Friday night, I¡¯m on my way home
|
They oughtta make work a crime
|
I¡¯m home for the weekend
|
Gonna make the most of my time
|
There¡¯s a rock and roll singer
|
On the television
|
Givin¡¯ up his music, gonna take up religion
|
|
Abandoned rock and roll to try to save his soul
|
|
Saturday night, got a gig with the band
|
Playin¡¯ the electric guitar
|
Someday, I¡¯m gonna make it
|
Gonna be a super-duper star
|
Buy a big flashy car
|
And a house for my ma
|
The big break better happen soon
|
Cuz I¡¯m pushin¡¯ twenty-one
|
|
Just like Cinderella,
|
when she couldn¡¯t go to the ball
|
(a voice said), ¡°I¡¯m your fairy manager,
|
you shall play Carnegie Hall.¡±
|
Gotta give up your day job
|
To become a heart throb
|
I may go far
|
If I smash my guitar
|
|
Away for the weekend, I gotta play some one-night stands
|
Six for the taxman and one for the band
|
Back in the studio to make our latest number one
|
Take 276, you know this used to be fun...
|
|
Sunday mornin¡¯, I just got home
|
Six and the birds are singin¡¯
|
I need a drink, and my clothes are wet
|
Ooh and my ears are still ringin¡¯
|
There¡¯s a rock and roll singer
|
Boppin¡¯ on the TV
|
He used to be a preacher
|
But now he sings in a major key
|
|
Amended his decision to the new religion
|
