Something For The Weekend

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

She said "There's something in the woodshed

And I can hear it breathing

It's such an eerie feeling, darling."

He said "There's nothing in the woodshed -

It's your imagination

End of the conversation, darling."

Something in his heart told him to come clean

He was not who he claimed to be

Something in his genes told him to pretend

'Twas something for the weekend

But she said "There's something in the woodshed

I know because I saw it

I can't simply ignore it, darling."

So he said "Now baby, don't be stupid

Get this into your sweet head

There ain't nothing in the woodshed, except maybe some wood."

Something in his heart told him to come clean

He was not who he claimed to be

Something in his jeans told him to pretend

'Twas something for the weekend

"I'll go all the way with you, if you'll only do the same for me- go and see

If it's nothing like you say, then you can have your wicked waywith me"

He went down to the woodshed

They came down hard on his head

Gagged and bound and left for dead

When he woke she was gone with his car and all of his money
