Lyrics
Saturdays
Silver linings coat the windows of the bar
Try diplomacy, to see if your games on
Pool balls clattering, they shatter all your thoughts
The little things that help you turn the world off
But it’s Saturday, and you just gotta let ‘em know
That you’ll be out late, and the front porch light is on
And the front porch light is on
Challenge you with a good time they’re gonna lose
Get a couple more before the first one’s through
Hustled by a one-armed shark with laser eyes
Got a lesson and a buzz for the same price
But it’s Saturday, and you just gotta let ‘em know
That you’ll be out late, and the front porch light is on
And the front porch light is on
Open mic but you don’t wanna play this time
Stood up front then head to the back of the line
Change your mind, you always do and they all know
You try to play it cool ‘till the conversation slows
But it’s Saturday, and you just gotta let ‘em know
That you’ll be out late, and the front porch light is on
But it’s Saturday, and you just gotta let ‘em know
That you’ll be out late, and the front porch light is on
And the front porch light is on
