Weekend (5 Long Days) Lyrics - Wildhearts

Monday comes crashing in and all the world looks grey again 

faces on the train seem grim when yesterday the same were smiling 

another week to kill, another week where time stands still 

and shuffling masses feel the chill that comes with their routine 

the working scene... 

crawled out of bed and then I turned on MTV again 

to watch the same songs I can't stand: they sing of love and being happy 

look there's another one that sounds just like the other one 

the video without a song is being a famous whore 

frustrates me more 

CHORUS: 

but at the weekend, well everything will be okay 

at the weekend (darling) 

at the weekend, I'll tell the world that for five long days I've been wanting to say 

(wanting to say, yeah yeah) 

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna ride upon a five mile tide of surprise and oblivion 

or rain or shine I'm waiting at the frontline 

I need it, I need it, like you would not believe it 

and I'll be dying to change, I'll be dying change my ways 

'cos I've been dry for 5 long days 

I'll put the world to right, I'll fly like Superman in flight 

I'll eat the day and drink the night and everyone will be there with me 

this week I've seen it through on auto-pilot just like you 

and now there's nothing left to do 'cept anything at all 

let's hit the wall 

CHORUS 

At the weekend, baby baby at the weekend 

at the weekend, at the weekend 

at the weekend, baby baby at the weekend 

at the weekend... rock, rock, rock, roll 

CHORUS
