way too much time in my car

ok, so i had mentioned the music thing and well, it's an essential for as much time as i spend in my car. unfortunately it's mostly assy radio stations up here top40 assee simpson caterwauling so usually as far as radio i listen to NPR or a san francisco station when i get reception. otherwise i broadcast my ipod over my radio with a cool little gizmo attached to the top.

but occasionally, like the other day, i listen to the radio and hear something that makes me suck in my breath. this particular day i heard SHAKIRA in ENGLISH singing a song i hadn't heard before and i knew like within the first two notes it was her and i blasted it. and i'm laughing because i feel like in that scene in the movie BETTER OFF DEAD after john cusack's girlfriend breaks up with him, every song on the radio on every station is a break up song so he tosses the damn thing out the window. not to say i'm going through a break up per se, but that lately all the songs i've heard on the radio when i've listened to them have somehow resonated with how i've been feeling lately. so i was instantly elated when i heard her voice and i was instantly taken aback by some of the lyrics.

DON'T BOTHER
BY SHAKIRA
he'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 6 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
