"Hooray, hooray
the bullfighter dies
hooray, hooray
the bullfighter dies
and nobody cries
because we all want the bull to survive"


Hooray, hooray
Gaga in Malaga
The bullfighter dies
no mercy in Murcia
Hooray, hooray
mental in Valencia
The bullfighter dies
then someone tells you
And nobody cries

Nobody cries
"hooray, hooray
Because we all want the bull to survive

No mercy in Murcia

Mental in Valencia

Then someone told you and you cheer
 
Hooray, hooray

Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies

Nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive
