BEYONCÉ - BEAUTIFUL LIAR

Ay
Ay
Ay (Nobody Likes To Be Played)
Oh, BeyoncÉ, BeyoncÉ
Oh, Shakira, Shakira

(Hey!)

He Said, I'm Worth It, His One Desire
(I Know Things About Him That You Wouldn't Wanna Read About)
He Kissed Me, His One And Only
(This) Beautiful Liar
(Tell Me How You Tolerate The Things You Just Found Out About)

You'll Never Know
Why Are We The Ones Who Suffer
Have To Let Go
He Won't Be The One To Cry

(Ay) Let's Not Kill The Karma
(Ay) Let's Not Start A Fight
(Ay) It's Not Worth The Drama
For A Beautiful Liar
(Oh) Can't We Laugh About It (Ha Ha Ha)
(Oh) It's Not Worth Our Time
(Oh) We Can Live Without Him
Just A Beautiful Liar

I Trusted Him
But When I Followed You
I Saw You Together
(I Didn't Know About You Then 'Till I Saw You With Him Again)
I Walked In On Your Love Scene
Slow Dancing
(You Stole Everything How Can You Say I Did You Wrong)

We Never Know
When The Pain And Heartbreaks Over
Have To Let Go
The Innocence Is Gone

(Ay) Let's Not Kill The Karma
(Ay) Let's Not Start A Fight
(Ay) It's Not Worth The Drama
For A Beautiful Liar
(Oh) Can't We Laugh About It (Ha Ha Ha)
(Oh) It's Not Worth Our Time
(Oh) We Can Live Without Him
Just A Beautiful Liar

Tell Me How To Forgive You
When It's Me Who's Ashamed
And I Wish I Could Free You
Of The Hurt And The Pain
But The Answer Is Simple
He's The One To Blame

(Hey!)

Ay, BeyoncÉ, BeyoncÉ
Ay, Shakira, Shakira
Oh, BeyoncÉ, BeyoncÉ
Oh, Shakira, Shakira
(Hey!)

(Ay) Let's Not Kill The Karma
(Ay) Let's Not Start A Fight
(Ay) It's Not Worth The Drama
For A Beautiful Liar
(Oh) Can't We Laugh About It (Ha Ha Ha)
(Oh) It's Not Worth Our Time
(Oh) We Can Live Without Him
Just A Beautiful Liar

Beyoncé Recorded This Herself Before Asking Shakira To Sing On It With Her. The Song Has A Latin Flavor And Some Spanish Lyrics That Suited Shakira Well.
