Prayer for the Weekend
Album - 12 aprile 2007 - Debaser id 405366

Come, baby. It's time to pray

Come it's time to pray for the weekend, babe
Come it's time to jump in at the deep end, babe
It opens up its jaws it's panting like a hound
We'll pick the fleurs du mal and we'll bind it a crown

Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, make your claim for a better day
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, make your claim for the holyday

It hovers like an eagle
It's growling like a beast
Demanding our sacrifice
but offering a feast
It's calling out for blood
we must quench its thirst
The night is calling all its dusky children back to work
But first...

Come, let's pray for the weekend babe
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, make your claim for a better day
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
nanana nana nana nanana
Come, make your claim for the holyday

Let's pray that the weekend will thrill us, babe
Let's pray that the weekend wont kill us, babe
Hooray!

Moves, I like to make 'em
Grooves, I like to shake 'em
Shake 'em from my troublesome mind
'Cause sometimes you'll find
That I'm out of my mind
You see baby, I'm the worrying kind

Words, I'd like to break 'em
Words, I like to shake 'em
Shake 'em from my troublesome mind
And you turn up your nose
It's a joke you suppose
But baby, I'm the worrying kind

So if you see me somewhere
With that glassy ol' stare
And the panic and fear in my eyes
Don't call for first aid or the fire brigade
Or the local police 'cause they won't care
I'm just a silly old boy with my head in the can
Just a mortal with potential of a superman
But what sense does it make
When I feel like a fake
When I'm saying to you all be good for goodness sake?

Words, I like to break 'em
Words, I'd like to shake 'em
Shake 'em from my troublesome mind
And why? Heaven knows
It's a joke I suppose
But baby, I'm the worrying kind

So if you see me somewhere
With that glassy ol' stare
And the panic and fear in my eyes
Don't call for first aid or the fire brigade
Or the local police 'cause they won't care
I'm just a silly old boy with my head in the can
Just a mortal with potential of a superman
But what sense does it make
When I feel like a fake
When I'm saying to you all be good for goodness sake?

Oh, words, I like to shake 'em
Words, I'd like to break 'em
Shake 'em from my troublesome mind
And why? Heaven knows
It's a joke I suppose
But baby, I'm the worrying kind

And you turn up your nose
And you say it's a pose
But baby, I'm the worrying kind

Yeah, sometimes I'm blind
I'm just out of my mind
Baby, I'm the worrying kind

Thank God I was born in a time when something new was about to start
Been shut down I've been kicked around now there's an a-bomb in my heart
And i know that the times are rough but I won't play dead while I'm alive
So hang on and we'll turn up the sound of all the anger in our hearts

'Cause right now under this fevering moon
I wanna take you for a ride
To the reasons you need be it hunger or greed
It's ok

Tell me a joke and make me smile
Play me the part be the star for a while
And absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby

Gimme a wink, Let me know you're alive
Do what you will, we're only here for a while
So absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby
Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby

And I know that the times are rough but I won't play dead while I'm alive
For I long for the shock and the awe
Of speaking plainly from my mind

But I know there's a place downtown where they say there's a bug-free zone
So let's go, let's head out tonight and let the words in our minds spill out

'Cause right now under this fevering moon
I wanna take you for a ride
To the reasons you need be it hunger or greed
It's all and a little bit more as we come alive again

Tell me a joke and make me smile
Play me the part be the star for a while
And absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby

Gimme a wink, Let me know you're alive
Do what you will, we're only here for a while
Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby
Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby

It's only ripples in the sand
It's only ripples in the sand
It's only ripples in the sand
