Jacqueline Lyrics - Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand

Jacqueline was seventeen 

Working on a desk 

When Ivor 

Peered above a spectacle 

Forgot that he had wrecked a girl 

Sometimes these eyes 

Forget the face they're peering from 

When the face they peer upon 

Well you know 

That face as I do 

And how in the return of the gaze 

She can return you the face 

That you are staring from 

It's always better on holiday 

So much better on holiday 

That's why we only work when 

We need the money

It's always better on holiday 

So much better on holiday 

That's why we only work when 

We need the money 

Gregor was down again 

Said come on, kick me again 

Said I'm so drunk 

I don't mind if you kill me 

Come on you, gutless 

I'm alive 

I'm alive 

I'm alive 

And how I know it 

But for chips and for freedom 

I could die 

It's always better on holiday 

So much better on holiday 

That's why we only work when we need the money

It's always better on holiday 

So much better on holiday 

That's why we only work when we need the money 

It's always better on holiday 

So much better on holiday 

That's why we only work when we need the money
