Jacqueline was seventeen, working on a desk |
|
When Ivor peered above her spectacle |
|
Forgot that he had wrecked a girl |
|
Sometime 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're 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 |
|
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 |
