If we tell you that you've got two days to live Then don't complain, 'cos that's one more than you'd get in Zaire So don't hang around and be foolish Do something constructive with your weekend From Monday morning I work for Friday nights Collect my wages, then try to paint on the smell of soap 'Cause tonight I get ready early Score what I need and go pick a girl up It seems like ages since we had some fun Here comes the weekend - I get to see the girls Long live the weekend, the weekend is here (The weekend starts here) Everything feels right now I know why I'm alive now Everything else is a lie now Now I know why I'm here Here comes the weekend I'm gonna do my head Long live the weekend The weekend is dead
