Powerless (Say What You Want) by Nelly Furtado

Paint my face in (1)________ magazines
Make it look whiter (2)________ it seems
Paint me over with (3)________ dreams
Shove away my ethnicity
Burn every (4)____________ that I
May (5)________ a flame inside to fight
And say just what is on my mind
Without (6)__________________ your might
'Cuz this life
Is too short
To live it just
For you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you (7)__________ do?
So say what you want

Say what you want

I saw her face outside today
Weatherworn, (8)______________ all the rage
They took her (9)______________ and her gaze
And made a poster
Now it’s moccasins we sport
We (10)________ the culture and contort
Perhaps only to (11)______________ what we are hiding
'Cuz this life
Is too short
To live it just
For you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do?
But say (12)________ you want

Say (13)________ you want
Say, say...

Hey you, the one, the one outside
Are you gonna get in, get in?
Hey you, the one that don’t fit in
How ya, how ya gonna get in?
Hey you, the one outside
Are you (14)________ gonna get in (15)________ your
Broken teeth, broken jaw, broken mojo?
Yeah (16)________ life
Is too (17)__________ to (18)________ it just for you
But when you (19)________ so powerless
What are you gonna do?
'Cuz (20)________ life
Is too short
To live it just
For you
But (21)________ you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do?
'Cuz this life
Is too short
To live it just
For you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you (22)__________ do?
Say (23)________ you want
Say what you want
Say what you want
Say what you want
Say what you want
Say what you want
Say, say, say, say...
Life is too short
Just for you
Feel powerless
Gonna do
