Yesterday, Christina Aguilera revealed the official cover of her soon-to-be-released track ‘Not Myself Tonight’ and promised a surprise for her fans every day this week. The song, which was written and produced by Ester Dean and Polow Da don, will be the first single to be lifted off her upcoming ‘Bionic’ LP which hits stores later this year. So what’s today’s surprise? Check it out below:
You know tonight
I am feeling a little out control
is this me

I’m out of character
I’m in rare form
and If you really knew me
you’d know its not the normB SECTION:
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 youThe music’s on and I’m dancing
I’m normally in the corner just standing
I’m feeling unusual
I don’t care cause this is my nightHOOK:
I’m not myself tonight
tonight I’m not the same girl same girlYah, that feels good
I needed that

that’s right
come on
give it to me now, don’t stop
I’m not myself tonight
tonight I’m not the same girl same girl2ND VERSE:
I’m dancing alot and I’m taking shots I’m feeling fine
I’m kissing all the boys and the girls
someone call the doctor cause I lost my mindB SECTION:
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 youThe music’s on and I’m dancing
I’m normally in the corner just standing
I’m feeling unusual
I don’t care cause this is my nightHOOK:

BRIDGE:
In the morning
when I wake Up
I’ll go back to the girl I used to be
but baby not tonightHOOK:
I’m not myself tonight
tonight I’m not the same girl same girl {Source}
While the lyrics are in no way monumental or life-changing, the song sounds like it will be geared toward the clubs. If it is anything similar to any of Polow’s recent work (see: Keri Hilson’s ‘Turnin Me On’), expect it to be an Urban up-tempo laced with thumping beats (hopefully without Aguilera’s added screeching). Let’s see what Xtina has in store for us tomorrow…
