A Month of Saturdays Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Five o'clock Friday
All my work is done
I can hardly wait
Let's take the server
Let's sling it around
Let's make it taste so sweet
I want to take all the Saturdays
I want to stay up late
I want to stomp my feet on the ground
I want to celebrate

[Chorus]
A month of Saturdays, Saturdays
A month of Saturday, Saturdays, ah

[Verse 2]
I'm tired of waiting for the weekend to begin
(Sunday, Monday, Tuesday)
I'm tired of punching in
(Wednesday, Thursday)
Give me a holiday that never ends
(Friday, Saturday)
Give me a weekend, weekend, weekend
Give me a weekend, weekend
[Chorus]
A month of Saturdays, Saturdays
I'm talking Saturday, Saturdays, ah
Shout

[Outro]
Give me a weekend, weekend, weekend

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
