El Buitre – Emilio Butragueño

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Centrepiece of the Vulture’s cohorts
As La Quinta del Buitre they would gel
Introduced by Alfredo Di Stefano
With Sanchis, Vazquez, Pardez, Michel

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 A minute to hammer past Pat Jennings
Four blitzed against the Dynamite Danes
Not since Eusebio, though could have been five
Had the Butcher of Bilbao let go the chains

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Much-admired as one of Europe’s most potent
Never quite able to inspire Spain
Link up with Hugo Sanchez led to a Mexican sunset
Where the Gentleman of the pitch he became

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Number 7
