We could have a whole tread dedicated to Shakira's awkward metaphors tbh (even though she didn't write empire)

Shakira is one of my favorite songwriters, lol. Her unconventional lyrics are the best. She's like an intellectual genius, so she probably just has a special way of thinking that the general public can't always appreciate. But I love the lyrics in her songs.

I don't know if it's because they're lost in translation or what. "I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office" is my personal favorite, and literally all the lyrics from "Whenever, Wherever" apply as well.

Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold": Yeah you PMS like a bitch I would know
The "I would know" part kinda hangs there and bugs me…

Wanna be friends, Phoebe Buffay
