How do you do?
Lyrics by Shakira Music by Shakira, L. Christy, S. Spock, G. Edwards
Forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who have trespassed against us Give us this day our daily bread, daily bread, daily bread
In cello et in terra fiat voluntas tua Gloria Spiritui Sancto
What language do you speak, if you speak at all? Are you some kind of freak, who lives to raise the one who fall? Hey could you tell me why the cat fights the dog? Do you go to the mosque or the synagogue?
And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger And if you wrote the script, then why the trouble makers?
Chorus: How do you do? How does it feel to be so high? And are you happy? Do you ever cry? You've made mistakes, well that's ok 'cause we all have But if I forgive yours, will you forgive mine?
Hey do you feel our pain And walk in our shoes? Have you ever felt starved? Or is your belly always full? How many people die and hurt in your name? Hey does that make you proud, or does it bring you shame?
And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger And if you wrote the script, then why the trouble makers?
Chorus: How do you do? How does it feel to be so high...
Forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who have trespassed against us Give us this day our daily bread, daily bread, daily bread
Arabic: Sameh Zoonoobee Allah (Forgive My Sins Oh Lord) Ya Allah (Oh Lord)
Hebrew: S'lach lanu (forgive us) Mechilah (forgiveness)
Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, amen!
Chorus: How do you do? How does it feel to be so high...
Don't Bother
She’s got the kind of look that defies gravity She’s the greatest cook And she’s fat free
She’s been to private school And she speaks perfect French She’s got the perfect friends Oh isn’t she cool
She practices Tai Chi She'd never lose her nerve She's more than you deserve She's just far better than me
Hey, hey
So don’t bother I won’t die of deception I promise you won’t ever see me cry Don’t feel sorry
And don't bother I’ll be fine But she’s waiting The ring you gave to her will lose its shine So don’t bother, be unkind
I’m sure she doesn’t know How to touch you like I would I beat her at that one good Don’t you think so?
She's almost six feet tall She must think I'm a flea I’m really a cat you see And it's not my last life at all
Hey, hey
So don't bother I won't die of deception I promise you won't ever see me cry Don't feel sorry
Don't bother I’ll be fine But she's waiting The ring you gave to her will lose its shine So don’t bother, be unkind
For you, I'd give up all I own And move to a communist country If you came with me, of course And I'd file my nails so they don't hurt you And lose those pounds, and learn about football If it made you stay, but you won't, but you won't
So don't bother, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine Promise you won't ever see me cry
And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type Promise you won't ever see me cry
Don’t bother, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine Promise you won’t ever see me cry
And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type Promise you won't ever see me cry
NO TE MOLESTES
Ella tiene ese aspecto que le gana a la gravedad Es la mejor en la cocina Y además es libre de grasa
Estudió en escuela privada Y habla el francés perfecto Tiene los amigos perfectos Ella es toda perfecta, ¿no es cierto?
Practica el Tai Chi Así que nunca perdería los nervios Ella es más de lo que tú mereces Y es mucho mejor que yo
Pero no te molestes No moriré de decepción Te prometo que nunca me vas a ver llorar No te sientas mal por mí Y no te molestes Voy a estar bien Pero ella esta esperándote Y el anillo que le regalaste va a perder su brillo Así que no te molestes y sé descortés
Estoy segura de que no sabe tocarte como lo haría yo En eso le gano y le gano bien, ¿no crees?
Mide casi 6 pies Debe pensar que soy una pulga Pero en realidad soy un gato Y ésta no es mi última vida
Así que no te molestes No moriré de decepción Te prometo que nunca me vas a ver llorar No te sientas mal por mí Y no te molestes Voy a estar bien Pero ella está esperándote Y el anillo que le regalaste va a perder su brillo Así que no te molestes y sé descortés
Por ti cedería todos mis bienes Y me iría a vivir a un país comunista Si vinieras conmigo por supuesto Y me limaría las uñas para que no te lastimen Y perdería esas libras de más Y aprendería de fútbol Si eso hiciera que te quedaras Pero no lo harás, Pero no lo harás
Así que no te molestes… Voy a estar bien, Voy a estar bien. . . Te prometo que nunca me vas a ver llorar Después de todo me alegro que no sea tu tipo Te prometo que nunca me vas a ver llorar
Illegal
Featuring Carlos Santana Lyrics by Shakira Music by Shakira and Lester Mendez
Who would have thought that you could hurt me The way you've done it So deliberate, so determined And since you have been gone I bite my nails for days and hours And question my own questions on and on
So tell me now, tell me now Why you're so far away When I'm still so close
Chorus: You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm Sorry" You said you would love me until you die And as far as I know you're still alive, baby And you don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm Sorry" I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive A woman's heart
I tried so hard to be attentive To all you wanted Always supportive, always patient What did I do wrong? Been wondering for days and hours It's clear it isn't here where you belong
Anyhow, anyway I wish you both all the best I hope you get along
Chorus: You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm Sorry"...
Chorus: You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm Sorry"
Open heart, open heart It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart
Open heart, open heart It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart
The day and the time
Featuring Gustavo Cerati Lyrics by Shakira and Pedro Aznar Music by Shakira, Gustavo Cerati and Luis F. Ochoa
Who's to say That we always have to agree I think we both can take this one mistake Like some kind of amnesty
Why to love and with such brutality We're compatible But maybe a bit too much That's our ambiguity
I've cried a thousand storms I've blown away the clouds The heartbeat of the sun Is racing mine And listen how My heart is waiting
Chorus: This is the day and the time I wanna believe That we may still have a chance We took a leap in the dark But I can see now That shadows have turned to light
Well we know how ephemeral life is Disillusion takes what illusion gives What's the use of make believe
The needles of the clock Are moving right to left Pretend we never heard the things we said Like we've been deaf And start all over
Chorus: This is the day and the time...
