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

vocal "She's probably the only international star that could get this much attention."
Which is most unfortunate. I don't hate Shakira or anything, but there are a plethora of more talented stars that deserve to get more attention around the world.
This song is okay. The lyrics and beat are all average. I agree it's a bit difficult to
understand the lyrics unless you're very familiar with the accent. (Which is strange,
since I didn't notice this problem with any of her other English songs ?_?)
It's not really a "problem" though, I don't have a great preference for those with
American accents.
It's also worth mentioning that her vocal style in this song is very.. well let's just
say some can tolerate it, others can't. I don't think it makes her less of a good
singer, just not the type that can appeal to everybody with her voice.

vocal It's very "Laundry Service-ish" You know with the rock and all.
I think I like her spanish songs more, but the english ones are great, too.
Have any1 noticed that when she dances to her rock songs she puts her elbow in towards the body, and her underarm and hand out away from the body? It looks kinnda weird. She's a great belly dancer, though.
Her voice isn't a great combination wit this song..
