I'm so happy she had a part in writing my fav song on the album. And she's listed first. :love: :love: :love:

[GenieStroke]

I just think of that song as nothing more than a dance breakdown song to either work out to or rehearse to.

It's one of her best song in years. :love:

[GenieStroke]

Well I wouldnt say that. Her vocals are completely distorted and u can't even hear what she's saying. I wouldn't put it before GM, POM, BTI or Womanizer.

OMG are you serious? It ****s on every single one of those songs. The production is out of this world.

[CarnivalKing]

I think Mannequin is incredibly innovative. It's one of the best songs on Circus.

[ghettoguy]

I wanna know what the hell she's talking about.

[babylightskin22]

I don't really like mannequin. http://www.bwboard.net/Smileys/smil/nocheer.gif

[neonbaroque]

really? I love that song.

[Elroy Jetson]

It's my #1 workout song.

[Mellybeans0919]

I haven't gotten into Mannequin either....good for her with co-writing though.

[aleronihead]

I wanna know what the hell she's talking about.

From what I can make of the lyrics, I think it's about trying to control yourself and not show any emotion.

"You can scream your lungs out"
"I don't care I don't care"
"My face like a mannequin"

Of course, if we ever get the real lyrics, I could be wrong.

[GenieStroke]

It's just so filler.

And I thought she sings "love is like a mannequin"

[Black Velvet]

one of my faves on the album.

I think you're right. :)

[Britina]

I wasn't too crazy about this song at first, but I love it now! It's CRAZY! :D

[EuroBoy]

mannequin is hot!its my fav also and I think its great that she co wrote!!!i can dance to it everyday!! " I DONT CARE"

[moon spillnn]

anyone have the lyrics?

[Less Perfect]

Mannequin is one of the best songs she's ever recorded. The chorus is pretty solid, but the verse lyrics are ridiculously random "I run this, I get things, everything I want" and "Backless dresses, exes."

[PieceOfBrit]

anyone have the lyrics?

My ears hear:

Always talking around this
He wants me
I get things, everything; I want it
My own way
Your time, goldmines, blue skies
On my backless dresses; exes.

I can't help myself, I'm just doing what I do
Help myself to anything that I want to, thank you
I like it and I do what like, and then you do what I like and you like it.

If you wanna just scream (scream your lungs out)
If you wanna just cry (cry your eyes out)
I'ma do my thing (that's what I'm about)
You can cry your eyes out of your head.

Baby baby, I don't care.... you can cry again
My face like a Mannequin
Mannequin, yeah I did it again, and
You can cry again, my face like a mannequin.

You told me you're lonely
Can't hear you, can't feel you
I'm frozen, I'm posing
There's no way you move me
Watch me, dress me
Can't impress me
I'm not changing; adjust.

From there the lyrics are the bold parts of the song.

[Samanthasrai]

I absolutely love Mannequin, I think it is my fav even. Love it, and I think the lyrics are actually quite amazing. They seem to me to actually be kinda 'deep' I guess.

[heavenwaits_22]

This is a great song. I laugh at the people who thought she wouldn't write anything with substance.

[creamforbritney]

Each time I hear it I love it more and more. It's SO good. It should have been called "I Don't Give a ****."
