I go to work each day
I work from nine to five
Don't really make that much
Just enough to stay alive
It seems like I can't win
With these four walls closing in
What would be really nice
Is if I could find my paradise
When the weekend comes
Things are going to be okay
When the weekend comes
Gonna party night and day
When the weekend comes
Everything will be alright
Oh, when the weekend comes
Monday morning rolls around
Don't wanna go back to work
He tells me I'm late again
Every boss must be a jerk
He's always on my back
Can't you cut me a little slack
If I can make it
Just a few more days
I'm gonna go catch some rays
When the weekend comes
Things are going to be okay
When the weekend comes
Gonna party night and day
When the weekend comes
Everything will be alright
Oh, when the weekend comes
Friday evening's drawing near
I'm counting down the hours
Gonna leave my stress behind
Let loose my inner power
Meet my friends at the bar
And be a karaoke star
Living for the moment
Glad to be alive
When the weekend comes
Things are going to be okay
When the weekend comes
Gonna party night and day
When the weekend comes
Everything will be alright
Oh, when the weekend comes
When the weekend comes
Friday evening's drawing near
I'm counting down the hours
Gonna leave my stress behind
Let loose my inner power
Meet my friends at the bar
And be a karaoke star
Living for the moment
Glad to be alive
When the weekend comes
Things are going to be okay
When the weekend comes
Gonna party night and day
When the weekend comes
Everything will be alright
Oh, when the weekend comes
Weekend comes oh oh ooh
