1. JACQUELINE

acqueline 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
Yeah, I'm alive
Oh, I'm alive
Oh, I'm alive

And how I know it's you
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

It's always better on holiday
So much better on holiday
That's why we only work when
We need the money

3. TAKE ME OUT

So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here, you leave me broken shattered I lie
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot then we can die
I know I won’t be leaving here with you

I say, "Don't you know?"
You say, "You don't know"
I say, "Take me out"
I say, "You don't show"
Don't move time is slow
I say, "Take me out"

Well I say, "You don't know"
You say, "You don't go"
I say, "Take me out"
If I move this could die
And eyes move this could die
I want you to, to take me out

I know I won't be leaving here
(With you)
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
(With you)
I know I won't be leaving here with you

Well I say, "Don't you know?"
You say, "You don't know"
I say, "Take me out"
If I wane this could die
I wait this could die
I want you to take me out

If I move this could die
Eyes move this can die
Come on, take me out

I know I won't be leaving here
(With you)
I know I won't be leaving here
(With you)
I know I won't be leaving here
(With you)
I know I won't be leaving here with you


4. THE DARK OF THE MATINEE

You take your white finger
Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of my blazer
Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties and I'm
Not to look at you in the shoe, but the eyes, find the eyes

Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You'll find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee
It's better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee is mine, yes, it's mine

I time every journey to bump into you, accidentally
I charm you and tell you of the boys I hate, all the girls I hate
All the words I hate, all the clothes I hate
How I'll never be anything I hate

You smile mention something that you like
Or how you'd have a happy life if you did the things you like

Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You'll find me in the matinee, dark of the matinee
It's better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee is mine, yes, it's mine

So I'm on BBC2 now, telling Terry Wogan how I made it and
What I made is unclear now, but his deference is and his laughter is
My words and smile are so easy now
Yes, it's easy now, yes, it's easy now

Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You'll find me in the matinee, dark of the matinee
It's better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee

Well, find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You'll find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee
Better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee is mine, yes, it's mine


5. AUF ACHSE

You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you

And you see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you

She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done

Now, you wish she'd never
Come back here again
Oh, never
Come back here again

You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you

And you see her, you can't touch her
But you hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
And you want to, but she won't let you

She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done, boy
She's not so special so look what you've done

And now, I'm nailed above you gushing from my side
It's with your sins that you have killed me thinking of your sins I die
Thinking how you'd let them touch you how you'd never realize
That I'm ripped and hang forsaken knowing never will I rise again

You still see her
Oh, you hear her
You want her
Oh, you want to

And you see her
And you still hear her
And you want her
And you still want to

7. THIS FIRE

Eyes, boring a way to me
Paralyze, controlling completely
Now there is a fire in me
A fire that burns

This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city

This fire is out of control
I’m gonna burn this city, burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn it, I'll burn it, I'll, I'll, I'll burn it down

Eyes, burning a way through me
Overwhelm, destroying so sweetly
Now there is a fire in me
A fire that burns

This fire is out of control

This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city

This fire is out of control

And I'm, I'm out of control and I burn

Oh, how I burn for you
Burn, oh, how I burn for you
Burn, how I burn
How I burn, oh, how I

This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city

This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn this city, burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm gonna burn it, I'll burn it, I'll, I'll, I'll burn it down


8. DARTS OF PLEASURE

You are the latest contender
You are the one to remember
You are the villain who sends a
Line of dark fantastic passion

I know that you will surrender
I know that you will surrender
I want this fantastic passion
We'll have fantastic passion

You can feel my lips undress your eyes
Undress your eyes, undress your eyes
Words of love and words so leisured
Words are poisoned darts of pleasure
Die, and so you die

You are the latest adventurer
You're an emotion avenger
You are the devil that sells a
Line of dark fantastic passion

I know that you will surrender
I know that you will surrender
I want this fantastic passion
We'll have fantastic passion

You can feel my lips undress your eyes
Undress your eyes, undress your eyes
Skin can feel my lips they tingle tense anticipation
This one is an easy one, feel the word and melt upon it
Words of love and words so leisured
Words are poisoned darts of pleasure
Die, and so you die

Ich heisse super fantastisch
Ich trinke schampus mit lachsfisch
Ich heisse super fantastisch

Ich heisse super fantastisch
Ich trinke schampus mit lachsfisch
Ich heisse super fantastisch

Ich heisse super fantastisch
Ich trinke schampus mit lachsfisch
Ich heisse super fantastisch

10. COME ON HOME

Although my lover lives in a place that I can't live
I kind of find I like a life this lonely
It rips and pierces me in places I can't see
I love the rip of nerves, the rip that wakes me
So I'm dissatisfied, I love to satisfy
I love to feel as though there's more that I need

So come on home
So come on home
So come on home, home

You're where you want to be, I'm where I want to be
Come on we're chasing everything we've ever wanted
Replace you easily, replace pathetically
I flirt with every flighty thing that falls my way
But how I needed you when I needed you
Let's not forget we are so strong, so bloody strong

Come on home
So come on home
So come on home, home

Blue light falls upon your perfect skin
Falls and you draw back again
Falls and this is how I fell
And I cannot forget and I cannot forget

Come on home
So come on home
But don't forget to leave


11. 40'

As I glanced once upon the foam
40 feet beneath my feet
The coldest calm falls through the molten veins
Cooling all the blood to slush, congeals around the brain

Oh, la la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
Oh, and forty feet remain

Salt scales upon my drying arms
Burn my back beneath the sun
But I am cold beneath the burning rays
Looking down, looking down, down, down again

Oh, la la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
Oh, and forty feet remain

La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
La la lala, la la lala, la la lala, la lala la
Oh, and forty feet remain
