In Shakira's song Rabiosa, she expresses her desire to be wild and free, and to be loved and desired by her partner. She sings about having a line of admirers, and wanting to be loved and taken away by her partner. She also sings about wanting to be kissed and caressed, and to be taken away in a passionate embrace. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Rabiosa, yo soy rabiosa" which translates to "I am wild". The song is a passionate plea for her partner to take her away and to love her with the same intensity that she loves them.

I have a pile of crazy men waiting in line
I have men getting into trouble
And I want you stuck there
Because I want you at five hundred and lost
Lies are shared with you
Because that turn is not for me
Because I want you tied up here
Chorus 1
Hey babe, drive yourself crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey daddy, drive me crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Rabid, rabid, rabid, rabid
I am rabid, rabid, rabid, rabid
Verse 2
Rabid
You have a lot of crazy people waiting in line
Look at men gotten into trouble
And you want me stuck there
Because you have me at five hundred and lost
Lies are shared with you
But that turn is not for me
Because you want me tied up here
Chorus 2
Hey babe, drive yourself crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey daddy, drive me crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey babe, drive yourself crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey daddy, drive me crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Verse 3
Rabid, rabid, rabid
You are rabid
I am rabid
Chorus 3
Hey babe, drive yourself crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey daddy, drive me crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey babe, drive yourself crazy
Scratch my back
And bite my mouth
Hey daddy, drive me crazy
Scratch my back
And bite your mouth
