Lyrics

They call this a  
I like to think of it as  
Arriving at the  
I am going it  
Ordering a   pass
Travelling in business  
This is the name of the  

I'm single, bilingual
Single, bilingual

I come to the community
From U.K. p.l.c.
Arriving at my  
there are   greeting me
Staying in a junior  
So there's room to meet and  
and after work   how I feel
'Perdoneme me llamo Neil'

I'm single, bilingual
Single, bilingual

In Brussels, Bonn or Barcelona
I'm in   and quite at home there
'Adelante!' Through the door
'Un momento, por favor'
This is what I get paid for
'Muchas gracias, senor'

I'm a player in the continental game
With unlimited expenses to  
Information's  
Tapping at my PC
That is the   of the game

I'm single, bilingual
Single, bilingual
I'm single, bilingual
Single, bilingual

'Hay una discoteca por acqui?'
Legend

Meaning

Neil has himself provided:

"The narrator is a very glib Euro businessman, a glib Eurocrat who flies business class and likes all his privileges. He tries to pick up chicks at meet 'n' greets. He's pretending to be a sophisticated ladies man: 'Single! Bilingual!'. But he's not really communicating either and he knows it. In actual fact he's a hopeless, tragic wreck."

Vocabulary

Tapping at my PC

That is, typing on his personal computer (probably a laptop). The use of the words "tapping at" rather than "typing on" suggest the narrator's glib (to use Neil's own terminology) or even mildly disdainful attitude toward the activity.
