Pilar (Things Here Are Different) |
| It’s been five years since the man has died |
| Don’t think the people have changed |
| We can put up posters, we can riot in the streets |
| Still a woman can’t make ends meet |
| So why don’t you do something about it? |
| Things don’t happen to you, you make them happen |
| She laughed |
| You don’t understand |
| You’re from another land |
| Things here are different |
| Here in sunny Spain, the widows all wear black |
| To show their respect and their sorrow |
| Here in Spain, so simple is our life |
| You’re either a whore, a mother, or a wife |
| So why don’t you do something about it? |
| Things don’t happen to you, you make them happen |
| She laughed |
| You don’t understand |
| You’re from another land |
| Things here are different |
| We’ve seen your freedom |
| We get your TV shows |
| So simple, so inviting |
| I thought I’d like to know |
| I’m the talk of the town |
| I’m the shame of my family |
| Your wonderful freedom |
| Look where it’s got me |
| So why don’t you do something about it? |
| Things here are different |
