if I, oh if I, I, I If I, knew you wanted to be mine And if I, knew that time would fly by Oh if I, oh if I, oh if I, I, I Oh if I, oh if I, oh if I, I, I Sometimes, I come across dangers, But they don't stop me, because I know I can get past anything Sometimes, I come across dangers, But they don't stop me, because I know I can get past anything I believe, I can accomplish my dream I believe, I can help out my team In the end, I will be riding my wave And in the end, they'll realize that I'm brave
7.
Everybody always tells me, that I can't be who I am Everybody always tells me, that I can't be who I want to be But I can, yes I can I will do anything that I need to, yeah 'Cause I can, yes I can I will do anything that I need to, yeah Everybody tries to tell me, who I really am Everybody tries to tell me, how I can't react They don't get to choose, they don't get to choose No one gets to say, what I want to do They don't get to choose, they don't get to choose No one gets to say, what I want to do Nobody gets to tell me, that I cannot be me Nobody gets to tell me, that I cannot be free

I've got a story to tell It's told very well It's about my life Although I don't really have a story This is just about me I'm not a girl writing a song But there's a song writing me I can be anything I desire I'm gonna go fly higher I'll always follow my heart Begin from the very start Although I don't really have a story This is just about me I'm not a girl writing a song But there's a song writing me I do what I believe I've got no clue where I'll be going But my strength is always growing I know it'll always seem That I'll never reach my dream
9.
I don't like the way you Act to me You react to me You come back to me I don't like to feel Bossed around Get tossed around Feel lost around Let me tell you something girl... I can't take you any longer I can't get any stronger Somebody's just, gonna have to leave Either you or me I don't like the way you Talk to me When you walk to me When you mockin' me I don't like the way you Take up my space In every place Mostly my face I need you out of my life I need you out of my sight I need you out of my mind, My mind, my mind

Blue skies, water lilies Blue skies, in the morning time Blue skies, water lilies Sunshine, in the morning time When you wake up You may go to a pond Yes, you may go to a pond That's in your neighborhood You may see ducklings And you may see frogs See the bouncing frogs On the bouncing water lilies Some ducklings are mean But the ones in your neighborhood Are trained to be nice Yeah, trained to be nice Crocodiles and sharks, are all cleared out Because the sharks, would come out To eat the person But they just keep swimming, In the pond...
11.
Pink curls in my hair I don't think I'd care About anything but you I need something Any fun thing Is better to do with you Trees will need Something to do And yes indeed You know it's true For you, for you Better than ever Never better I will love you Always and forever Better than ever Never better Why would it, Not be better, for me? Saw monkeys, They really don't like cheese But they like bananas People at night When the moon is bright They wear their pajamas
