Get outta my way.
It’s Friday and I’m
going home, if these
cars will cooperate.
Get outta my way.
It’s been a loooong
week and I need
to find my front door.
Friday is my night so
take two steps back.
I’ll be hanging with
my friends and
forgetting this week.
Get outta my way.
I need Fridays like
a dying man needs
a good friend.
