  • Express

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2010

    It’s a cold and crazy world that’s raging outside
    Well, baby, me and all my girls are bringing on the fire
    Show a little leg, got to shimmy your chest
    It’s a life, it’s a style, it’s a need, it’s burlesque

    E-X-P-R-E-S-S
    Love, sex, ladies, no regrets
    E-X-P-R-E-S-S
    Love, sex, ladies, no regrets

    Been holding back for quite some time
    And finally the moment’s right
    I love to make the people stare
    They know I got that certain savoir-faire

    Fasten up, can you imagine what would happen
    If I let you close enough to touch?
    Step into the fantasy, you’ll never wanna leave
    Baby, that’s guaranteed (why?)

    It’s a passion and emotion
    It’s a fashion, burlesque
    It’ll move you, going through you
    So do what I do, burlesque

    All ladies confident, flaunt it
    Boys, throw it up if you want it
    Can you feel me? Can you feel it?
    It’s burlesque
    Burlesque
    Burlesque

    I tease ’em ’til they’re on the edge
    They scream and moan for more and more they beg, ah
    I know it’s me they come to see
    My pleasure brings them to their knees

    Fasten up, can you imagine what would happen
    If I let you close enough to touch?
    Step into the fantasy, you’ll never wanna leave
    Baby, that’s guaranteed (why?)

    It’s a passion and emotion
    It’s a fashion, burlesque
    It’ll move you, going through you
    Do what I do, burlesque

    All ladies confident, flaunt it
    Boys, throw it up if you want it
    Can you feel me? Can you feel it?
    It’s burlesque
    Burlesque
    Burlesque

    Burlesque
    Burlesque
    Burlesque
    Burlesque

    It’s a passion and emotion
    It’s a fashion, burlesque
    It’ll move you, going through you
    Do what I do, burlesque

    All ladies confident, flaunt it
    Boys, throw it up if you want it
    Can you feel m? Can you feel it?
    It’s burlesque
    Burlesque
    Burlesque

    Burlesque
    Burlesque

    Burlesque
    Burlesque

  • What a Girl Wants

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 1999

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Yeah, c’mon
    Ooh, oh yeah, oh yeah

    I wanna thank you for giving me time to breathe
    Like a rock, you waited so patiently
    While I got it together, oh
    While I figured it out (yeah-yeah)
    I only looked but I never touched
    ‘Cause in my heart was a picture of us
    Holdin’ hands, makin’ plans
    And it’s lucky for me you understand

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever makes me happy sets you free
    And I’m thanking you for knowing exactly
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever keeps me in your arms
    And I’m thanking you for giving it to me

    What I want, is what you got
    And what you got, is what I want

    There was a time I was blind, I was so confused (yeah-yeah)
    Run away just to hide it all from you
    But baby, you knew me better than I knew myself
    They say if you love something, let it go
    If it comes back it’s yours
    That’s how you know
    It’s for keeps, yeah, it’s for sure
    And you’re ready and willin’ to give me more than

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever makes me happy sets you free
    And I’m thanking you for knowing exactly
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever keeps me in your arms
    And I’m thanking you for giving it to me, yeah

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Somebody sensitive, courageous, sexy, cool, like you
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs, oh yeah

    What a girl wants (you’re so right)
    What a girl needs (you’re so right)
    You let a girl know how much you
    Care about her, I swear
    You’re the one who always knew
    You knew, you knew, you knew, you knew

    Ooh, I’m thanking you for being there for me
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever keeps me in your arms
    Whatever keeps me in your arms, that’s what I need

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever makes me happy sets you free
    And I’m thanking you for knowing exactly
    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever keeps me in your arms
    And I’m thanking you for giving it

    What a girl wants, what a girl needs
    Whatever makes me happy sets you free
    And I’m thanking you for giving it to me

    Oh baby, oh darling
    Thank you, thank you for giving me what I what
    And what I need
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
    I turn around there
    Whenever you’re not there
    Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

  • Fighter

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2002

    After all you put me through
    You’d think I’d despise you
    But in the end, I wanna thank you
    ‘Cause you made me that much stronger

    Well, I thought I knew you
    Thinkin’ that you were true
    Guess I, I couldn’t trust, called your bluff
    Time is up ’cause I’ve had enough

    You were there by my side
    Always down for the ride
    But your joyride just came down in flames
    ‘Cause your greed sold me out in shame, mhm

    After all of the stealing and cheating
    You probably think that I hold resentment for you
    But uh-uh, oh no, you’re wrong
    ‘Cause if it wasn’t for all that you tried to do
    I wouldn’t know just how capable
    I am to pull through
    So I wanna say thank you, ’cause it

    Makes me that much stronger
    Makes me work a little bit harder
    Makes me that much wiser
    So thanks for making me a fighter
    Made me learn a little bit faster
    Made my skin a little bit thicker
    Makes me that much smarter
    So thanks for making me a fighter

    Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
    Oh, yeah, yeah, ohh

    Never saw it coming
    All of your backstabbing
    And just so you could cash in on a good thing
    Before I realized your game

