Her Lyrics Don't Lie, or How Shaki teaches you to bring 'im back

You know how I love my 'Series' - so adding to the Everything I Learned I Learned from Animation, and my Seeing Double Series, I'm adding a Shakira-based mini-series called 'Her Lyrics Don't Lie'

"Come Back!" Edition:
Because while Madonna wants to save the World in 4 Minutes and Rihanna wants you to Shut Up and Drive, Shaki knows what's best...

vuelve, vuelve
vuelve, vuelve

que mi vida se desliza por un cano
que mis pies de estar
parados tienen callos
que no se como decirte que
te extrano
y ya en estas he pasado
mas de un ano
Vuelve (Pies Descalzos)

Yo quiero que vuelvas
Que te estan reclamando
Mis labios que hace tiempo no besas
Yo quiero que regreses
Ya ves que hasta mis manos
De tanto no tocarte me duelen me duelen
Que Vuelves (Donde Estan Los Ladrones?)

Y aunque me haga la invencible
Lo fatal lo imprescindible
Es que vuelvas a mi, vuelvas a mi, vuelve...
El dolor es sofocante
Y ahora todo lo importante
Es que vuelvas a mi, vuelvas a mi, vuelve...
No me tortures así
Lo Imprescindible (Fijacion Oral Vol 1)

Her Lyrics Don't Lie, or How Shaki teaches you to metaphorize

You know how I love my 'Series' - so adding to the Everything I Learned I Learned from Animation, and my Seeing Double Series, I'm adding a Shakira-based mini-series called 'Her Lyrics Don't Lie'

"Metaphors" Edition:
Because while Beyonce might Check on It and Fergie might just go 'Oh Shit!' Shaki plays with language...

I'll leave again
Cuz 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
Poem to a Horse (Laundry Service)

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
The Day and the Time (Oral Fixation Vol 2)

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 a I am with eight more lives
Ready for the Good Times (Laundry Service)

Her Lyrics Don't Lie, or How Shaki teaches you how to live

You know how I love my 'Series' - so adding to the Everything I Learned I Learned from Animation, and my Seeing Double Series, I'm adding a Shakira-based mini-series called 'Her Lyrics Don't Lie'

"I love you" Edition:
Because while Janet wants to Rock Wit You and Mariah wants you to Touch her Body, Shaki keeps it real (in 3 languages btw!)

y fue por ti que escribi mas
de 100 canciones
y hasta perdone tus
equivocaciones
y conoci mas de mil formas de besar
y fue por ti que descrubi
lo que es amar
lo que es amar...
Antologia (Pies Descalzos)

Eres mi desliz, mi pais feliz
Mi primavera,
Mi escalera al cielo, si
Si hablo demasiado
No dejes de lado
Que nadie mas te amara asi
Como lo hago... yo
No Creo (Donde Estan Los Ladrones)

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
The One (Laundry Service)

Quand tu, quand tu me prends dans tes bras
Quand je regarde dans tes yeux
Je vois que Dieu existe
C' est pas dur croire
En Tus Pupilas (Fijacion Oral Vol 1)

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
Your Embrace (Oral Fixation Vol 2)
