Why am I in Spain 

It is probably for the same reason 

Than you are in Spain 

Unlike you I do not have Spanish blood 

Everybody around me is English 

But I am told that I look Spanish 

I love the sun and the pace of life 

And this makes me even more unhappy with England 

My England is an England long lost 

Nothing pleases my eye 

It is a corrupted soil 

I do not recognise it anymore

Spain is not perfect 

Far from it 

It has been spoiled 

By those who wish to spoil it 

There is decay but not the decay of England 

And that is why I prefer Spain
