Mecca:83 - Saturday lyrics

Woke up thinking it's school But I was happy it was saturday Turned the TV on and watched the racoons Brother and sister downstairs already fighting Dad banging on the ceiling ‘cus that was his only lie in He came down like a stomping giant Mum got the eggs in the frying pan frying Dad took us for a haircut Waiting outside the bookies Sitting on the wall Praying Dad gets lucky Afternoons was Knight Rider Street Hawk or Airwolf Mum played the pools So it was football results Over time the programmes changed From Blind Date to You Bet Generation Game Forsyth bussing a two step Play ya cards right But it's X factor now Funny how saturday seems to have it's own style Scratch Chorus by Jabba Tha Kut “We did it like that now we do it like this Let's take a step and think back I think about the days Go inside your mind and find a time that you miss Will they reminisce” My favourite day But the world's still spinning Football focus Matches need winning Chip shops open So that's big man grinning Mum spring cleaning New fresh linen New shoes from town Couple vinyls and a cd Pocket money Sticker book that says panini Watching snooker Play the lottery If you're not going out with your missus Then its a chinese Match of the day After that probably Netflix Chillin' on the sofa And you might get a bit Only joking Everyday has a new meaning A new meeting Couple of nice greetings Dont get too mashed and start beefing Mess around in town and ruin everybody's weekend Then its bridewell breakfast on sunday In court monday But saturday was the fun day Whether you're washing your car Or your mowing your lawn You could have slept in but you're up early morn Freedom is the best feeling Are you a robot today? Not at all My grandad would play spot the ball Each day is a different colour in my head Monday is orange But saturday is red Mum would do the weekly shop And say we don't need a lot We was very happy with whatever we got Nowadays more and more people work on Weekends Is it still special? Or just another day in the week then Tim westwood rap show was my nights in Got my tape ready for the top ten at ten Then I would start writing Just another dream in the bedroom Now I need a boardroom or more leg room
