Lyrics
Friday Night
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.
Baby I don't care if you heard this song before
And baby I don't care if you think the music's boring
Because I'm not aware of any law in the land
That will set your heart up above my hand
Cause I have never been drunk
And I have never been stoned
But when I sing this song now
You know I feel just a little bit less alone
Oh, all the beautiful girls
Oh, they mean nothing to me
And all the beautiful boys
You know I can't even see 'em
Because my heart is so pure
So pure it would [?]
If you cut me open you'd see that I'm made of ivory soap
I want to talk to God
I wanna tell him my name
I wanna let him know now
That he's not to blame
For the shit I've done
When I was talking with you
You know I'm not even young
You know I got no excuse because I have never been drunk
And I have never been stoned
Oh when I hear your voice
You know I feel just a little bit less alone
But I don't want you here
I wanna be by myself
No I don't want your help
No I don't want your motherfuckin' help
Keep your hands from my heart
Keep your hands from my soul
Keep your eyes off my eyes
Keep your ears off my fucking rock and roll
Cause I have never been drunk
And I have never been stoned
Well when I see you there
Oh I'm afraid that [?]
Why don't you let me, let me be, let me, let me be, now
Let me, let me be, let me, let me be, now
Let me, let me be, let me, let me be, now
Let me, let me be, let me, let me be, now
Ladies and gentleman, once again
Joe firestone
Give it up for everyone in this fucking band
Now I need you to take it down
Now, I know some of you have never been drunk
And some of you have never been stoned, alright
What I'm going to ask you to do
I'm going to count down from five
And when I get to one
I'm going to ask you to shout as loud as you can something that you've never done before
That you've always maybe wanted to do
This is more of a goal-setting activity
Are you ready for it?
I wanna build something new
I wanna work with my hands
I wanna work with my hands
I wanna die with a plan
Cause I have never been drunk
And I have never been stoned
Oh let me build up my world now
Oh let me build it alone
Oh let me build up my world now
Oh let me build it alone, alone, alone, alone, alone
Alone
Oh let me build it alone, now
Oh let me build it alone
Oh let me build up my world now
Oh let me build it alone
Oh let me build up my world now
Oh let me build it alone
Oh let me build up my world now
Oh let me build it alone
