Lyrics
If we tell you that you've got two days to live
If someone informs you that you have only two days left to live
Then don't complain, cause that's one more than you'd get in Zaire
Don't complain because having two days is better than none, referencing the difficult conditions in Zaire
So don't hang around and be foolish
Don't waste time and be imprudent
Do something constructive with your weekend
Engage in productive and meaningful activities during your weekend
From Monday morning I work for Friday nights
From Monday to Friday, the speaker works with the anticipation of Friday night
Collect my wages, then try to paint on the smell of soap
After receiving wages, the speaker tries to cover up the scent of work with soap
Cause tonight I get ready early
The speaker prepares early for the night, possibly to go out
Score what I need and go pick a girl up
Plans to obtain what is needed and pick up a girl
It seems like ages since we had some fun
Expresses a longing for the fun that seems to be lacking for a while
Here comes the weekend, I get to see the girls
Announcement of the arrival of the weekend, the time to meet girls
Long live the weekend, the weekend is here
Celebration of the weekend and its positive vibes
(The weekend starts here)
Declaration that the weekend officially begins
Everything feels right now
Feeling that everything is in the right place at the moment
I know why I'm alive now
Understanding the purpose of being alive
Everything else is a lie now
Suggesting that everything else is a falsehood or unimportant
Now I know why I'm here
Realization of the speaker's purpose or reason for existence
Here comes the weekend, I'm gonna do my head
Anticipation of the weekend causing excitement or confusion
Long live the weekend, the weekend is dead
Acknowledgment that the weekend, previously celebrated, is now over
