Fearless
Erika Henningsen Original Broadway Cast of Mean Girls Lyrics

Wait, who is my boss
With Regina gone, I'm free from her rule and can take control of my own life.

Now that Regina is gone
Regina's absence is a chance for us to be truly free.

I'll wear what I want
I don't need anyone else to tell me what to wear.

Which is what I have on
I don't need to impress anyone to feel good about myself.

And a vest
I can wear whatever I want, even if it's not what's considered cool.

That's how it feels
Being confident and unafraid is an amazing feeling.

To be free, free
I feel truly free and unencumbered by past expectations.

I thought you would cave
I thought you would give in to Regina's tyranny.

But you stood up to her
You were brave and stood up for yourself against Regina.

You were strong, you were brave
You are mighty and courageous in the face of adversity.

No, you knew what you were
You've always known who you are as a person.

You were fetch
You were amazing, cool, and everything we all aspire to be.

So fetch, and we're free
We can be amazing an unafraid just like you.

You were so fearless woah-oh
You were completely unafraid and got through it like a champ.

You didn't cry or hide or throw up
You refused to bow down to her, and came away unscathed.

No emotional trauma
You're no worse for wear for standing up to Regina.

Just fearless Woah-oh
You handled the situation with nerve and grace.

Well, some people need to grow up
Some individuals never learn to be adults and need to sort themselves out.

So go cry to mama
If you can't handle life, go cry to your mommy.

From now on I'mma be
I'm going to be awesome and live my life to the fullest from here on out.

A girl's got to do
Sometimes you just need to take a stand and be fearless.

What a girl's got to do
Whatever it takes to be yourself and live your truth.

I did it for me, sure
I stood up to Regina not just for selfish reasons, but for my own sake as well.

But really for you
I did it for you, too, so you can see that standing up for yourself is possible.

So that you can live fearlessly too
I want you to be brave and fearless, just like me.

Imagine fearless woah-oh
Think about how incredible it would be to be bold and unafraid.

Imagine stronger, better bolder
Imagine being even stronger and better than you are now.

And fearless woah-oh
Imagine how freeing it would be to never let fear hold you back.

Brush that dirt off your shoulder
Don't let anyone else's opinions or negativity weigh you down.

Imagine just dancing like no one was there
Imagine being able to just let go and enjoy yourself without caring what anyone else thinks.

Everyone staring, but you do not care
Let everyone in the world judge you - it won't bother you because you're unafraid.

Not hunching your shoulders to make yourself small
Stand tall and proud of who you are, never shrinking to make someone else more comfortable.

To walk right down The middle of the hall Not small Not small Once more
Walk tall through life, always unafraid and unshrinking.

We are fearless
We are strong, we are bold, we are unafraid.

Regina, I'm sorry this had to happen
I'm sorry that it had to be this way for you, but I'm glad I stood up to you.

It's fine for you New hair, new skirt It's fine
You may try to move on with new things, but it doesn't mean you're done with this scenario.

'Till someone gets hurt (ahhh)
Until we stop hurting each other in mean-spirited ways, we won't be able to move on from this.
