Twenty five years I've been on this earth
|
Not forgetting those months before my birth
|
Months during which if my mother had said I don't want this baby
|
Then I'd be dead
|
|
Job I'm in is a steady one
|
I deliver up parcels weighing a ton
|
I could do better but I know I won't
|
Still with money in the bank and a car
|
Of my own
|
I'm off on the weekend
|
Looking for a new friend
|
Out to make love
|
Heavens above oh lord
|
|
Don't bother me if the sun don't shine
|
It's urine falling remember not mine
|
Girlfriend's ran off with another guy
|
It could have been worse well it could have
|
Been a lie
|
|
I don't like anything td do with drugs
|
Sure they give you a kick but then so do thugs
|
I work as hard as I can each day
|
But when friday arrives and I get my pay
|
I'm off on the weekend looking for a new friend
|
Out to make love
|
Heavens above oh lord
|
I'm off on the weekend looking for a new friend
|
Dying to make love
|
Heavens above oh lord
|
|
Sometimes of an evening instead of sleeping
|
Sometimes of an evening entirely in keeping
|
I'll watch the paint dry all over Sharon Stone
|
|
Now monday mornings the only time in
|
The week when I wish that I could lie-in
|
Then comes Thursday and what do you know
|
Only one more day and away I'll go
|
I'm off on the weekend looking for a new friend
|
Out to make love
|
Heavens above oh lord
|
I'm off on the weekend looking for a new friend
|
Dying to make love
|
Heavens above oh lord
|
|
Keep on working that mojo
|
Drink your whisky a go go
|
I should say that It's coco
|
But It hasn't the bite
|
Tell your papa I don't care
|
Nothing wrong with your red hair
|
If he thinks that it's unfair
|
Then of Course
|
He'd be right
|
He'd be right
|
