Franz Ferdinand ist eine Indie-Rockband aus Glasgow, Schottland. Stilistisch wird die Gruppe teilweise dem so genannten britpop  zugerechnet, wobei ihre Musik klare Einflüsse aus dem post-punk  der späten 1970er und dem new wave  der frühen 1980er aufweist.  Als einziges Mitglied der Band besuchte Robert Hardy die Glasgow School of Art.  Ihre ersten Auftritte hatte die Band im Chateau, einer leerstehenden Lagerhalle, die sie selbst zu einem illegalen Treffpunkt von Glasgower Indie-Bands und Kunststudenten gestalteten. 

Franz Ferdinand es una banda de rock formada en Glasgow (Escocia) en 2001.  El grupo escocés toma su nombre del archiduque austrohúngaro Francisco Fernando (Franz Ferdinand en alemán) cuyo asesinato fue la excusa final que llevaría a la Iª Guerra Mundial, la llamada Gran Guerra.   A finales de 2001, Bob estaba sentado en la cocina de Alex. Alex justo había recibido un bajo de parte de su amigo Mick Cooke (Belle &amp; Sebastian), a condición que hiciera &quot;algo útil&quot; con él. Así que Bob aprendió a tocar el bajo y ambos planearon una banda.

Your leather jacket lies in sticky pools of cider blackberry

You glance a ricochet from every alpha male behind me
Eyes 
Like marbles on a washing machine
I wonder
How the boy feels

In the alleyway by Jakey's 
Jack in the sodium light
Yes, I love you 
I mean, I- I mean, I- need to love

Bored upon the overflowing pipes above me
Tonight
I don't mind
Because I never wonder
How the girl feels

King Creole

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.
