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.
[Spoken Verse]
Pass the tequila, Manuel
(Glug, snort)
Listen, gringo, laugh at my lisp and I kill you
I think
This Spanish music
It sets my soul on fire
Lovely señorita
Your eyes are like stars
Your teeth are like pearls
Your ruby lips
