La Habanera Lyrics by Yello

La Habanera Lyrics

    This is havana
    The night before the revolution
    Carlos romero pambo plays the symphony
    For latin piano
    Popping corks and blasting bullets
    La habanera dances in the streets
    And like every night
    Pedro comacho sells peanuts
    Outside the tropicana club

    Don't ask me why
    Life is one day
    La habanera
    La habanera
    She dances on the street at night
    La habanera
    La habanera
    She is ready for a fight

    Don't ask my why

    Pedro comacho
    The former informer of the secret police
    Is still standing outside the club
    Pretending to be blind
    He watches the last plane to miami
    Disappearing in a flaming purple sky
    Now he knows
    He has been left behind

    Don't ask me why
    Life is one day
    La habanera
    La habanera
    She dances under street lights
    La habanera
    La habanera
    She is ready for a fight
