Underneath your clothes
Shakira Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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
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

'Cause of you, I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you, I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone, when the party's over
We will still belong to each other

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

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
For being such a, hey

I love you more than all that's on the planet
Movin', talkin', walkin', breathin'
You know it's true, oh baby it's so funny
You almost don't believe it

As every voice is hangin' from the silence
Lamps are hangin' from the ceiling
Like a lady tied to her manners
I'm tied up to this feeling

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

Underneath your clothes
Whoa oh, oh, oh
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve




For being such a good girl
For being such a good girl

Whoa oh, oh, oh
Vocalization to express emotion


For being such a good girl

You're a song

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
I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you
I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone
When the party's over
We will still belong to each other

Underneath Your Clothes

There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey

Buenas noches, las respuestas que le hace al entrevistador, es una indirecta que la cantante le hace a Alejandro Sanz, después que este le envío la canción Amiga Mía,

por sonar en la canción "INDISCRETO", por la otra dedicación "Aquello que me diste", y quiere que Alejandro Sanz se arrepienta (del envío de éstas canciones ), comparándolo con "Aito de La Rúa", y pongo comillas porque buscaba que Alejandro se retractara y se comparara con Gustavo Cerati , Gustavo Cerati la indiferenció ☹️.

Y Alejandro Sanz terminó idealizando a ésta cantante. 😞...
Es que Al .Sanz le dedicó (consumió como cada persona eso que canta sobre ...la potencia de "su"voz..., los pies con que camina...), pero es porque ella estaba otra vez mintiendo con hacerse pasar por Mary Jane, es decir, por Alanis Morissette https://youtu.be/HYHx5NlUlZk , no solo por la "fogosidad de la odalisca 🐖".

•¿ ! Confesará esta cantante haberse dedicado a ROBARLE y PLAGGEARLE TODO hasta los VIDEOS a ALANIS MORISSETTE ! ? (Se sonrió, y dijo "Donde están los ladrones").


Considera que ganar en la vida, consiste en Robar y Mentirle a la gente.
Ya como actríz le iba mal, y no triunfaba, como cantante nadie le compraba nada, hasta que en 1995, Alanis Morissette hace Disco Platino con en Álbum Jagged Little Pill, https://youtu.be/Jne9t8sHpUc y la Canción Ironic, y desde tal año, la de Barranquilla mezcló a "Marimar", la descalza de la playa de Barranquilla,

con su "idea de plaggear cada canción a Alanis Morissette.💰🎶💰🎶💰https://youtu.be/GFW-WfuX2Dk
Desde entonces le llama "Suerte", a todo en la Vida, y suena bastante ENGAÑOSA y es por seguir con mentiras respecto a la denominación "descalza".
I hope You Will Know about this "Star''.👎


No es lo mismo,"...pata pila en la playa...
A Descalza, mujeres transparentes como María Carey. A quién también le robó.✓ (Video Original https://youtu.be/7hohL24K0Cg

Empezó, además una Guerra de "Autenticidad", en contra de una imitadora de Freddie Mercury, y envío vídeos de una millonaria inversión en una Auto-Victimización desde el año 2005, en donde imita peor a Alanis Morissette, respecto a la canción Mary Jane de Alanis.

Desde allí se enojó por ser Alejandro Sanz, a quién había "indiferenciado", el que estaba dispuesto a mentir por "Amor" a esta cantante. Y enviaron en su interminable Guerra, "Fijación Oral". Todavía espera las disculpas Amy Lee, 🧐 a quién también le sacó hasta el vestido en el año 2006.https://youtu.be/5anLPw0Efmo

1995 Jagged Little Pill: ALANIS MORISSETTE:
... What's the matter Mary Jane, yooooooooouuuuuuuurrrrr, voice...🎶🎵🎼🤸✍️🎶❤️
1998 ALEJANDRO SANZ:
... ojalá pudiera mandar en el alma...
...llenarte LOS BOLSILLOS-ella- de guerras ganadas...
...tu piensas que estoy dando las noticias...
...Amiga mía..
.-

María Carey es la ANTÍTESIS de ésta artista ridícula.
Y Shhakira le roba bastante en los últimos 15 años. https://youtu.be/5j3WB2y4bI8 (Simplemente, loooovely❤️❤️❤️💕❤️💞❤️!

Es grave que aconseja llamarle SUERTE, a toda esa horrible forma de mal Obrar. Aquí se vé clarito además a qué más le llama "suerte"

@Celebritiesstory-_life123

Translation to Spanish
Eres una canción
Escrito por las manos de Dios
No me malinterpretes
Esto puede sonar un poco extraño para ti
Pero tú eres el dueño del lugar
Donde todos mis pensamientos se esconden
Y justo debajo de tu ropa
Es donde los encuentro

Debajo de tu ropa
Hay una historia interminable
Ahí está el hombre que elegí
Ahí está mi territorio
Y todas las cosas que merezco
Por ser una chica tan buena, cariño

Por tu culpa
Olvidé las formas inteligentes de mentir
Por tu culpa
Me estoy quedando sin razones para llorar
Cuando los amigos se hayan ido
Cuando termine la fiesta
Todavía nos perteneceremos el uno al otro

Debajo de tu ropa
Hay una historia interminable
Ahí está el hombre que elegí
Ahí está mi territorio
Y todas las cosas que merezco
Por ser una chica tan buena, cariño

Te amo más que todo lo que hay en el planeta
Movin 'hablando' caminando 'respirando
Sabes que es verdad
Oh nena, es tan gracioso
Casi no lo crees
Como cada voz cuelga del silencio
Lámparas cuelgan del techo
Como una dama atada a sus buenos modales
Estoy atado a este sentimiento

Debajo de tu ropa
Hay una historia interminable
Ahí está el hombre que elegí
Ahí está mi territorio
Y todas las cosas que merezco
Por ser una chica tan buena, cariño

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
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
'Cause of you, I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you, I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone, when the party's over
We will still belong to each other
Underneath your clothes

For being such a good girl honey

For being such a good girl honey
Underneath your clothes
Whoa
