How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

This song seems to be written in a very sarcastic or joking tone towards the Spanish. It is especially evident in the way the vocals are delivered, which is very rhaspy whispering, snorting, and a bad Spanish accent.

It is also the first Pink Floyd song credited to David Gilmour alone.
