Objection (Tango) lyrics

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.

Objection I don't wanna big 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

Undernearth Your Clothes lyrics

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

Whenever, Wherever lyrics

Lucky you were born that far away so
We could both make fun of distance
Luck that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existance

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

Rules lyrics

You have to swear
You've got love to love me
That will last forever
We must have a story
With a happy ending
I swear to never go away
And never put aside
The things I'm gonna say
Cuz these are rules for us

[Chorus:]

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 at me
You can cry only if you cry for me

The One lyrics

So I find a reason to shave my legs
Each single morning
So I count on someone on Friday nights
To take me dancing again
To church on Sundays
To plant more *dreams*
And someday think of kids
Or maybe just save a little money

[Chorus:]
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

Ready For The Good Times lyrics

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 a I am with eight more lives

Fool lyrics

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
'til the time
you start changig
the rules
I'll keep chasing
the soles
of your shoes

Te Dejo Madrid lyrics

uh... ah ah
si, ya es hora de esconder
del mundo el dolor
bajo la piel

yo se que estare bien
los gatos como yo
caen de pie

no quiero
jugar mi suerte por ti
y no puedo
con fui pequeña vivir
pronto estare de aqui
muy muy lejos

[coro]

ay me voy otra vez
ay te dejo Madrid
las rutinas de piel
y tus ganas de huir

yo no quiero cobardes
que me hagan sufrir
mejor le digo adios
a tu boca de anis

Poem to a Horse lyrics

You're to 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 top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot
You start out playing with yourself
You get more fun within your shell

Que Me Quedes Tu lyrics

Que se arruinen los canales de noticias
Con lo mucho que veo la television
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 peliculas de accion
Que se destruyan en el mundo los placeres
Y que se escriba hoy una ultima cancion

Pero que me quedes tu
Y me quede tu abrazo
Y el beso que inventas cada dia

Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Asi) lyrics

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 Ya he Ya la 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

Tu lyrics

Te regalo mi cintura
Y mis labios para cuando quieras besar
Te regalo mi locura
Y las pocas neuronas que quedan ya
Mis zapatos destenidos
El diario en el que escribo
Te doy hasta mis suspiros
Pero no te vayas mas

Porque eres tu mi sol
La fe con que vivo
La potencia de mi voz
Los pies con que camino
Eres tu amor
Mis ganas de reir
El adios que no sabre decir

Debajo De Tu Ropa lyrics

Eres un canción
Escrita por las manos de Dios
No me malinterpretes
Aunque lo que digo suene extraño
Pero eres el dueño del lugar
Donde se esconden todos mis pensamientos
Y justo debajo de tus ropas
Es donde los encuentro

Debajo de tu ropa
Hay una historia interminable
Está el hombre que escogí
mi territorio
Y todo lo que me merezco
Por haber sido tan buena chica

Ojos Asi (Eyes Like Yours) lyrics

yesterday i knew a sky without sun

and a man without ground

a priest in prison

and a sad song without an owner

ya he, ya he, ya la he

and i knew your black eyes

ya he, ya he, ya la he

and now yes that

i can't live without them i

asked to the heavens only one wish

that in your eyes i can live

i've traveled the entire world

and a thing i'm coming to say to you

Objection lyrics

It's not her fault that she's so irresistible
But all the damage she's caused is unfixable
Every twenty seconds you repeat her name
But when it comes to me you don't care
If I'm alive or dead, so

Chorus:
Objection
I don't want to be the exception
To get a bit of your attention
Love is for free and
I'm not your mother
But you don't even bother
Objection
I'm tired of this triangle

Pies Dezcalzos lyrics

Te dejo, Madrid
Si ya es hora de esconder
Del mundo el dolor
Bajo la piel
Más se que estaré bien
Los gatos como yo caen de pie
No quiero
Jugar mi suerte por ti
No puedo
Con fe pequeña vivir
Pronto estaré de aquí
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 adiós
A tu boca de anis

Te Aviso, Te Anuncio lyrics

Nunca pense que doliera el amor asi
cuando se entierra en el medio de un no y un si
es un dia ella y otro dia yo
me estas dejando sin corazon y cero de razon

Ay te aviso, te anuncio que hoy renuncio
a tus negocios sucios
ya sabes que estoy de ti vacunada
a prueba de patadas
por ti me quede como Monalisa
sin llanto y sin sonrisa
que el cielo y tu madre cuiden de ti...
me voy
sera mejor asi

Suerte lyrics

Suerte que en el sur hayas nacido
y que burlemos las distancias
suerte que es haberte conocido
y por ti amar tierras extrañas
Yo puedo escalar los Andes solo
por ir a contar tus lunares
contigo celebro y sufro todo
mis alegrias y mis males

Le ro lo le lo le
le ro lo le lo le
Sabes que estoy a tus pies

Contigo, mi vida
quiero vivir la vida
y lo que me queda de vida
quiero vivir contigo

Objection (Afro-punk Version) lyrics

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, eh, eh, eh... ow!

Next to her cheap silicon I look minimal
That's why in front of your eyes I'm invisible
But yuo gotta know small things also count
You better put your feet on the ground
And see it's about, so...

Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Asi) (In Lebanese) lyrics

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 ya he ya la he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
You know 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
Crossed lands and oceans

The One (I Need) lyrics

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 youâre close to me
I'm holding on
You're the one I need
My real life has just begon

Suerte (Spanish) lyrics

Suerte que en el sur hayas nacido
Y que burlemos las distancias
Suerte que es haberte conocido
Y por ti amar tierras extraÃas
Yo puedo escalar los Andes
SÃlo, por ir a contar tus lunares
Contigo celebro y sufro todo
Mis alegrÃas 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,

Whatever, Don't Matter (Parody) lyrics

Baby I was born that far away so,
I speak English as a se-cond language,
I don't understand the words I say,
There's no word that rymes with language,
Lucky that I have a smoken' body,
Cause I only sing in jibberish,
Lucky that I am uh such a hottie,
Watch my hips go quiverish,

Good news for you, I'm double jointed, too

Whatever, Don't Matter,
