Elvis Costello - Seven Day Weekend - With Jimmy Cliff Lyrics

Artist: Elvis Costello

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Jimmy Cliff, Declan Macmanus

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven

Monday's calling you too early when you're sound asleep
Bells are ringing by your bedside and out in the streets
You say Monday's long enough but this is just the start
Tuesday's just the same as Monday without the surprising part

Wednesday's point of no return
When you've squandered all you've earned

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend

This is all I'm thinking about as the days go by
Spend your life on holiday and even when I die
There could be but one inscription 'This was not his day'
If it isn't Thursday anymore, it must be Friday

I can't wait until I maybe
Get off work and see my baby

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend

I can't wait until I maybe
Get off work and see my baby

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend
...
