about

Hemingway became enamored with bullfighting. Having experienced some 1500 Bull Fights he wrote two books on the subject. The nobility of the creature and its death are in view. It captivated Hemingway. A microcosm of the world was captured in those moments. Making meaning of it all is the essence of his effort.

lyrics

Bull Fight

Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go tonight.
Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go watch them fight.
Death in the Afternoon, is such a bloody sight.
Speaks to our mortality. Something here ain’t right.

Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go tonight.
Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go watch them fight.
Passions are aroused; both for and against.
Searching for the meaning, and of life’s essence.
___
Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go tonight.
Let’s go to a bullfight baby, let’s go watch them fight.
