Divine Comedy - Jackie Lyrics

  • And if one day I should become
  • A singer with a Spanish bum
  • Who sings for women of great virtue
  • I'd sing to them with a guitar
  • I'd borrow from a coffee bar

  • Surrounded by some chinamen
  • I'd sing a song that I sang then
  • About the time they called me Jackie
  • If I could be for only an hour
  • If I could be for an hour every day
  • If I could be for just one little hour
  • Cute - in a stupid-assed way
  • Now tell me wouldn't it be nice
