Lyric discussion by marioa73 

"Raoul and the Kings of Spain" is about Roland Orzabal's Spanish heritage (Orzabal's father was of Spanish-Basque descent, and his grandfather was Argentinian). Raoul was actually Roland Orzabal's name for the first two weeks of his life, but his mother renamed him Roland because the family were then living in England. Orzabal named his own first son Raoul.
