Seven day weekend

Oh yeah! Alright!
I had myself a good job in the city,
Pushin´ a pen and talkin´ on the phone.
The money was good but the work was such a big drag,
I thought that my brain would turn to stone.
But I ain´t gonna work no more, I´ve got better things to do, I do,
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, mmm hmm.
They told me if I stayed on for a lifetime,
I´d be an office manager some day.
But my heart was never in the right place,
I only went there for the pay.
But I ain´t gonna work no more, I´ve got better things to do, mmm hmm,
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, Oh yeah.
Well on Friday, the weekend rolls around,
Saturday, I´m gonna rock this town.
On Sunday, won´t have to worry no more,
´Cause Monday ain´t so bad when there´s no work in store.
I guess the money comes in handy,
It helps me pay the bills and rent.
But if I stay too long on this job,
I´ll wonder where my time all went.
But I ain´t gonna work no more, I´ve got better things to do, doo-bah-doo.
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you. Oh come on!

Whoo!
Well Tuesday, I´ll hang out the beach,
Wednesday, this boy can not be reached.
Thursday, I´ll stand out in the rain,
When Friday comes, I´ll start all over again.
But I ain´t gonna work no more, I´ve got better things to do, you know I do!
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, mmm hmm.
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you.
