When Saturday Comes
Saturday Nights: Youthful Rebellion and Aftershave Adventures
Lyrics
I knew that it would be a big night
I anticipated that tonight would be significant.
Out with the full brigade
Going out with a large group of people.
So sneak into your parents bedroom
Sneak into your parents' bedroom.
To nick your old man's aftershave
To take your father's cologne without permission.
I know he knows but what's the difference
I acknowledge that he is aware, but it doesn't matter.
Stinking like I'm 45
Smelling like I'm older than my age.
It's gonna take a bigger man than you boy
A bigger, more mature person is needed to maintain the liveliness of the streets.
To keep these streets alight
A challenge to those who may not be capable.
Stumbling through your weekdays
Navigating through the mundane days of the week.
Burning through your Friday night
Spending energy and enthusiasm on Friday night.
Until Saturday Comes...
Anticipation and excitement build until Saturday arrives.
When saturday comes
When Saturday finally arrives.
When saturday comes
Repetition for emphasis on the significance of Saturday.
We are Young
Celebrating youthfulness.
We're alright
Expressing assurance and contentment.
But first we gotta find a Threshers
Prioritizing the search for a liquor store.
Where no one really knows who we are
Choosing a place where anonymity is maintained.
Failing that, I've made a cocktail
If unsuccessful, resorting to a homemade cocktail.
From my old man's spirit bar
Utilizing ingredients from the father's liquor collection.
I know he knows I'm up to something
Awareness of being caught, but the action continues.
I didn't fall far from the tree
Acknowledging similarities with the father.
But somehow he always lets it go
The father overlooks or forgives the mischief.
He's been where I've been
Shared experiences between father and son.
Wasting through your weekdays
Enduring the monotony of the weekdays.
Burning through your Friday night
Expending energy on Friday night.
Until Saturday Comes
Counting down until the much-anticipated Saturday.
