[Intro: Shakira]
Shaka
[Verse 1: Shakira]
I went out to clear my head
And I was tired of being turned off
I decided to turn on
I changed friends because the ones who were
Only talked about him
The hard way I had to learn
That I have nothing to lose
And like them too
[Chorus: Shakira]
I have the right to behave badly
To have a good time
I'm loose and now I can do what I want
It's great being single
I have the right to behave badly
To have a good time
I'm loose and now I can do what I want
It's great being single (Shaka)
[Verse 2: Shakira]
The day is for a party, beach
And to go over the line (Ah-ah)
In the sand on the towel (Ah-ah)
That little plan never fails, lla-lla
This girl has fans
And the heart broke like Sanz (Ah-ah)
There are many who they throw, but
Few are what they give me
I'm selective, little trajectory, normal
For obvious reasons, I'm afraid of love
Dog that writes to me, screenshot and for his girlfriend
[Pre-Chorus: Shakira]
Nobody's gonna tell me how I should behave
You can have an opinion
[Chorus: Shakira]
But I have the right to behave badly
To have a good time
I'm loose and now I can do what I want
It's great being single
I have the right to behave badly
To have a good time
I'm loose and now I can do what I want
It's great being single, ah
[Verse 3: Shakira]
With a view of the sea I booked the hotel
I got turned on with just one cocktail
I put on little clothes to show my skin
The queen bee is dropping honey
[Proverb: Shakira]
It still smells like summer here
What's wrong with it? Yes
That's for use and
My body is saying
[Chorus: Shakira]
I have the right to misbehave (Shaka)
To have a good time
I'm free and now I can do what I want
It's great being single, ah, ah, ah
[Refrain: Shakira]
It still smells like summer here
What's wrong with it? Yes
That's for use and
My body is saying
It still smells like summer here
And that's for use, oh, yeah
Today I win something here
Ouch!
Shaka
[Outro: Shakira, Anitta, Danna Paola & Lele Pons & Todas]
Oh, oh, it's so good being single (And now the wolves)
I have the right to misbehave
To have a good time
I'm free, now I can do whatever I want (Oh, how good)
It's so good being single (Look how good, ay-ay, ay-ay, ay-ay, ay-ay, ay-ay, ay)
I have the right to misbehave
To have a good time
I'm free and, now I can do whatever I want
It's so good being single (Uh, uh)
I have the right to misbehave
To have a good time
So that that bastard, when he sees me, it hurts him
It's so good being single
I have the right to misbehave
To have a good time
So that that bastard, when he sees me, it hurts him
It's so good being single

She conveys a feeling of exhaustion from being tied down emotionally and decides to surround herself with positive energy. The line about learning the hard way but having nothing to lose speaks to personal growth through adversity. Shakira's emphasis on self-discovery marks a turning point where she takes control of her own happiness.
[Coro: Shakira]
The chorus is the heart of the song’s empowering message. Shakira declares her right to "behave badly" in the sense of breaking free from societal expectations and fully enjoying her independence. This section celebrates the joys of being single, highlighting freedom and self-expression as keys to happiness.
[Verso 2: Shakira]
In the second verse, Shakira amplifies the tropical, carefree atmosphere. She paints a vivid picture of enjoying life on the beach, a symbol of peace and renewal. Her reference to having "fans" and being selective reflects her newfound self-respect. The mention of past heartbreak and distrust of love shows a protective stance, yet Shakira remains in control of her narrative, determined to prioritize herself.

Here, Shakira rejects societal norms and opinions about how she should behave. She asserts her autonomy and individuality, reinforcing the theme that her happiness comes from within and isn’t dictated by external judgments.
[Verso 3: Shakira]
In this verse, Shakira describes a moment of indulgence and self-care. She books a hotel with a view of the sea, showing her desire to pamper herself. The playful imagery of enjoying a cocktail and wearing minimal clothing shows her confidence and comfort in her own skin. The reference to being the "queen bee" highlights her self-empowerment and ability to attract attention on her own terms.
[Refrán: Shakira]
This refrain brings in the summer element, associating the carefree, sensual energy of summer with personal freedom. Shakira suggests that she has every right to enjoy the moment, encouraging others to do the same. Her body is the symbol of liberation, and she’s fully embracing it.
