Friday night, clock strikes five

It’s been a long week but it’s finally arrived

Time for a chilled one in with some wine

A film and a Chinese… Ha, yeah right

Rise to my feet and leave for the day

Call my people and tell them to meet at my place

Eating is cheating so straight onto pre-drinks

And let’s get this evening underway

Laughing, joking, drinking, smoking

Glasses clinking, music pumping

Couple mates cutting up a little something

It isn’t for me man but I ain’t judging

No plan we’ll just go with the flow

But we know that we need to leave in a bit

Nobody really cares where though

Because what matters the most is the people you’re with

Yeah coz we’re just living for the weekend

And right now this is weekend living

Each of us is just making the most

Of the little bit of freedom we get given

Walk in the club, straight to bar

Order some shots and pay with my card

I’d rather have fun while I’m young

Than look back when I’m older and feel like I wasted the chance

Couple hours pass of dancing and drinking

Till I’m in the garden smoking a fag

With my arm round my mate

Like “I know that I don’t say this enough but I love you man”

Dance is done but I’m far from it

Did someone say “Houseparty”? I’m on it

Smoke in the air people sat on the floor

But this is where the best friendships are formed

Chatting to a guy til it’s light outside

On a deep vibe for 3hrs straight

Reckon that I’ve made a new mate for life

When I’m like “Bruv I don’t even know your name!”

Yeah coz we’re just living for the weekend

And right now this is Weekend Living

Each of us is just making the most

Of the little bit of freedom we get given

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Coz right now this is Weekend Living

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Each of us is just making the most

Of the little bit of freedom we get given

Wake up Sunday morning and you’re crawling out of bed

Feel appalling you can hear your friends all talking in your den

You say what time did you wake up because it is only 10:00

And then they say “What do you mean wake up? We still haven’t slept”

Yeah, sometimes I wonder what’s wrong with us

Will we ever go on to accomplish much?

Probably but for now I’m happy watching

The Come Down With Me omnibus

Now I need to eat and I think

That there’s only one thing that is able to save me

A big plate of meat and potatoes

Preferably swimming in a lake of gravy

Head to the pub, order some grub

Might as well get a pint to wash it down

In for a penny, in for a pound

In for a bevvy, in for a round

Now it’s 10pm and I’m wasted

How the hell did I let this happen again?

I got work in the morning

But it’s only 5 days til the next weekend

Yeah coz we’re just living for the weekend

And right now this is Weekend Living

Each of us is making the most

Of the little bit of freedom we get given

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Coz right now this is Weekend Living

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Yeah I said we’re living for the weekend

Each of us is just making the most

Of the little bit of freedom, we get given
