Today was the day For dancing and for singing The birds in the trees And all the bells are ringing The sun in the sky Is bright, as bright second sight Is bright, oh God, I hope I'm alright 'Cause I'm gonna cry But hold on, hold on Slow down, slow down You're out of touch Out of touch 'Cause there is no design for life There's no devil's haircut in my mind There is not a wonderwall to climb Or step around But there is a slide show, and it's so slow Flashing through my mind Today was the day But only for the first time There is no design for life There's no devil's haircut in your mind There is not a wonderwall to climb Or step around Yet there is a slide show, and it's so slow Flashing through your mind Today is the day But only for the first time I hope it's not the last time, oh, oh Saturday evening Saturday evening, a quarter to five I would see him arrive at the door Pushed you aside, as he staggered inside Spitting alcohol over the floor A storm is a-brewing, it's sure to fall soon As I look at you from the shore So, you better hold on 'Cause it's Saturday night And your friends are all out And you feel like shit Because they never call you No they never call you No they never call, never call Never bloody ever Call me a name, and I'll hit you again You're a slut, you're a bitch, you're a whore Talk to your daddy in that tone of voice There's a belt hanging over the door So you run to your room And you hide in your room Thinking how you could settle the score But Saturday night, at a quarter to six And your friends are all out You live in the sticks Still, they never call you No they never call you No they never call, never call Never bloody ever call The blue flashing light last Saturday night Brought the neighbours all out on the street We watched as the fireman carried you out Then we stared at each other's feet Now everyone sees, and yet nobody says Are we all just afraid of the heat? But it's Saturday night, and I'm lying alone In the bed that I made Disconnected the phone Still they never called you No they never called you No they never call, never call Never bloody ever call Never bloody ever Never do Never do
