Is it "you've got an OK jacket..." or "you got an OK jackie..."
The jackie one doesn't make sense but it was the first official lyrics i found on the song back in October.

Live performances will vary LYRICS!!
'ACRYLIC'. I think we've got over the 'YOU'RE OK JACKIE' bit. BUT, when the album is released, this will become the 'INDUSTRY STANDARD' for consistancy, hopefully with a lyric sheet !!
Try "I only wish you had the songs to back-up your talk of so long'.
I think Liam mentioned on one blog (probably American) "Sorry to p*ss on your chips, but it's not about a guy called 'Jackie'"

my studio version that i have now, used to have demo i think.
Your just like plasticine being molded into a libertine dreamer I feel so sorry for you If you were 13 I’d let you off but your not you should know better Gather my thoughts on a notepad with a parker pen and write you a letter but, Theres not enough paper in the world Theres not enough paper in the world have you heard all your friends go
All the words they seem to know All the word in your songs go
you got an ok jacket but, you got no spine Please vacate this city of mine
I only wish you had the songs to back up your talk of so long But we know that’s not the case, rather show your face In an ancient bar that nobody goes in Because they serve some standard gin Nobody goes in there Did you win? Did they ask? Well no one cares
All the words they seem to know All the words in your songs go
you got an ok jacket but, You got no spine Please vacate this city of mine

it's funny how many people debate about it being 'dreamer'
when it's clearly not...he's just slurring the word 'dream' a little

And I'd say it's sub-standard gin? Anyone else think that?
