The Bullfighter Dies Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mad in Madrid, ill in Seville
Lonely in Barcelona
Then someone told you
And you cheered
[Chorus]
"Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
And nobody cries, nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive"
[Verse 2]
Gaga in Málaga, no mercy in Murcia
Mental in Valencia
Then someone tells you
And you cheer
[Chorus]
"Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
And nobody cries, nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive"
Mad in Madrid, ill in Seville
Lonely in Barcelona
Then someone told you
And you cheered
[Chorus]
"Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
And nobody cries, nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive"
[Verse 2]
Gaga in Málaga, no mercy in Murcia
Mental in Valencia
Then someone tells you
And you cheer
[Chorus]
"Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies
And nobody cries, nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive"
