Janet Jackson - Control Lyrics

Janet Jackson - Control Video

This is a story about control,

My control

Control of what I say, control of what I do

And this time I'm gonna do it my way

 

I hope you enjoy this as much as I do

Are we ready? I am.

'Cause it's all about control

And I've got lots of it

 

When I was seventeen, I did what people told me

Did what my father said, and let my mother mold me

But that was long ago

 

I'm in control, never gonna stop

Control to get what I want

Control I got to have a lot

Control now I'm all grown up

 

First time I fell in love

I didn't know what hit me

So young and so naive

I thought it would be easy

But now I know I've got to take...

 

Control I got to have a lot

Control to get what I want

Control never gonna stop

Control now I'm all grown up

 

That's right, I'm on my own,

I'll call my own shots, thank you

 

Got my own mind

I wanna make my own decisions

When it has to do with my life, my life

I wanna be the one in control

 

So let me take you by the hand

And lead you on this dance (control)

'Cause what I've got is because I took a chance

I don't wanna rule the world

Just wanna run my life

So make your life a little easier

When you get the chance just take...

 

Control I got to have a lot

Control to get what I want

Control never gonna stop

Control now I'm all grown up

 

Free at last, out here on my own

Now control this

That's right, career moves

I do what's right for me

And me wants to groove

Is that okay?

 

Got my own mind

I wanna make my own decisions

When it has to do with my life

I wanna be the one in control

 

Hop to it

I'm in control (and I love it, that's right)

Control now I've got a lot

Control now I'm all grown up

 

I'm in control

I'm in control

I'm in control

Don't make me lose it
