Blue Flashing Light

Saturday evening

Saturday evening, a quarter to five

I would see him arrive at the door

Pushed you aside as he staggered inside

Spitting alcohol over the floor

A storm is a brew and it's sure to fall soon

As I look at you from the shore

So you better hold on

Cause it's Saturday night

And your friends are all out

And you feel like shit

'Cause they never call you

No, they never call you

No, they never call, never call

Never bloody ever

Call me a name and I'll hit you again

You're a slut, you're a bitch, you're a whore

Talk to your daddy in that tone of voice

There's a belt hanging over the door

So you run to your room

And you hide in your room

Thinking how you could settle the score

But it's Saturday night at a quarter to six

And your friends are all out

But you're live in the sticks

Still they never call you

No, they never call you

No, they never call, never call

Never bloody ever call

The blue flashing light last Saturday night

Brought the neighbours all out on the street

We watched as the firemen carried you out

And we stared at each other's feet

Now everyone sees and yet nobody says

Are we all just afraid of the heat?

But it's Saturday night

And I'm lying alone in the bed that I made

Disconnected the phone

Still they never called you

No, they never called you

No, they never call, never call

Never bloody ever call

Never bloody ever

Never do

Never do
