"Someday I'll Be Saturday Night (Original Demo)" lyrics

No, I thought that was a nice, uh, performance
Rolling
One, two
One, two, three, four

I'm going drinking

Hey my name is Jim, I fought in Vietnam
My life's a bargain basement and all the good shit's gone
I just can't hold a job, where did I go wrong?
Been sleeping in my car, my dreams moved on
My name is Billie Jean, my love is bought and sold
I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
My foster daddy went, took my innocence away
The street life ain't much better, but at least I'm getting paid

And Tuesday just might go my way
Can't get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
But somehow I'll survive

Hey, man, I'm alive
As long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by (Oh, oh, oh)
When I wanna die
I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
I'm feeling like a Monday, but I wish I were Saturday night

I can't say my name, my life is on the line
They say that I'm to blame, that I'm guilty of a crime
I wish that I could be in another time and place
With someone else's soul and someone else's face

This world ain't so cut and dry
But I can't "why," wrong or right
I ain't here to justify
What I gotta do to survive

Hey, man, I'm alive
As long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by (Oh, oh, oh)
When I wanna die
I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
I'm feeling like a Monday, but I wish I were Saturday night

I'm feeling like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night
That's right

Tuesdays just might go my way
Can't get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
Somehow I'll survive

Hey, man, I'm alive
As long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by (Oh, oh, oh)
When I wanna die
I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
Feeling like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

I'm feeling like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

I'm feeling like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night
