Lyrics
WHY WAIT TILL FRIDAY
© 2004 Speedline Publishing
Music: Eric Sierka, John Grecia
Lyrics: Eric Sierka
Gotta change my life today
Gotta get outside and play
Lay in sun for once
Need my favorite cup of jo
Then its off to the park I go
Maybe a picnic lunch
And from a bench I'll watch the folks stroll by
Kick off my shoes, soak up sun, smile wide...
Chorus
Why wait for Friday
To have a high day
To find some time for me
Why wait till Friday
Today is my day
To be what want to be
Wasn't long before I heard
A good friend of mine from work
She said "What are you doing here?"
And we laughed cause we both knew
That it was just the thing to do
Then I said listen here
I should tell'em take the job and shove it
Why do I work so hard when I don't ever love it
Chorus
Why wait for Friday
To have a high day
To find some time for me
Why wait till Friday
Today is my day
To be what want to be
BRIDGE
Life gets so complicated
Its easy to lose sight of things
Reaching for the golden ring
But now, yeah right now
Gonna toss the fears aside
Catch a wave and ride
Been waiting for the tide
And then when I'm done
I'll be the one singing yeah, yeah, yeah!
SOLO
Gonna tell'em take the job and shove it
Cause I didn't ever love it
Chorus
Why wait for Friday
To have a high day
To find some time for me
Why wait till Friday
Today is my day
To be what want to be
Why wait till Friday
To have a high day
To find some time for me
Why wait till Friday
That day might never come
And then... Oh and then where would I be?
