Saturday Night - John Waite

Workin' overtime

Just to keep myself from getting sacked

Well I don’t like my job

Tell the boss to shove it

I ain’t goin' back

Just like Gene Vincent

I’m longing to prove

I know what I need this time

Me and my girl together

Yeah

Saturday night

Oh yeah

Saturday night

Lookin' at my watch

Tappin' my fingers

Wishin' time would fly

Gonna look so sharp

She and I will turn some heads as we walk by

And just like Vermeer

I wait for still life to move out of my mind

Tonight

I might suddenly all feel better

Saturday night

Oh yeah

Saturday night

Ow

And I feel like the rain on the edge of a rhyme

On the streets I’ll shine

Forever in an instant

Saturday night

Oh yeah

Saturday night

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday night

Crossin' off the days in my brain

Gonna get it good

Gonna get it right

Ain’t it just like Verlaine

To be dancin' in the streets

I know what I need this time

Me and my girl together

Oh yeah Saturday night

Oh yeah Saturday night

Saturday night

Oh yeah

Alright

Alright

Oh yeah

Alright

Alright

Oh oh oh

Oh

Saturday night
