Objection (Tango) Words and Music by: Shakira
It's not her fault that she's so irresistible But all the damage she's caused isn't fixable Every twenty seconds you repeat her name But when it comes to me you don't care If I'm alive or dead So objection I don't wanna be the exception To get a bit of your attention I love you for free and I'm not your mother But you don't even bother Objection I'm tired of this triangle Got dizzy dancing tango I'm falling apart in your hands again No way I've got to get away Next to her cheap silicon I look minimal That's why in front of your eyes I'm invisible But you gotta know small things also count You better put your feet on the ground And see what it's about Objection I don't wanna be the exception To get a bit of your attention I love you for free and I'm not your mother But you don't even bother Objection I'm tired of this triangle Got dizzy dancing tango I'm falling apart in your hands again No way I've got to get away I wish there was a chance for you and me I wish you couldn't find a place to be Away from here This is pathetic and sardonic It's sadistic and psychotic Tango is not for three Was never meant to be But you can try it Rehearse it Or train like a horse But don't you count on me Don't you count on me boy Objection I don't wanna be the exception To get a bit of your attention I love you for free and I'm not your mother And you don't even bother Objection I'm tired of this triangle Got dizzy dancing tango I'm falling apart in your hands again No way I've got to get away
Underneath Your Clothes Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Lester Mendez
You're a song Written by the hands of god Don't get me wrong cause This might sound to you a bit odd But you own the place Where all my thoughts go hiding And right under your clothes Is where I find them Underneath Your Clothes There's an endless story There's the man I chose There's my territory And all the things I deserve For being such a good girl honey Because of you I forgot the smart ways to lie Because of you I'm running out of reasons to cry When the friends are gone When the party's over We will still belong to each other Underneath Your Clothes There's an endless story There's the man I chose There's my territory And all the things I deserve For being such a good girl honey I love you more than all that's on the planet Movin' talkin' walkin' breathing You know it's true Oh baby it's so funny You almost don't believe it As every voice is hanging from the silence Lamps are hanging from the celing Like a lady to her good manners I'm tied up to this feeling Underneath Your Clothes There's an endless story There's the man I chose There's my territory And all the things I deserve For being such a good girl honey
Whenever, Wherever Words by: Shakira and Gloria M. Estefan Music by: Shakira and Tim Mitchell
Lucky you were born that far away so We could both make fun of distance Lucky that I love a foreign land for The lucky fact of your existence Baby I would climb the Andes solely To count the freckles on your body Never could imagine there were only Ten million ways to love somebody Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le Can't you see I'm at your feet Whenever, wherever We're meant to be together I'll be there and you'll be near And that's the deal my dear Thereover, hereunder You'll never have to wonder We can always play by ear But that's the deal my dear Lucky that my lips not only mumble They spill kisses like a fountain Lucky that my breasts are small and humble So you don't confuse them with mountains Lucky I have strong legs like my mother To run for cover when I need it And these two eyes that for no other The day you leave will cry a river Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le At your feet I'm at your feet Whenever, wherever We're meant to be together I'll be there and you'll be near And that's the deal my dear Thereover, hereunder You'll never have to wonder We can always play by ear And that's the deal my dear Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le Think out loud Say it again Le do le le le le Tell me one more time That you'll live Lost in my eyes. Whenever, wherever We're meant to be together I'll be there and you'll be near And that's the deal my dear Thereover, hereunder You've got me head over heals There's nothing left to fear If you really feel the way I feel
Rules Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Lester Mendez
You have to swear You've got love to love me aah aah That will last forever aah aah We must have a story Aah aah With a happy ending So don't ever go away And never put aside The things I'm gonna say Cause these are the rules for us Use your eyes Only to look at me Use your mouth Only to kiss my lips We are branches of the same old tree You can laugh Only if you laugh with me You can cry Only if you cry for me Don't forget that you're condemned to me Oh can't you see You always were You'll always be You used to say I should see a doctor Aah aah Who would keep me busy Aah aah Cause a jealous woman Never makes it easy Ahh, ahh And you know I'll do for us Whatever seems right But it may take awhile Before I change the rules Use your eyes Only to look at me Use your mouth Only to kiss my lips We are branches of the same old tree You can laugh Only if you laugh with me You can cry Only if you cry for me Don't forget that you're condemned to me Oh can't you see You always were You'll always be
