Deer Tick
She’s Not Spanish
[Verse 1]
I went out walking and you were not there
They say you look familiar, famous and destined to win
And they say you look Spanish with your long dark hair
Well I may agree, but you do not see what I do
[Chorus]
And I know you’re alone
While you wait for me at home
But I’ll make you see
You’re not Spanish to me
[Verse 2]
And I know that it’s hard to see a change in me
But I’d rather be home, in a kitchen with nothing to do
And a lie is a failure and I’d fail if I say
That I know the truth, that I have the answers for you
[Chorus]
But you know I’m alone
While you wait for me at home
But I’ll make them see
She’s not Spanish to me
[Verse 3]
So, Lord, let me dream and draw pictures of her
I’m faithful you know, the clarity carried me through
And truth spoke in anger is a means to an end
Thread from the spool, drawing me back home to you
[Chorus]
But you know I’m alone
While you wait for me at home
But I’ll make you see
You’re not Spanish to me
