House of Heroes Album: Say No More Track: Friday Night
Friday Night Lyrics
And I don't want to spend this Friday night, Like I had to spend last Friday night; Dying by the record machine. All day cigarettes, all day entertain the void. There are so many things I should be doing But I don't, and I don't change. All day kerosene, all day I play with matchbooks. I push them all away or burn them alive In attempts to save me. Regret would require less arrogance.
I like my self on the following conditions: That I'm better than the next guy At everything I'm into. And my looks are important If I'm less sophisticated. And my girlfriend's a bombshell And I'm all she's ever dated. And money's an object if it pays for my ego. Power's the drug, and pride s the needle. And it rips through my skin And goes into my blood stream. I feel like laughing, I feel like choking on it.
I don't want to spend this Friday night Picking fights by the record machine.
True, but not quite, That I'm tired of the fantasy. And I see the light, But the dark is so accommodating. The worst mistake I cold make Is watch you walking away. Not that I know how to change I do it just the same.