    I heard you’re goin’ ’round
    Playin’ the victim now
    But don’t even begin feeling I’m the one to blame
    ‘Cause you dug your own grave

    After all of the fights and the lies
    Guess you’re wanting to hold me
    But that won’t work anymore (no more, a-ha, it’s over)
    ‘Cause if it wasn’t for all of your torture
    I wouldn’t know how to be this way now and never back down
    So I wanna say thank you, ’cause it

    Makes me that much stronger
    Makes me work a little bit harder
    It makes me that much wiser
    So thanks for making me a fighter
    Made me learn a little bit faster
    Made my skin a little bit thicker
    Makes me that much smarter
    So thanks for making me a fighter

    How could this man I thought I knew
    Turn out to be unjust, so cruel?
    Could only see the good in you
    Pretended not to see the truth
    You tried to hide your lies, disguise yourself
    Through living in denial
    But in the end you’ll see, you won’t stop me

    I am a fighter and I (I’m a fighter)
    I ain’t gon’ stop (I ain’t gonna stop)
    There is no turning back
    I’ve had enough

    Makes me that much stronger
    Makes me work a little bit harder (ooh, yeah)
    It makes me that much wiser (ooh, yeah)
    So thanks for making me a fighter
    Made me learn a little bit faster (yeah)
    Made my skin a little bit thicker (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Makes me that much smarter (yeah)
    So thanks for making me a fighter (fighter)

    You thought I would forget but I, I remembered (ooh-ooh-ooh)
    ‘Cause I remembered (ooh-ooh-ooh)
    I remembered
    You thought I would forget (ooh-ooh)
    I remembered (ooh-ooh)
    ‘Cause I remembered (ooh)
    I remembered

    Makes me that much stronger (ooh-ooh)
    Makes me work a little bit harder (ooh-ooh)
    It makes me that much wiser
    So thanks for making me a fighter
    Made me learn a little bit faster
    Made my skin a little bit thicker
    Makes me that much smarter
    So thanks for making me a fighter

  • Just a Fool

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2012

    Another shot of whiskey please bartender
    Keep it coming til I don’t remember at all
    How bad it hurts when you’re gone (na, na, na)
    Turn the music up a little bit louder
    Just gotta get past the midnight hour (uh huh)
    Maybe tomorrow it won’t be this hard

    Who am I kidding?
    I know what I’m missing

    I, I had my heart set on you
    But nothing else hurts like you do
    Who knew that love was so cruel? Yeah, yeah, yeah
    And I, waited and waited so long
    For someone who’ll never come home
    It’s my fault to think you’ll be true, yeah, yeah
    I’m just a fool, yeah

    I say that I don’t care and walk away, whatever
    And I tell myself we were bad together, uh-huh
    But that’s just me trying to move on without you

    But who am I kidding?
    I know what I’m missing

    I, I had my heart set on you
    But nothing else hurts like you do
    Who knew that love was so cruel? Yeah, yeah, yeah
    And I, waited and waited so long
    For someone who’ll never come home
    It’s my fault to think you’ll be true, yeah, yeah

    I’m just a fool for holding on to something that’s
    Never ever gonna come back
    I can’t accept that it’s lost
    I should’ve let it go, held my tongue
    Kept my big mouth shut
    ‘Cause now everything is just wrong, wrong, wrong
    I’m just a fool
    A fool for you
    I’m just a fool

    I, I had my heart set on you
    But nothing else hurts like you do (Uh)
    Who knew that love was so cruel? Yeah, yeah, yeah
    And I, waited and waited so long
    For someone who never comes home
    It’s my fault to think you’ll be true, yeah, yeah

    I’m just a fool
    I’m just a fool
    I’m just a fool
    It’s my fault to think you’ll be true, yeah, yeah
    Yeah
    I’m just a fool

  • Show Me How You Burlesque

    Song by Christina Aguilera


    Underneath the city lights
    There is a world few know about
    Where rules don’t apply, no
    And you can’t keep a good girl down


    She comes through the club looking for a good time
    Gonna make that, shake that, money on a dime
    Don’t need a sugar daddy, she can work it just fine
    Up on the table, she’ll be dancing all night


    Hey, hey, yeah, hey, Babydoll, just come to life
    Under the spotlight
    All the girls wanna fall in line


    We say
    He-eh-eh-hey
    Here come the ladies ’bout to give a little show
    He-eh-eh-hey
    Here go the boys, you gotta show a little more, more, more, more


    Hit it up, get it up (Won’t let you rest)
    Hit it up, get it up (This is not a test)
    Hit it up, get it up (Gotta give me your best)
    So get your ass up, show me how you burlesque
    Hit it up, get it up (Won’t let you rest)
    Hit it up, get it up (This is not a test)
    Hit it up, get it up (Gotta give me your best)
    So get your ass up, show me how you burlesque

  • Not Myself Tonight

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2010

    You know
    Tonight I’m feeling a little out of control
    Is this me?
    You wanna get crazy?
    ‘Cause I don’t give a

    I’m out of character
    I’m in rare form
    And if you really knew me
    You know it’s not the norm
    ‘Cause I’m doing things that I normally won’t do
    The old me’s gone, I feel brand new
    And if you don’t like it, fuck you