The heartbeat of the sun Is racing mine And listen how
Chorus: This is the day and the time...
Animal City
Lyrics by Shakira Music by Shakira and Luis F. Ochoa
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 that's vain Save you, from the things that cause us pain
Chorus: 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 to rip you right off
They believe you now have everything you wanted And once you have become a star you have 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 We got to earn every breath we take, baby never mind the rules we break
Chorus: Cause it's an animal city...
Cannibal world So be obedient, don't argue Some are ready to bite you my love
Dreams for plans
Lyrics by Shakira Music by Shakira and Brendan Buckley
Once upon a time you and I When we were green and easy Fresh as limes and happy as a Sunday sky There was nothing we could sell or buy 'Cause all we really needed Was our barefeet and a pair of wings to fly
What do you think darling? Have we lived too much too fast? And have you, have you felt the melancholy, darling, Wishing the time hadn't passed?
Chorus: Can you tell me how it used to be? Have we missed our chance? Have we changed our hopes for fears And our dreams for plans?
Can you tell me how it used to be When we really cared? And when love was on our side On our side
I remember all the times before When we could spend our living Staring at the ceiling, lying on the floor Our vocabulary wasn't broad And I spoke so little English That the word "stress" would sound like something odd
What do you think darling? Have we lived too much too fast? And have you, have you felt the melancholy, darling, Wishing the time hadn't passed?
Chorus: Can you tell me how it used to be?
What is your guess darlin'? have I lived too much too fast? So if you, if you ever come and find me cryin' Now you know, now you know why
Can you tell me how I used to be? Have I missed our chance? Have I changed my hopes for fears And my dreams for plans?
Can you tell me how it used to be When we really cared? And when love was on our side On our side
Hey you
Lyrics by Shakirs/Music by Shakira and Tim Mitchell
I'd like to be the dream you'd never share To be your boss and to be your maid Your shaving cream, your razorblade 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
Chorus: Hey you, I'm makin' an offer that No one could every refuse Don't play the adament Don't be so arrogrant Can't you see I'm fallin' for you?
Hey you, I'm makin' an offer that No one would dare to refuse Don't play the adament Don't be so arrogrant 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 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 in the between, and be your slave and be your queen
Chorus:
Hey you, I'm makin' an offer....
Chorus: Hey you, I'm makin' an offer
Let me in, let me be your muse, be your muse tonight
Your embrace
Lyrics by Shakira/Music by Shakira and Tim Mitchell
Tell me what's the use of a 24 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 closets full of dresses That I'll never wear
My life is full of people But you are my best friend My best friend
Chorus: Hope it isn't too late to say I love you Hope it isn't too late that say That without you this place Looks like London, it rains everyday Don't you know it babe, I'm only half a body Without your embrace
Let me tell you what 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 closets full of dresses That I'll never wear
My life is full of people But you are my only friend My best friend
Chorus: Hope it isn't too late to say I love you..
Costume makes the clown
Lyrics by Shakira/Music by Shakira & Brendan Buckley
Told you felt lucky with my humble breasts Well I don't Said that I was sure the world was gonna change Well I'm not Swore I didn't give a damn 'bout what they say But I do Promised that I never lie to you
But look at how I'm taking the make-up off my face Before I forget my own features
Chorus: Cause I'm not here to let you down But the costume makes the clown That's just life's anatomy Don't be so hard, don't be so hard on it It's your turn now to cheat on me
The promises I made went down the sink But I really hope I didn't hurt your self esteem I'm not a virgin, but I'm not the whore you think And I don't always smell like strawberries and cream
So look at how I'm takin' the makeup off my face Before I forget who I am
Chorus: Cause I'm not here to let you down...
Chorus: Cause I'm not here to let you down...
Something
Lyrics by Shakira/ Music by Shakira and Luis F. Ochoa
Quand tu me prends dans te bras Quand je regare dans te yeux Je vois qu'un dieu existe Ce n'est pas dur d'y croire
Before I met you I wasn't terribly lucky Every prince charming lost charm after 12 But then you came and made the past look funny Put my old sadness to sleep on a shelf
If this was meant to be Don't condemn me to be free And even if we never marry I will always love you, baby, childishly
Chorus: Cause something You've got something I can't resist Things are what they will be When I look into your eyes they say to me That God still exist
And there's something You've got something I can't resist Things are what they will be When I look into your eyes they say to me That God still exist
You make me believe, You make me believe
I love the temperature and smell of your body The shape of your lips The size of your nose I love that everything you say is so funny Plus you're the best kisser that I've ever known
You've seen the way I am Without make up, without clothes And you accept me like nobody And I will always love you baby With eyes closed
Chorus
French part
And there's something... I believe And there's something.... I believe There's something... I believe, I believe
Timor
Lyrics and music by Shakira
It's alright, it's alright Cause the system never fails The good guys are in power and the bad guys are in jail
It's alright, it's alright Just as long as we can vote We live in a democracy And that's what we promote Isn't it, Isn't it?
It's alright, it's alright If the news says half the truth Hearing what we want is the secret of eternal youth It's alright, it's alright If the planet splits in three Cause I'll keep selling records and you've got your MTV
Chorus: If we forget about them don't worry If they forget about us then hurry How about a people who don't matter anymore? If we forget about them, don't worry If they forget about us, then hurry
How about a people who don't matter anymore? East Timor. Timor. Timor.
It's alright, it's alright They don't show it all on TV So we won't really know it Just by watching *BC
It's alright, it's alright For our flag, we die or kill As long as we don't know We'd do it just to pay their bills Let's keep tanning while it's sunny They'll risk our hides to make their money Now don't you find that funny
Chorus: if we forget about them don't worry... |
