[Verse]
A E
You stumble out of bed and go to
G D E
work at half past seven
A E
at night you fix some food and watch
G D E
TV until eleven
A E
and inbetween your coffeebreaks you
G D E
try to earn a fortune
A E G D Dbm F#
'cause you are daddy's pride and joy
The travelagents starts to advertise
on new years day
eat mustard in Dijon or take a swim
in Pocketbay
your boss is breathing down your neck
you need to get away
and it will soon be holiday
[Chorus]
Bm E
With pockets full of cash and friends
A D
with names like Jack and Nash
Bm E
you book the cheapest trip you can
A (D - F#)
and then you're off to wonderland
Bm E
and you get pissed on your way there
A D
and make rude comments to a queer
Bm E
but Jackie throws him off the boat
A D E Dbm F#
a french policeman takes a note
[Verse]
Your friends at work all envy you
because you've seen the world
you've got some news from Athens
and you claim you've kissed a french girl
you tell them that you're half a man
without all new impressions
you need your kicks like they need air
[Chorus]
Bm E
With pockets full of cash and friends
A D
with names like Jack and Nash
Bm E
you book the cheapest trip you can
A (D - F#)
and then you're off to wonderland
Bm E
and you get stoned when you arrive
A D
and Jackie doubts that you're alive
Bm E
he digs a grave with his own hands
A D E Dbm F#
a dutch policeman stops his plans
Bm E
With pockets full of cash and friends
A D
with names like Jack and Nash
Bm E
you book the cheapest trip you can
A (D - F#)
and then you're off to wonderland
Bm E
and you get stoned when you arrive
A D
and Jackie doubts that you're alive
Bm E
he digs a grave with his own hands
A D E Dbm F#
a dutch policeman stops his plans
[Outro]
La la la la la la la... (chorus)
