 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

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. (x2) 
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 (x2) 
I can't wait until I maybe 
Get off work and see my baby 
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven day weekend 
(Repeat)