The One Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Glen Ballard
So I find a reason to shave my legs Each single morning So I count on someone Friday nights to take me dancing And then to church on Sundays To plant more dreams And someday think of kids Or maybe just to save a little money You're the one I need The way back home is always long But if you're close to me I'm holding on You're the one I need My real life has just begun Cause there's nothing like Your smile made of sun In a world full of strangers You're the one I know So I learn to cook And finally lose my kitchen phobia So I've got the arms to cuddle in When there's a ghost or a muse That brings insomnia To buy more thongs And write more happy songs It always takes a little help from someone You're the one I need The way back home is always long But if you're close to me I'm holding on You're the one I need My real life has just begun Cause there's nothing like Your smile made of sun You're the one I need You're the one I need With you my real life has just begun You're the one I need Nothing like your smile made of sun Nothing like your love Nothing like your love Nothing like your love
Ready for the Good Times Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Lester Mendez
I don't wanna clear the cobwebs from my head Time will bring them back I bet So if you hear me say that I believe in love Don't make me feel ashamed I used to sing the saddest songs And while in the meantime roaches used to climb my Door Falling back down to the floor I used to read survival guides When my world was full of seven legged cats But here I am with eight more lives I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Ready to get it on I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Now that I'm not alone Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh You know It Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh You better not Ignore it I don't wanna look at fashion magazines While someone does my nails Sitting here watching other people live Frozen by the fear to fail Cause, everyday there's a war to fight And if I win or lose never mind As long as you're my shelter every night I used to cry against a wall But now I've got a shoulder that I can lean on Swear to me you won't be gone I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Ready to get it on I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Now that I'm not alone Instrumental
Fool By Shakira and Brendan Buckley
Tell me lies, slap me on the face, just... Improvise, do something really clever, That'll make me hate your name forever You might swear, you'd never touch a lady Well, let me say, you're not too far from Maybe Every day you find new ways to hurt me But I can't help it if I'm just a fool Always having my heart set on you `Till the time you start changing the rules I'll keep chasing the soles of your shoes ahh, fool God resigned, from hearing my old story Every night, I'm paying hell for glory I'm embarrassed but I'm much more sorry All this pain, begins to feel like Pleasure With my tears, you'd make a sea a desert Salt my wounds and I'll keep saying thank You But I can't help it if I'm just a fool Always having my heart set on you `Till the time you start changing the rules, I'll keep chasing the soles of your shoes Ahh, fool
Te Dejo Madrid Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira, Tim Mitchell and George Noriega
Si ya es hora de esconder Del mundo el dolor Bajo la piel Mбs se que estarй bien Los gatos como yo caen de pie No quiero Jugar mi suerte por ti No puedo Con V pequeсa vivir Pronto estarй de aquн Muy muy lejos Ay me voy otra vez Ahi te dejo Madrid Tus rutinas de piel Y tus ganas de huir Yo no quiero cobardes Que me hagan sufrir Mejor le digo adiуs A tu boca de aniz Si ya es hora de limpiar Las manchas de miel Sobre el mantel Yo nunca supe actuar Y mis labios se ven Muertos de sed No quiero dejarlo todo a lazar Entiendo Que he comenzado a estorbar Pronto estarй de ti Muy muy lejos Ay me voy otra vez Ahi te dejo Madrid Tus rutinas de piel Y tus ganas de huir Yo no quiero cobardes Que me hagan sufrir Mejor le digo adiуs A tu boca de aniz
Poem to a Horse Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Luis F. Ochoa
You're too far to bring you close And too high to see below Just hangin' on your daily dose I know you never needed anyone But the rolling papers for your grass How can you give what you don't have You keep on aiming for the And quit before you sweat a drop Feed your empty brain With your hydroponic pot Start out playing with yourself You get more fun within your shell Nice to meet you but I gotta go my way I'll leave again `cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love with yourself If I say my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor So I won't repeat it no more I rather eat my soup with a fork Or drive a cab in New York `Cause to talk to you is harder work So what's the point of wasting all my words If it's just the same or even worse Than reading poems to a horse You keep on aiming for the And quit before you sweat a drop Feed your empty brain With your hydroponic pot I bet you'll find someone like you `Cause there's a foot for every shoe I wish you luck but I've other things to do I'll leave again `cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love with yourself If I say my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor So I won't repeat it no more
