Come, baby
It's time to pray
Come it's time to pray for the weekend, babe
Come it's time to jump in at the deep end, babe
It opens up it's jaws panting like a hound
So, we'll pick the fleurs du mal and we'll bind it a crown
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make you claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
It hovers like an eagle, it's growling like a beast
Demanding our sacrifice, but offering a feast
It's calling for our blood, we must quench it's thirst
The night is calling all its dusky children back to work
(But first)
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make you claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, ooh, oooh...
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, make you claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Let's pray that the weekend will thrill us, babe
Let's pray that the weekend won't kill us, babe
Hooray!
