Friday

Joe Jackson

Lazy Gilly was a flower child

All the summer

Calmly running wild

She'd be silly and her friends just smiled

Pass the bottle

Wash the pills down - what went wrong

What went wrong



She don't care no more

She don't need to fight it

She don't care no more

She gets paid on Friday



Cooler weather it's not cool to smile |

Pretty colours

Going out of style

It ain't so bad when you get used to it

Once you clock in

You'll take any shit - all right

Ain't that right



She don't care no more

She don't need to fight it

She don't care no more

She gets paid on Friday



Monday morning

Friday's far away

Pray you'll make it

It's a magic day

Bells will ring and you'll go out to play

Spend your money

Pass the bottle

Friday rules

Friday rules OK



Ain't talking 'bout Monday

Ain't talking 'bout Tuesday

Ain't talking 'bout Wednesday

Ain't talking 'bout Thursday

I 'm talking 'bout . . .



She don't care no more

She don't need to fight it

She don't care no more

She gets paid on Friday



She gets paid on Friday, Friday, Friday . . .
