This world is falling Father hear me, hear me calling I get up six o' clock each morning Put on some coffee, splash some water on my face Fight the traffic, punch the time card Work my body work it to the edge I don't mind working from nine to five 'Cause I got to keep my family fed I'll even work way past midnight, trying to get ahead Oh oh I I, I, I can't wait till the weekend comes That's what I have fun Gonna get down I strut my stuff all over town When the weekend comes (when the weekend comes) Oh, oh, oh when the weekend comes (That's when I) that's when I have my fun I party down! I drag my body up on monday It's still hurting from the partying that I've done But I could never face that work week Without some time to have my fun You see I've got stress (stress), I've got strain (strain), Lord knows I've got some bills I've got to pay That's why I keep my nose to the grindstone My mind's on friday Oh oh I, I can't wait 'till the weekend comes I finally have my fun baby Get down, down Strut my stuff all over down (over down) When the weekend comes Oh, oh, when the weekend comes (That's when I) that's when I have my fun Turn up the music, turn off my mind Kick off my shoes It's party time! Sometimes feel so hard Stuck in my world Isn't strange sending a boy off to die? Sam got his hand hauled in my pocket He keeps reaching deeper all the time My wife, she's got a plastic habit She keeps reaching from the other side Oh, oh, tension keeps on building, building, buiding so high Sometimes I'm afraid of living, too afriad to die
