“Cordoba” came from Eno reading Hugo’s Latin-American Spanish In Three Months.

[Verse 1]
A man was sleeping under a tree
He wrote to me from Cordoba
After the theatre, we went to his house
He's a very generous Cordoban
We waited at the door, but he didn't come
According to his father, he is very ill
[Verse 2]
There was a long line of cars in front of me
I came as soon as I could
I left without paying, a suitcase under my arm
I won't see you until Sunday
I'll come as soon as I can

You'll have to wait at the station

[Outro]
You start to walk towards the station
I'll walk towards the bus
You walk towards the station
I'll walk towards the bus
You walk towards the station
I'll walk towards the bus
You walk towards the station
I'll walk towards the bus
