You are a car
You are a hospital
I’d walk to hell and back
To see you smile
On saturday
You are a star
You are a sea of air
I play great keyboards
Of horses’ teeth
On saturday
On saturday
I’d like to tell you
How i feel
I’ll probably keep it
‘til saturday
Oh saturday, saturday
Oh saturday, saturday
Oh saturday, saturday
Oh saturday, saturday
Oh saturday, saturday
Don’t try asking
Cause I never know what to say
Except just everything
A few minutes later in the day
How come everybody else seems so happy
And has intelligent things to say
Cause you know that isn’t me
I think I’d be happy if it was a Saturday
And yeah if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be ok
Cause then I would start
To try to find a way to say
Hey there you are
I need to find a way to be and sound smart
I need to find a way but man it’s so hard
I need to think it’s just not anything will do
I need to think this time
Just time for me and you
To be a phrase that I would always use
In the context like I belong to you
And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be ok
And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better than it was today, is today
I would surely say that
That I’d be here for you
And I hope that you’d be too
And I’ll tell the truth
when I say that I need you
Yeah I do
But I know you might not come
But I need you everywhere
Take a breath and close my eyes
And just think about this and say
I need you please to save me
I wanna be your baby
I wanna see you and me
Together this Saturday
And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be ok
And yeah if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better than it was today, is today
And I would surely say
All the times I’ve been afraid
Well I’m gonna make it this Saturday
i don’t want to hear that din
it’s started again and i am afraid
i don’t want to hear that noise
my dad is a void and speech is a choice
i don’t want to prod that sore
you’re starting to bore be down to my core
i don’t want to hear that thing it’s started
again and i am irate
saturday saturday all alone
i pray for no one’s call
my day my day on my own
i ask for nothing more
i’ve waited all the week for saturday
when no one’s at my door
i waited long and lonely days to find my
hiding from the world
i don’t want to join your throng
you say that you’re strong
but i think you’re wrong
i don’t want to be the same
why do you disdain
when for this i am
all alone again
I’m good to go
And I’m going nowhere fast
It could be worse
It could be taking you there with me
I’m good to go
But it looks like I’m still on my own
I’m good to go
For something golden
Though the motions I’ve been going through have failed
And I’m closing on potential towards the wall
At a 100 miles an hour
When I say
Two more weeks
My foot is in the door (yeah)
I can’t sleep
In the wake of Saturday (Saturday)
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Pete and I attacked
And lost the story
Oh we promised them decisions
The mass of youthful innocence
And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived more than an hour (more than an hour)
When I say
Two more weeks
My foot is in the door (yeah)
I can’t sleep
In the wake of Saturday (Saturday)
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived
And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived
Two more weeks
My foot is in the door
Me and Pete
In the wake of Saturday
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
Saturday
Saturday began just the same as other days
But ended up different in many ways
Love is in my world since Saturday
Mornin’ came but somehow it didn’t seem the same
The sadness of Friday had somehow changed
To the happy sounds of Saturday
Saturday, ever-loving Saturday
I whistle to bluebirds
I tried to tell them how you brought me sunshine
My head’s filled with new words
That sing to the sounds of happy day after Friday
(*) Come and see the flowers of love she gave to me
The touches of laughter and harmony
To the happy sounds of Saturday
Saturday, ever-loving Saturday
My head’s full of new words
Sing to the sounds of the day after Friday
Day after Friday
Repeat (*)
Saturday, Saturday, ever-loving Saturday
Saturday began just the same as other days
But ended up different in many ways
Love is in my world since saturday
Mornin’ came but somehow it didn’t seem the same
The sadness of friday had somehow changed
To the happy sounds of saturday
Saturday, ever-loving saturday
I whistle to bluebirds
I tried to tell them how you brought me sunshine
My head’s filled with new words
That sing to the sounds of happy day after friday
(*) come and see the flowers of love she gave to me
The touches of laughter and harmony
To the happy sounds of saturday
Saturday, ever-loving saturday
My head’s full of new words
Sing to the sounds of the day after friday
Day after friday
Repeat (*)
Saturday, saturday, ever-loving saturday

Just gonna chill tonight
With you by my side
And look into your eyes
We gonna mellow out
Lay back on the couch
And maybe just unwind
And we don’t care about what others might say
That we don’t never ever go anyplace
‘Cause we’re all that we need
And that’s where we want to be
‘Cause we’re so, so, so much in love
And that’s the way love flows
That’s the way it goes
On a saturday night (Saturday, S, S, S, Saturday)
That’s the way love flows
Everybody knows
Couldn’t be more right
(Saturday, S, S, S, Saturday)
Maybe take a ride
By the oceanside
And watch the sun go down
Play the radio
Jam to somethin’ slow
Hey, tell me how that sounds
And as the night takes over the day
Let’s initiate the love that we’ll make
And that’s just what we’ll do
‘Cause we’re into me and you
Because we’re so, so, so much in love
HOOK
And as the night takes over the day
Let’s initiate the love that we’ll make
And that’s just what we’ll do
‘Cause we’re into me and you
‘Cause we’re so, so, so much, so much in love
HOOK 3 times
I can’t wait
I can’t wait
Tired of working, tired of thinking
Don’t wanna read no books
I can’t believe
I’m sitting here at home waiting for the weekend to come
I need some excitement
I put on my clothes and go out with my friends and look
For something on the other side of town
I gotta find a place where I get down
The bass is pumping, music’s playing all night long
Hey Mr. DJ won’t you play my favourite song
So I can feel the beat and dance until the dawn
Why don’t you turn the volume up, lets get it on
Can’t wait til Saturday
I just wanna party and I just wanna play
Call me on Friday
We can have some fun and just get away
Can’t wait ‘til Saturday
I just wanna party and I just wanna play
Call me on Friday
Gonna move my body
Wish I could go out every night and then sleep until way past 2
I can’t believe there’s so much work to do
I guess I got to wait the whole way through
Try something more on to get my groove on
Make sure I’m looking cool
Tomorrow’s gonna be a great night out
Gonna hit the club and just hang out
The bass is pumping, music’s playing all night long
Hey Mr. DJ won’t you play my favourite song
So I can feel the beat and dance until the dawn
Why don’t you turn the volume up, lets get it on
Can’t wait ‘til Saturday
I just wanna party and I just wanna play
Call me on Friday
We can have some fun and just get away
I just can’t wait ‘til Saturday
Can’t wait ‘til Saturday
I just wanna party and I just wanna play
Call me on Friday, gonna move my body
Here we go

On Saturday I know that you’re coming up to see me
When I go away things will change
And you’ll never know it was easy
It won’t help pretending that we’ll stay close
I can’t help thinking that
I try to pretend that it’s your loss
And I never know, oh I’ll never know if it will work
There’s no better time
She’s still thinking I’m too far away
Understanding why she’s not thinking I’m a fool to wait
And I left her today
And I left her today
Come Sunday I’ll see that one day you’ll rescue me
And when I leave again I’ll feel strange
And I’ll never know, oh I’ll never know if you’re in love again
I can’t stop being a fool for you
I won’t help thinking that
Still I am falling for her and she did too
Oh I’ll never know, oh I’ll never know if I’m in love
There’s no better time
She’s still thinking I’m too far away
Understanding why she’s not thinking I’m a fool to wait
But I left her today
There’s no better time
She’s still thinking I’m too far away
Understanding why she’s not thinking I’m a fool to wait
But I left her today
