This is a story about control, my controlControl of what I say, control of what I doAnd this time I'm gonna do it my wayI hope you enjoy this as much as I doAre we ready? I am? Cause it's all about controlAnd I've got lots of itWhen I was 17, I did what people told meDid what my father said, and let my mother mold meBut that was long agoChorus:I'm in control, never gonna stopControl, to get what I wantControl, I got to have a lotControl, now I'm all grown upFirst time I fell in loveI didn't know what hit meSo young and so naiveI thought it would be easyBut now I know I've go to take...Repeat ChorusThat's right, I'm on my own,I'll call my own shots, thank youGot my own mindI wanna make my own decisionsWhen it has to do with my life, my lifeI wanna be the one in controlSo let me take you by the handAnd lead you on this danceCause what I've got is because I took a chanceI don't wanna rule the worldJust wanna run my lifeSo make your life a little easierWhen you get the chance just take...Repeat ChorusFree at last, out here on my ownNow control thisThat's right, career movesI do what's right for meAnd me wants to grooveIs that ok?First time I fell in loveI didn't know what hit meSo young and so naiveI thought it would be easyBut now I know I've go to take...Hop to itI'm in control (and I love it, that's right)Control, now I've got a lotControl, now I'm all grown upI'm in control, I'm in control
