- Poem To A Horse Lyrics

You're too far to bring me close
Too high to see below
Just hangin' on your daily dose
I know you never needed anyone
But the rolling papers for your grass
How can you give what you don't have

You keep on aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain
With your hydroponic pot
I bet you'll find someone like you
'Cause there's a foot for every shoe
I wish you luck but I've other things to do

I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
I won't repeat it no, no more

Rather eat my soup with a fork
Or drive a cab in New York
'Cause to talk to you is harder work
What's the point of wasting all my words
If it's just the same or even worse
Than reading poems to a horse, ah
You keep on aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain
With your hydroponic pot
I bet you'll find someone like you
'Cause there's a foot for every shoe
I wish you luck but I've other things to do

I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love, so in love with yourself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love, so in love with yourself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

When we think about the meaning behind each verse, using the metaphor of talking to a horse, Shakira's 'Poem to a Horse' critiques a person's self-absorbed behavior and makes no bones about it. The lyrics of the Poem to a horse talk about fairly a lot of things simultaneously such as angst, heartbreak, reflection, anger and empowerment. Self-centeredness, frustration, and resignation are repeatedly mentioned within the song together with the concept of incompatibility. Drug use is alluded to through certain phrases ('rolling papers for your grass', 'hydroponic pot') and the overall mood of the lyrics is similar to that of a drug addict; there are also some mature themes that might not be appropriate for children. The language is not very rude but it touches upon quite complicated emotional and behavioral issues.
