It took me a while to start liking this song out of all her songs from the album She Wolf. After listening to it a couple more times it's coming around. I especially like the "I'm so fresh, I'm so clean..." part.
I don't honestly know if this song is based directly to Shakira's own life or written as an interpretation of something. But I could see it somewhat fitting into when she attempted to make it big in the States, and by that, I mean being popular in the mainstream. Imagine being so popular and considered beautiful in Europe and Latin America and coming the the US and people, particularly in this song, the guys not really giving even a second glance at you, because you're not the "typical" beauty. I mean, Shakira is certainly beautiful but she's got the exotic look instead of looking like Cali tan barbie doll. Anyway, this is my initial thought and unedited, at best.
I adore Shakira for still being a little "off" and different from what the mainstream is.

Look, it's very simple: she just wants to get laid, can't a girl get a break....
