Britney Spears - Why Should I Be Sad Lyrics






They couldn't believe I did it
But I was so committed
My life was so restricted for you
I just dove inside it blind
Couldn't see what swam inside
Thought that'd be romantic for you

Exchanged my vows
And said it all
Woman, let's prepare to fall
Even, screaming did it for you
(Remember?)

My friends said you would play me
But I just said they're crazy
While I was crying, praying
Was it true?

Why should I be sad?
Heaven knows
From the stupid freaking things that you do
(Stupid freaking things)
Why should I get mad? Feel sad?
Who knows?
Just take it all
As a sign that we're through
Goodbye

It's time for me to move along
(Goodbye)
It's time for me to get it on
(OK)
I'm tired of singing sad songs
(All right)
It's time for me
(Britney, let's go)

I sent you to Vegas
With a pocket full of paper
And with no ultimatums on you
I thought what could separate us
But it just seemed that Vegas
Only brought the player outta you
(Hey baby, what's your name?)

Lavish homes and fancy cars
Even got the drop Ferrari
Filled up our garage for you
Made your choice with all the teams
People and US Magazines
Tell me who'd I do that for, who?

Why should I be sad?
Heaven knows
From the stupid freaking things that you do
(Stupid freaking things)
Why should I get mad? Feel sad?
Who knows?
Just take it all
As a sign that we're through
Goodbye

It's time for me to move along
(Goodbye)
It's time for me to get it on
(OK)
I'm tired of singing sad songs
(All right)
It's time for me
(Britney, let's go)

It's time for me to move along
(Goodbye)
It's time for me to get it on
(OK)
I'm tired of singing sad songs
(All right)
It's time for me
(Britney, let's go)

And don't you worry
About our angels
(All the magazines trying to intervene
Seeing things in the gossip section)
There'll get good guidance
And be trained well
Don't worry I'll keep a little secret
When I ask this question

Why should I be sad?
Heaven knows
From the stupid freaking things that you do
(Stupid freaking things)
Why should I get mad? Feel sad?
Who knows?
Just take it all
As a sign that we're through
Goodbye

It's time for me to move along
(Goodbye)
It's time for me to get it on
(OK)
I'm tired of singing sad songs
(All right)
It's time for me
(Britney, let's go)

It's time for me to move along
(Goodbye)
It's time for me to get it on
(OK)
I'm tired of singing sad songs
(All right)
It's time for me
(Britney, let's go)

Yeah
Baby, come on

    Whoever listening to this song in 2019 like this comment ✨💛

  26. S.... B....

    I think she sounds really sad in this song, I don’t know... I just get that vibe. Ironic though because of the title. Still love Britney Spears always ❤️

  27. e.... ....

    THIS SONG IS ABOUT KEVIN

  28. B.... S....

    The most personal song on "Blackout“ and the only one next to "Piece of Me". The lyrics are everything. Imagine if she would’ve barred her soul like she intended to do on "Original Doll“.

    B.... S....

    Why didn't Original Doll ever come out? I was always confused it never happened

    B.... S....

    @MissIToldYou Sooo Her former record label, Jive, didn't approve of the subject matter. (Have a listen to a track called; "Rebellion", as well as the original "Mona Lisa", and you'll see why Jive didn't approve of the tracks on #OriginalDoll)

    B.... S....

    Lesley Esau I heard this fan was at the meet and greet for her Vegas residency a couple years ago and asked about the original doll album they said she got scared freaked out and started acting weird then security kicked him out i guess she’s still not allowed to talk about it considering the fact that Her label still acts as if and says it never existed tbh i feel like if she never played Mona Lisa on the radio we would know nothing of the album

  29. J.... A....

    No la habia escuchado, y me encanto!! 🥰🤩

  30. g.... b....

    damn this a good song, everybody say thank you britney and pharrell

  31. S.... F....

    This song cures my depression

  32. F.... A....

    Dancing and crying at the same time.

  33. I.... ....

    very moving, kinda reminds me of kate bush's delius

  34. S.... I....

    Pharrell are you there?

  35. R.... w....

    Brit brit 💕 👏🙌 bow down bitches 2019

  36. S.... F....

    2019 anyone???

  37. A.... N....

    "My friends said you would play me"

  38. w.... g....

    2019❤

  39. S.... F....

    2019 anyone???

  40. P.... S....

    Essa música é linda

  41. P.... V....

    best song of blackout

    P.... V....

    Pamella Araújo hands down!

  42. i.... r....

    a Pharrell/Neptunes beat is like getting an alley oop. Ten times out of ten it's a slam dunk no matter who gets it

  43. B.... ....

    Blackout is Britney's best album.

  44. S.... M....

    2018🖤

  45. P.... S....

    Amoooooo

  46. C.... H....

    2018its still hard as fuck . THIS SONG HELPED ME THROUGH MY BREAKUPS

  47. J.... L....

    The besttttt

  48. S.... J....

    Another hidden gem

    S.... J....

    the best gems are often hidden

    S.... J....

    Shit... I'm just hearing this.

  49. M.... D....

    Essa música é maravilhosa 🙌🏼

  50. a.... ....

    xxxtentaction is over party!!!! 🎈 🎈 🎈

    a.... ....

    alizadeh dude fuck off

  51. S.... M....

    Ayyyeeee love britney . This is one of the best albums of all time.

  52. J.... B....

    Should've been a single.

    J.... B....

    i agree with you on this one

    J.... B....

    Jessica Bourdage it has an R&B soul hip hop. Dance pop feel to it. And it would of been perfect on in the zone also. This album and Britney is completely different from 2003 in the zone but this song specifically brings back the in the zone Britney can anybody agree with me. Her voice sounds like it did in 2003.

  53. t.... i....

    "tell me, who'd i do that for? who?" that one hits so hard

  54. Q.... D....

    Neptunes all day!! Miss this sound!

  55. G.... B....

    I can relate to this song hard a’f

  56. S.... N....

    Great song

  57. A.... ....

    If this was a music video the music video would be about Britney at a dark grave yard

  58. S.... W....

    Is this about Kevin..?

    S.... W....

    probably

    S.... W....

    Tu que Crees pendeja

    S.... W....

    Heaven On Earth was about Kevin

    S.... W....

    Yes it about him

  59. D.... E....

    Bitch...this is my favorite Britney Spears song of all time and you honestly can't tell me Blackout isn't her best album. Like foh

    D.... E....

    Yes this album was the best

  60. H.... T....

    This is song upbeat to dance to, but sad at the same time

  61. T.... W....

    Why should be I sad, Why should I get back😉

  62. r.... ....

    Best Britney Album hands down!

  63. J.... C....
