Lyrics

[Chorus]

Hey man, I'm alive, I'm takin' each day and night at a time

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

[Verse 1]

Hey, my name is Jim, where did I go wrong?

My life's a bargain basement, all the good shit's gone

Just can't hold a job, where do I belong?

Been sleepin' in my car, my dreams moved on

[Verse 2]

My name is Billie Jean, my love is bought and sold

I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old

My foster daddy went, took my innocence away

The street life ain't much better, but at least I'm getting paid

[PreChorus]

And Tuesday just might go my way

It can't get worse than yesterday

Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind

But somehow I'll survive

[Chorus]

Hey, man, I'm alive, I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey, hey, hey, hey, man, gotta live my life

Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

[Verse 3]

Now I can't say my name or tell you where I am

I want to blow myself away, don't know if I can

I wish that I could be in some other time and place

With someone else's soul, someone else's face

[PreChorus]

Oh, Tuesday just might go my way

Can't get worse than yesterday

Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind

But somehow I'll survive

[Chorus]

Hey man, I'm alive, I'm taking each day and night at a time

Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey, hey, hey, hey, man, I gotta live my life

I'm gonna pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

[Bridge]

Ooh, Saturday night

Hear me now

Someday, I'll be Saturday night

I'll be back on my feet, I'll be doing all right

It may not be tomorrow, baby, that's okay

I ain't goin' down, I'm gonna find a way, hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]

Man, I'm alive

I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey, hey, hey, hey, man, I'm gonna live my life

Like I ain't got nothing but this roll of the dice

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

Oh, I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

[Outro]

Oh, oh, oh

Saturday night

Alright, alright

Saturday night
