Wake up in a jail on Saturday and I think I'm losing my mind
I don't know what's going on and I lost track of all time
My head is heavy and my thoughts unclear
You know I'm feeling really sick
I don't even know why I've been nicked
And then the cell opens up and the police say
'You've been a bad man, we're gonna lock you away'
'You've been running around, starting fights'
- But that's what we do on Friday night
I tried to explain it was in the name of fun
You know I get real p***** when the week is done
He told me to shut it, he said not to budge
'On Monday you can tell it all to the judge'
Chorus:
And so look at me now
Locked away, treated like a criminal
They say I won't go far
But coming next Friday, I'll be sitting at the bar
On Monday morning I was scared as hell
I didn't know what to expect
My lawyer said everything was fine
And he was gonna save my neck
My heart nearly stopped when the charged were dropped
There was no witness to my crime
They had no choice, they had to let me go
And then the cell opens up and the police say
'You've been a bad man, we're gonna lock you away'
'You've been running around, starting fights'
- But that's what we do on Friday night
I tried to explain it was in the name of fun
You know I get real p***** when the week is done
He told me to shut it, he said not to budge
'On Monday you can tell it all to the judge'
Chorus
Chorus
... Coming next Friday, I'll be sitting at the bar (3x)
I don't know what's going on and I lost track of all time
My head is heavy and my thoughts unclear
You know I'm feeling really sick
I don't even know why I've been nicked
And then the cell opens up and the police say
'You've been a bad man, we're gonna lock you away'
'You've been running around, starting fights'
- But that's what we do on Friday night
I tried to explain it was in the name of fun
You know I get real p***** when the week is done
He told me to shut it, he said not to budge
'On Monday you can tell it all to the judge'
Chorus:
And so look at me now
