D?nde Est?n Los Ladrones? (Where Are The Thieves?)

Shakira · Other Songs - Shakira

WHERE ARE THE THIEVES?

they've seen them around here

they've seen them on the rooves

giving back in Paris

convicting in the courts

with the powdered nose

in a tie or in blue jeans

they've seen them everywhere

without anything else to say

where are the thieves

where is the murderer

perhaps there flailing

in the neighbor's patio

and what happens if they are

and what happens if i am

the one who plays this guitar

or the one who sings this song

the one who sings this song

they've seen them on their knees

sitting or squating

stopped giving lessons

in all the positions

preaching in the churches

until offering concerts

they've seen them in all the bars

distributing ministeries

where are the thieves

where is the murderer

perhaps there flailing

in the neighbor's patio

and what happens if they are

and what happens if i am

the one who plays this guitar

or the one who sings this song

the one who sings this song
