Lyrics Shakira Costume makes the Clown

Shakira - Costume makes the Clown

Told you I felt lucky with my humble breasts
Well I don't
Said that I was sure the world was gonna change
Well I'm not
Swore I didn't give a damn 'bout what they say
But I do
Promised that I'd never ever lie to you

But look at how
I'm takin' the makeup off my face
Before I forget my own features

Chorus:
I'm not here to let you down
But the costume makes the clown
That's just life's anatomy
Don't be so hard, don't be so hard on it
It's your turn now to cheat on me

The promises I made to you went down the sink
But I really hope I didn't hurt your self esteem
I'm not a virgin, but I'm not the whore you think
And I don't always smell like strawberries and cream

So look at how
I'm takin' the makeup off my face
Before I forget who I am now

Chorus 2x
