Shakira, Hey You

I'd like to be
The kind of dream you'd never share
To be your boss and to be your maid
Your shaving cream, your razor blade
The buttons of your shirt
Your favourite underwear

I'd like to be
The only thing on Earth that makes you cry
The only thing that makes you happy
Soon you will see
That no one else but me can take you this high
And soon you'll make your last name mine

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one could ever refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one would dare to refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Let me in
Let me be your muse tonight

Tonight...
Tonight...

I'd like to be
The first white hair upon your head
To be your cherry pie
Your daily bread
I'll cook for free
I'll make your bed
If I can know the things you've thought and never said

I'd like to be the owner of the zipper on your jeans
And that thing that makes you happy
I'd like to be the beginning, the end
And the inbetween
And be your slave
And be your Queen

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one could ever refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one would dare to refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Let me in
Let me be your muse tonight

Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight...

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one could ever refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you
Makin' an offer that
No one would ever refuse
Don't play the adamant
Don't be so arrogant
Let me in
Let me be your muse tonight

Oooh...
Tonight...
Tonight
Oh, oh
Oooh...
Tonight...
Tonight...
Oooh...
Oh, oh

Let me in
Let me be your muse
Be your muse tonight

Shakira, Back In Black

Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back (I bet you know I'm...)
Yes, I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I've been looking at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse 'cause I never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild

CORO:
'Cause I'm back
OH Yes, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
(Well) I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black

Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a band
With a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
Just look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way

CORO

Well, I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

hooo yeah
Ohh yeah
Yes I am
Oooh yeah, yeah Oh yeah
Back in now
Well I'm back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back
Back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Out of the sight

Shakira, Your Embrace

Tell me, what's the use
Of the twenty-four inch waist
If you don't touch me?
Tell me, what's the use again
Of being on TV every day
If you don't watch me?

This house is full of emptiness
My closet's full of dresses
That I'll never wear
My life is full of people
But you're my only friend
My best friend

Hope it isn't too late
To say "I love you"
Hope it isn't too late to say
That without you this place looks like London
It rains every day
Don't you know it, babe
I'm only half a body
Without your embrace

Let me tell you why
My heart is an unfurnished room
Any suggestions?
Don't have to tell you more than that
'Cause no one knows me like you do
Without exception

This house is full of emptiness
My closet's full of dresses
That I'll never wear
My life is full of people
But you're my only friend
My best friend

Hope it isn't too late
To say "I love you"
I hope it isn't too late to say
That without you this place looks like London
It rains every day
Don't you know it, babe
I'm only half a body
Without your embrace

Hope it isn't too late
To say "I love you"
Hope it isn't too late to say
That without you this place looks like London
It rains every day
Don't you know it, babe
I'm only half a body
Without your embrace

Shakira, Animal City

La la la la la lei
La la lei
La la la la la la lei
La la lei

Why do all my friends
Now want to be your lovers?
Your family got bigger
When they thought you were rich

And now like maniacs
They scratch your back
Even when it doesn't itch

I want to figure it all
I want to figure it all out
I want to save you from
Save you from all the fame
Save you from the things that cause us pain

'Cause it's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to fight you

It's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to fight you
My love

They believe you now
Have everything you wanted
And once you have become a star
You got no right to bitch

But someday when you fail
They'll put you on sale
And buy you by the inch

But you're the real deal
And "real" is your middle name
You know sometimes I feel
I gotta earn every breath you take
Baby, never mind the rules we break

'Cause it's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you

It's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready rip you right off

With you I feel safe
There's nothing to fear from us
Away from the fangs
The fangs of the world
I may be a coward but you are brave
And nothing seems so dangerous

'Cause it's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you

It's an animal city
It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready rip you right off

Cannibal world
Cannibal world
Cannibal world
Cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you
My love

Shakira, Special Day

I don't know if it's already too late for you
I want to defy comfort
It doesn't help us to pretend

I don't know how ephemeral your mistake is
I already forgave you
I set forward the hands of the clock

The tear dried up
The storm passed
Beating like the sun
My heart will never grow tired
Of waiting for you

This is a special day
I want to believe in another opportunity
We took a mortal leap
And today i return to see
A light in the darkness

No longer am i as confused as yesterday
Only illusion brings disillusion
And it is so easy to fall

The world in which i believed
The eternal and the fleeting
I prefer to give closure
Although you hide the most vulnerable truth from me

This is a special day
I want to believe in another opportunity
We took a mortal leap
And today i return to see
A light in the darkness

Beating like the sun
My heart will not grow tired

This is a special day
I want to believe in another opportunity
We took a mortal leap
And today i return to see
A light in the darkness

Shakira, Waka Waka (This Time For Afrika)

You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle

You're on the front line
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious
We are getting closer
This isn't over

The pressure is on
You feel it
But you got it all
Believe it

When you fall get up, oh oh
If you fall get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Cuz this is Africa
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh

This time for Africa

Listen to your God
This is our motto
Your time to shine
Don't wait in line
Y vamos por todo

People are raising
Their expectations
Go on and feed them
This is your moment
No hesitations

Today's your day
I feel it
You paved the way
Beleive it

If you get down get up, oh oh
When you get down get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
