She takes the bus ride down Kinsella Street
|
Past The Queens Head and The Barrel Of Wheat
|
Rides the top deck 'til she'll reach the parade
|
And the penny arcade
|
|
Puts on an apron at the foot of the stairs
|
And a band of gold that ties back her hair
|
She bought a magazine about the stars on TV
|
She's gonna read with her tea
|
|
And she might share some spare conversation
|
About the weather and the world far outside
|
As she lays out the place mats
|
And brushes the doormat
|
And swings the sign around to open the cafe
|
|
And Mondays and Tuesdays and Wednesdays' a drag
|
Thursdays and Friday's so sad, so sad
|
But come Saturday girl, I'm on top of the world
|
The moment she steps through that door
|
|
She's got a smile like a rainbow in the grey
|
And a laugh that'd make a misery's day
|
And all the customers they think she's a hoot
|
Yeah and the boys think she's cute
|
|
And when we close up
|
|
She sings along to the jukebox
|
|
"I just need somebody, I need someone to love"
|
And then she climbs on the table top
|
Swinging her dishmop
|
And I wish I had the courage and I could say
|
|
Mondays and Tuesdays and Wednesdays' a drag
|
Thursdays and Friday's so sad, so sad
|
She's my Saturday girl, I'm on top of the world
|
Yeah it's the one day I feel like a king
|
|
It's Saturday, it's Saturday
|
Saturday, it's Saturday, it's Saturday
|
The moment she steps through that doorˇ¦..