Que Me Quedes Tu Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Luis F. Ochoa
Que se arruinen los canales de noticias Con lo mucho que odio la televisiуn Que se vuelvan anticuadas las sonrisas Y se extingan todas las puestas de sol Que se supriman las doctrinas y deberes Que se terminen las pelнculas de acciуn Que se destruyan en el mundo los placeres Y que se escriba hoy una ъltima canciуn Pero que me quedes tъ y me quede tu abrazo Y el beso que inventas cada dнa Y que me quede aquн despuйs del ocaso Para siempre tu melancolнa Porque yo si que dependo de ti Y si me quedas tъ Me queda la vida Que desaparezcan todos los vecinos Y se coman las sobras de mi inocencia Que se vayan uno a uno los amigos Y acribillen mi pedazo de conciencia Que se consuman las palabras en los labios Que contaminen todo el agua del planeta O que renuncien los filбntropos y sabios Y que se muera hoy hasta el ъltimo poeta
Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Asн) English Lyrics by: Gloria M. Estefan Music by: Shakira, Pablo Flores and Javier Garza
Oh, you know I have seen A sky without sun A man with no nation Saints, captive in chains A song with no name For lack of imagination Ya he... And I have seen Darker than ebony Ya he... And now it seems, that I Without your eyes could never be My one desire, all I aspire Is in your eyes forever to live Traveled all over; the seven oceans There is nothing that I wouldn't give Came from Bahrein, got to Beruit Looking for someone comparing to you Tearing down windows and doors And I could not find eyes like yours Came from Bahrein, got to Beruit Looking for someone comparing to you Tearing down windows and doors And I could not find eyes like yours Oh, I have just seen A woman of means In rags and begging some for pleasure Crossed a river of salt Just after I rode A ship that's sunk in the desert Ya he... And I have seen Darker than ebony Ya he... And now it seems, that I Without your eyes could never be My one desire, all I aspire Is in your eyes forever to live Traveled all over; the seven oceans There is nothing that I wouldn't give Came from Bahrein, got to Beruit Looking for someone comparing to you Tearing down windows and doors And I could not find eyes like yours Came from Bahrein, got to Beruit Looking for someone comparing to you Tearing down windows and doors And I could not find eyes like yours
Suerte (Whenever, Wherever) Words by: Shakira Music by: Shakira and Tim Mitchell
Suerte que en el Sur hayas nacido, Y que burlemos las distancias Suerte que es haberte conocido, Y por ti amar tierras extraсas Yo puedo escalar los Andes, Solo, por ir a contar tus lunares Contigo celebro y sufro todu, Mis alegrнas y mis males Lero lorebray...sabes que Estoy a tus pies. Contigo mi vida, Quiero vivir la vida. Y lo que me queda de vida, Quiero vivir contigo. Suerte que es tener labios sinceros, Para besarte con mбs ganas Suerte que mis pechos sean pequeсos, Y no los confundas con montaсas Suerte que heredй las piernas firmes, Para correr si un dнa hace falta Y estos dos ojos que me dicen, Que han de llorar cuando te vayas Lero lorebray...sabes que, Estoy a tus pies Contigo, mi vida Quiero vivir la vida. Y lo que me queda de vida, Quiero vivir contigo Lero lorebray...sabes que, Estoy a tus pies Lero lorebray La felicidad tiene tu nombre y tu piel Contigo, mi vida Quiero vivir la vida. Y lo que me queda de vida, Quiero vivir contigo Ya sabes mi vida, estoy hasta el cuello por ti, Y si sientes algo asн, quiero que te quedes junto a mн.
Te Aviso, Te Anuncio (Tango) Words and Music by: Shakira
Nunca pensй que doliera el amor asi, Cuando se entierra en el medio de un no Y un si Es un dнa ella y otro dнa yo Me estбs dejando sin corazуn Y cero de razуn Ay te aviso y te anuncio que hoy renuncio A tus negocios sucios Ya sabes que estoy de ti vacunada A prueba de patadas Por ti me quedй como Mona Lisa Sin llanto y sin sonrisa Que el Cielo y tu madre cuiden de ti Me voy serб mejor asн. Sй que olvidarte no es asunto sencillo Te me clavaste en el cuerpo como un Cuchillo Pero todo lo que entra ha de salir Y los que estбn tendrбn que partir Empezando por mi Ay te aviso y te anuncio que hoy renuncio A tus negocios sucios Ya sabes que estoy de ti vacunada A prueba de patadas Por ti me quedй como Mona Lisa Sin llanto y sin sonrisa Que el Cielo y tu madre cuiden de ti Me voy, Talvez tъ no eras ese para mн No sй cуmo se puede ya vivir Queriendo asi RAP Estan patйtico, neurуtico, satнrico y sicуtico Tu no lo ves El tango no es de a tres Ahi voy planeando escapar y me sale al reves Pero voy a intentarlo una y otra vez voy Ay te aviso y te anuncio que hoy renuncio A tus negocios sucios Por ti me quedй como Mona Lisa Sin llanto y sin sonrisa Te aviso que estoy de ti vacunada Que no me importa nada Que el Cielo y tu madre cuiden de ti Ya me voy, ya me fui, es mejor asн
