Working for a man that you don't understand so forget it
Spending all your dough where you know as soon as you get it
Wasting your time on an assembly line, you want out of it
Picking up your pay at the end of the day and get out of it

And get away
(Will it ever change?)
Cause you're wondering if it's gonna change
(Weekdays are the same)
Cause the weekdays are the same as always, never changing

Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out
Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out
Long live the weekend

Monday, don't want to get out of bed
Tuesday, I'm walking with the dead
Wednesday never felt so wrong
Thursday, it takes twice as long

But Friday,
(Will it ever change?)
I know where I'm gonna be
(Weekdays are the same)
Weekends are always the same
Far away from the same old everyday ordinary

Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out
Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out
Long live the weekend
Long live the weekend

Week in, week out
Week in, week out
Week in, week out
Week in, week out

I don't care if I don't get paid
I can't sit here for one more day
Wasting away

Well now, you're wondering if it's gonna change
Cause the weekdays are the same as always never changing

Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out
Make a break, another escape
I gotta get out, I gotta get out

Long live the weekend
Long live the weekend
Long live the weekend

Long live the weekend
(It's never too late, it's never too late)
Long live the weekend
(It's never too late, it's never too late)
Long live the weekend