    The music’s on and I’m dancing (Hey)
    I’m normally in the corner just standing (Hey)
    I’m feeling unusual
    I don’t care ’cause this my night

    I’m not myself tonight
    Tonight I’m not the same girl, same girl
    I’m not myself tonight
    Tonight I’m not the same girl, same girl

    I’m dancing a lot
    I’m taking shots and I’m feeling fine
    I’m kissing all the boys and the girls
    Someone call the doctor ’cause I lost my mind
    ‘Cause I’m doing things that I normally won’t do
    The old me’s gone, I feel brand new
    And if you don’t like it, fuck you

    The music’s on and I’m dancing (Hey)
    I’m normally in the corner just standing
    I’m feeling unusual
    I don’t care ’cause this my night

    I’m not myself tonight
    Tonight I’m not the same girl, same girl
    I’m not myself tonight
    Tonight I’m not the same girl

  • Ain’t No Other Man

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2006

    Hey, yeah (do your thing, honey!)

    I could feel it from the start
    Couldn’t stand to be apart
    Somethin’ ’bout you caught my eye
    Somethin’ moved me deep inside
    I don’t know what you did, boy, but you had it
    And I’ve been hooked ever since

    I told my mother, my brother
    My sister and my friends
    I told the others, my lovers both past and present tense
    Every time I see you, everything starts making sense (do your thing, honey!)

    Ain’t no other man can stand up next to you
    Ain’t no other man on the planet does what you do
    You’re the kinda guy a girl finds in a blue moon
    You got soul, you got class
    You got style, you’re badass
    Ain’t no other man, it’s true (all right)
    Ain’t no other man but you

    Never thought I’d be alright (no, no, no)
    ‘Til you came and changed my life (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    What was cloudy now is clear, yeah yeah (yeah, yeah)
    You’re the light that I needed
    You got what I want boy and I want it
    So keep on giving it up

    Tell your mother, your brother
    Your sister and your friends
    And the others, your lovers
    Better not be present tense
    ‘Cause I want everyone to know
    That you are mine and no one else’s
    Oh-woah, oh

    Ain’t no other man can stand up next to you
    Ain’t no other man on the planet does what you do
    You’re the kinda guy a girl finds in a blue moon
    You got soul, you got class
    You got style, you’re badass
    Ain’t no other man, its true
    Ain’t no other man but you (break it down now!)

    Ain’t no other, ain’t, ain’t no other, other
    Ain’t no other, ain’t, ain’t no other lover
    Ain’t no other, I, I, I need no other
    Ain’t no other man but you, oh

    You are there when I’m a mess
    You talked me down from every ledge
    Give me strength, boy, you’re the best
    You’re the only one who’s ever passed every test

    Ain’t no other man can stand up next to you
    Ain’t no other man on the planet does what you do
    You’re the kinda guy a girl finds in a blue moon
    You got soul, you got class
    You got style, you’re badass
    Ain’t no other man, it’s true
    Ain’t no other man but you
    And now I’m tellin’ you, so, ain’t no other man but you

    Ain’t no other man can stand up next to you
    Ain’t no other man on the planet does what you do
    You’re the kinda guy a girl finds in a blue moon
    You got soul, you got class
    You got style, you’re badass
    Ain’t no other man, it’s true
    Ain’t no other man but you

  • The Voice Within

    Song by Christina Aguilera ‧ 2002

    Young girl, don’t cry
    I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall, ooh
    Young girl, it’s alright
    Your tears will dry, you’ll soon be free to fly, ooh

    When you’re safe inside your room, you tend to dream
    Of a place where nothing’s harder than it seems
    No one ever wants or bothers to explain
    Of the heartache, life can bring and what it means

    When there’s no one else, look inside yourself
    Like your oldest friend, just trust the voice within
    Then you’ll find the strength that will guide your way
    You’ll learn to begin to trust the voice within, oh

    Young girl, don’t hide
    You’ll never change if you just run away, ooh-whoa, yeah
    Young girl, just hold tight
    Soon you’re gonna see your brighter day, oh

    Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
    It’s so hard to stand your ground when you’re so afraid
    No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
    When you look outside, look inside to your soul

    When there’s no one else, look inside yourself
    Like your oldest friend, just trust the voice within
    Then you’ll find the strength that will guide your way
    If you will learn to begin to trust the voice within

    Oh-oh, yeah-hey, ooh-oh, yeah, oh
    Life is a journey, it can take you anywhere you choose to go
    As long as you’re learning
    You’ll find all you’ll ever need to know (be strong)
    Break it (hold on), you’ll make it (be strong)
    Just don’t forsake it because (hold on)
    (No one can tell you what you can’t do)
    No one can stop you, you know that I’m talking to you

    When there’s no one else, look inside yourself
    Like your oldest friend, just trust the voice within
    Then you’ll find the strength that will guide your way
    You’ll learn to begin to trust the voice within, ooh

    Ooh, yeah, young girl, don’t cry
    I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall
    Yeah-aah, yeah (listen)
    Oh yeah (listen)
