## Letra

**[Verso 1]**

They couldn't believe I did it, but I was so committed

My life was so restricted for you (For you)

I just dove inside it blind, couldn't see what swam inside

Thought that'd be romantic for you

**[Verso 2]**

Exchanged my vows and said it all, on the ledge prepared to fall

Even screaming, damn it, for you (Remember?)

My friends said you would play me, but I just said they're crazy

While I was crying frantic, was it true?

**[Coro]**

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)

**[Post-Coro]**

It's time for me to move along (Goodbye)

It's time for me to get it on (Okay)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright)

It's time for me (Britney, let's go)

**[Verso 3]**

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?) (You think?)

**[Verso 4]**

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?

**[Coro]**

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 (Ah, c'mon) (Goodbye)

**[Post-Coro]**

It's time for me to move along (Goodbye) (C'mon)

It's time for me to get it on (Okay)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright) (C'mon)

It's time for me (Britney, let's go)

It's time for me to move along (Goodbye) (C'mon)

It's time for me to get it on (Okay) (C'mon)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright)

It's time for me (Britney, let's go) (Ah, c'mon)

**[Bridge]**

And don't you worry about our angels

All the magazines trying to intervene, saying things in the gossip section

They'll get good guidance and be trained well

Don't worry, I'll keep our little secret, but I ask this question

**[Coro]**

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)

**[Post-Coro]**

It's time for me to move along (Goodbye)

It's time for me to get it on (Okay)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright)

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 (Okay)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright)

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 (Okay)

I'm tired of singing sad songs (Alright)

It's time for me (Britney, let's go)

Yeah, ah, c'mon
