    Lyrics
    Spanish songs in Andalucia
    The shooting sites in the days of '39
    Oh, please, leave the ventana open
    Fredrico Lorca is dead and gone
    Bullet holes in the cemetery walls
    The black cars of the Guardia Civil
    Spanish bombs on the Costa Rica
    I'm flying in on a DC 10 tonight
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    Spanish weeks in my disco casino
    The freedom fighters died upon the hill
    They sang the red flag
    They wore the black one
    But after they died it was Mockingbird Hill
    Back home the buses went up in flashes
    The Irish tomb was drenched in blood
    Spanish bombs shatter the hotels
    My senorita's rose was nipped in the bud
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    The hillsides ring with "Free the people"
    Or can I hear the echo from the days of '39?
    With trenches full of poets
    The ragged army, fixin' bayonets to fight the other line
    Spanish bombs rock the province
    I'm hearing music from another time
    Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava
    I'm flying in on a DC 10 tonight
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
    yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
    Spanish songs in Andalucia, Mandolina, oh mi corazon
    Spanish songs in Granada, oh mi corazon

    My favorite Clash song. My dad and I used to fight a lot in my teenage years but everytime we were alone together, we would listen to this. I still remember being 5 and singing the chorus at the top of my lungs with him in the car. Our family is Spanish but I never connected the dots until now. Dad passed 5 months ago, I hope he knows that everytime I play this, I’m thinking of him and wishing we could sing this at the top of our lungs for one last time. Miss you Reginaldo Peres, you’ll always be my Spanish bomb.

    My favourite song by The Clash. Contrasts contemporary Spain (with its beaches, casinos, and many tourists) with its violent history (a murderous authoritarian successfully coming to power) and instability hidden just under the surface, in which Western tourists are unaware or ignorant to the countries disturbing politics. The song mixes unsettling political and historical references ("Federico Lorca is dead and gone" "The freedom fighters died upon the hill") with trivial and superficial phrases ("Spanish weeks in my disco casino" "I'm flyin' in on a DC 10 tonight") and nonsensical Spanish lyrics. The songs upbeat positive tune also contrasts with the stark lyrics.

    One of the last times I was at the Rock Hall they had a room dedicated to The Clash. It was amazing. Had Joe's Type Writer he wrote these lyrics on. The Clash will always have a place in my heart. A positive band for a negative teenage mind.

    This song reminds me of my first ever trip to Spain, when I spent a few days in Granada. Reading Gerald Brennan’s “Face of Spain” on the plane there, going to Lorca’s old house, drinking cans of Cruzcampo in that little square opposite the Alhambra and a group of locals taking pity on me in a bar because I was by myself and inviting me out for drinks later, happy days!!

    I think this song exemplifies the importance of music in communicating information and the emotions associated with them. I had next to no knowledge about the Spanish Civil War nor the other uprisings mentioned in the song, and it was this song that pushed me to research them. And I’m very glad, being American the Spanish Civil War very much echos the state of my country today.
