Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better: Wikipedia Album Entry
You Could Have It So Much Better is the second studio album by Glaswegian indie rock band Franz Ferdinand that was first released 3 October 2005 in the United Kingdom. Recorded in both the United States and their own studio in Glasgow with producer Rich Costey, the album gave birth to the release of four UK Top 30 singles Do You Want To on 23 August 2005, The Fallen / L. Wells, Walk Away and Eleanor Put Your Boots on. The album became the band's first UK #1 album, and although their debut album was relatively successful in the USA, going platinum and reaching #32, You Could Have It So Much Better managed to reach #8 and earned gold status in the States. The cover design is modeled on Alexander Rodchenko's 1924 portrait of Lilya Brik.

Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better Lyrics
Franz Ferdinand - The Fallen Lyrics
So they say, you're a troubled boy
Just because you like to destroy
All the things that bring the idiots joy
Well, what's wrong with a little destruction
Franz Ferdinand - Fade Together Lyrics
So far away
Come on I'll take you far away
Let's get away
Come on let's make a get away
Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better Lyrics
The last message you sent
Said, I looked really down
That I ought a come over and talk about it
Well, I wasn't down

Franz Ferdinand - Walk Away Lyrics
I swapped my innocence for pride, crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh
Franz Ferdinand - What You Meant Lyrics
As I took a step number four
Into the close of your tenement
You cast your darkened eyes, so low
Said, "We're cold as the step cement"
Franz Ferdinand - Eleanor Put Your Boots On Lyrics
Eleanor put those boots back on
Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
I know it isn't dignified to run
Franz Ferdinand - Well That Was Easy Lyrics
Oh well, that was easy, waiting
Everything's easy now
And the days are, oh, so normal
Franz Ferdinand - You're The Reason I'm Leaving Lyrics
Some granite wall numbs our bones, numbs our all
As we sit on skinny hands nothing to say, nothing at all
I don't know you and I, I don't want to
You're so awkward just like me but I don't care
Franz Ferdinand - Evil And A Heathen Lyrics
Words fall from my mouth
Like plates from shakin' hands
Smash upon the silence
Of the smooth naked canal
Franz Ferdinand - I'm Your Villain Lyrics
You toss in a word
And I'm your villain
I see the passion emerge
And I'm your villain
Franz Ferdinand - This Boy Lyrics
Yeah
It seems this boy bathed in ridicule
Too forward, way too physical
Franz Ferdinand - Do You Want To Lyrics
Well I woke up tonight and said I
I'm gonna make somebody love me
I'm gonna make somebody love me
And now I know, now I know, now I know
Franz Ferdinand - Outsiders Lyrics
It's been some change but we're still outsiders
If everybody's here, then hell knows we ride alone
I've seen some years but you're still my Caesar
With everything I feel, I feel, you've already been here, ooh
