HEY YOU
"I'd like to be the only thing on earth that makes you cry, the only thing that makes you happy. Soon you will see that no one else but me can take you this high. And soon you'll make your last name mine!"
That's from Shakira's song "Hey You" from Oral Fixation Vol. 2. It's a really playful song...so, naturally, I didn't take it very seriously (much like "Escondite Ingles" from Fijacion Oral Vol. 1). But now that I've listened to it more...and I've seen a performance of this song...I love it! It's such a fun song to sing along to and stuff...yep~
So, the more and more I'm indecisive about my hair, the more and more it's growing out. And soon it will look very strange, as half black and half blond. So what should I do? I said maybe I'll leave it black...but I don't know if I want to do that. I think it'll be the same color as it is now...except a little darker (that's what I wanted in the first place anyway...but whatever...)
So, Christmas went by rather quickly this year. Maybe it's because I've stopped attending the Christmas mass and regarding this holiday as religious at all. Truly, is Christmas religious to most people anymore? Without a doubt, Christmas has becoming a holiday whose central focus is on gifts, gifts, and more gifts. And the truth is...that I really don't care either way. It stopped being a religious holiday for me long ago, after all.
I bought Shakira's Fijacion Oral Vol. 1 last year in the middle of November. I remember that the day was cold and rainy. And I was shopping with my friend Mariana at Cincinnati Mills. Oral Fixation Vol. 2 hadn't come out yet, so I decided to buy Fijacion in preparation...and that was the first Shakira cd that I had ever bought (I always had her music on my computer, but I started to consider that she was an artist whom I love enough to actually support). I bought Oral Fixation in November. And I bought the remaining three cd's in early 2006.
But anyway, the whole point of that...was to say that, due to the fact that I bought Fijacion around the time of Christmas, there is a song on that cd that always reminds me of the Christmas season. The song is called "Dia Especial" and it is the fifth track on that album. The only part of that song that reminds me of this season is the instrumental break towards the end of the song. It's really beautiful, and it always reminds me of snow falling and covering the ground...and event which did not occur this year. I wasn't very upset by this, because I'm not very fond of the freezing cold weather. However, I did start to long for the carefree days of childhood, when all that really mattered was that I got to play outside in the snow for just a little bit during Christmas.
I kind of miss being a carefree child. Now I'm just a bundle of worries and problems, who's plagued by occassional pimples here and there. At least I have pretty good skin to keep me from becoming infested with planets on the side of my face...hah.
Anyway...so, here are the lyrics to "Hey You". It's a really cute song.
"Hey You" - Shakira (Oral Fixation Vol. 2)
I'd like to be the kind of dream you'd never share
To be your boss and to be your maid
Your shaving cream, your razor blade
The buttons of your shirt, your favorite underwear
I'd like to be the only thing on earth that makes you cry
The only thing that makes you happy
Soon you will see that no one else but me can take you this high
And soon you'll make your last name mine
Hey, you
I'm makin' an offer that no one could ever refuse
Don't play the adamant, don't be so arrogant
Can't you see I've fallen for ya'
Hey, you
I'm makin' an offer that no one would dare to refuse
Don't play the adamant, don't be so arrogant
Let me in, let me be your muse tonight
I'd like to be the first white hair upon your head
To be your cherry pie, your daily bread
I'll cook for free, I'll make your bed
If I can know the things you thought and never said
I'd like to be the owner of the zipper on your jeans
And that thing that makes you happy
I'd like to be the beginning, the end and the in-between
And be your slave, and be your queen
Hey, you
I'm makin' an offer that no one could ever refuse
Don't play the adamant, don't be so arrogant
Can't you see I've fallen for ya'
Hey, you
I'm makin' an offer that no one would dare to refuse
Don't play the adamant, don't be so arrogant
Let me in, let me be your muse tonight
