Ayy, yeah
Ayy, ayy

So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me (la-la-latinas, eh)

I want a girl like Shakira, eh
Esa latina está rica (ah)
I want to find me a chica que sepa vivir y que viva la vida
I need a bien bonita
Elegante señorita
Girl, I want you and I need ya
All of my life, yup, baby, let's team up
I want a girl that shine like glitter (bling)
A girl that don't need no filter
The real for real
A girl that's a natural killa (prr)
I want a girl that's a heater (hot)
Caliente, off the meter (hot)
Yo quiero, mira, yo quiero
Una chica que no me diga mentiras

So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Me llevas en tu mente
Soy adictiva como el azúcar
Me buscas permanentemente
¿No ves que solo quiero jugar?

Latinas
Latinas
La-la-latinas
La-la-latinas

Sacúdelo como Shaki
Baby, drop it low on top me
Electric field, so shock me
Your hips don't lie, they rock me
Baby, come get me, you got me
Oye, mami, ven aquí
You know I'm liking what I see
Muévelo, muévelo, muévelo así
Yo quiero una mujer
Una princesa no tiene pa' ver
Esa chick with no boundaries that's down for whatev'
Buena en la cama, she good in the bed
A girl that be using her head (her head)
To use the cabeza, the best
I want a girl who's a diva
No quiero otra, sí, eso es

So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Want a girl who shines like glitter
Baby, you know I need no filter
For real, I'm real
You know I'm real
Like that my lips are so glossy
Like it when I get so bossy
Baby, if you do it my way
Just for the hell of it, I'll let you love me

Latinas
Latinas
Sha-Sha-Shakira
Sha-Sha-Shakira

I like latinas
Ones who look like Selena
Shake your bunda like Anitta
Morena, estás más fina
I like dominicanas
Boricuas and colombianas
In East L.A. I like the chicanas
And they want a piece of the big manzana, eh

So they tell me that you're lookin' for a girl like me
Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Me llevas en tu mente
Soy adictiva como el azúcar
Me buscas permanentemente
¿No ves que solo quiero jugar?

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
