Weekend

[Intro]
Everybody listen to this
The weekend's coming so don't you dare miss
You're gonna regret if you're not on the scene
And then you'll get so mad it'll make you scream

[Verse 1]
Everyone give us your attention please
Especially those of you who like parties
It's a message that we would like to extend
About why everybody love the what? Weekend!
Cause there's a time to work and a time to play
But you can't do both effectively in one day
So without delay, without further ado
Let the four run down this week for you
We're the Cold Crush Four, giving, giving you more
And we just came to say
Oooh-ahh, what a relief it is
When the weekend comes your way
So grab a chair from anywhere
And listen while we speak
Cause the Four's gonna start this record off
With the first day of the week

[Verse 2]
Monday!
The train was late and you hardly ate
Plus you wish you'd stayed in bed
Tuesday!
You ran a game on your favorite dame
And then she messed up your head
Wednesday!
You try to be cool and stay out of school
Yeah, you're fronting and showboating
Thursday!
Now your mind's in doubt, you can't figure out
Why you're not gonna get promoted
Friday!
After work is through, you sleep for a few
Until you hear somebody say
"Wake up, wake up, now don't you know
The weekend's when we play"

This is Chase with the bass
Tone, leave the girl alone

[Verse 3]
Friday and Saturday night, everybody's gonna show
At the place where all the fly people go
You been working at school or your occupation
Now it's about time for some recreation
Slip on your shirt and designer jeans
Say the ones that are tight at the hip and the seams
Then you shoot out the door like you're running a race
And then you finally arrive at the Cold Crush place
And...

[Verse 4]
You can't believe your eyes, 'cause
The party's packed and jumping
That funky bass is thumping
And the way the music rocks your mind
Ooh girl, it's really something
It's a place where you can dance
You can even find romance
And I know you can do it if you
Give yourself a chance
So-so-so-so, so just dance

Almighty all nighty, ha ha ha
JDL, well...

[Verse 5]
We gonna let you know, we gonna let you see
What we're gonna do at the party
Grandmaster Caz, I got lovin' to spare
I'm gonna chill with the ladies when I get there
Well I'm Jerry Dee or JDL
And when I get there I'm gonna rock it well
Easy AD not talkin' no jive
And the party's gonna swing when I arrive
Well I'm the Almighty and when I get there
I wanna hear everybody cheer, cheer, cheer
And we're the Cold Crush Four
With Tone and Chase
So c'mon everybody in the party place
Just throw your hands in the air
And just wave them like you just don't care
And if you're on the go cause we told you so
Somebody say Hoooo (Hooo!)
Hooo-hoooo! (Hoooo-hooo!)
Ho-ho-ho! (Ho-ho-ho!)

[Verse 6]
Now the lights are flashin', the people are dancing
The guys are looking out for some serious action
It's richer than a diamond, finer than a pearl
And this is what happens when boy meets girl
Introduce yourself as whoever you are
Then you grab her by the hand and lead her to the bar
Offer her a drink, maybe a cigarette
'Til she insists conversation is all you're gonna get
Try another approach and ask her for a dance
Your time is runnin' out, this is your last chance
And then you sweep her off her feet with your prowess
And then you know you got it made — finally, success
Cause we rock the best and the Four is fresh

[Interlude]
Oooh man that party was smokin'...
[TALKING - NEEDS TRANSCRIPTION]

[Verse 7]
When the jam is over you head for the stairs
All the girls and the guys are leaving in pairs
You had such a good time, you wish you could stay
Now it's time to catch the bus, train, or OJ
You get to your house and pull out your key
You're tired as hell, you want to sleep 'til three
Wake up Sunday, wipe the sleep from your eyes
And go out in the sun for some exercise
Play ball, roller skate, or visit a friend
And go home and think about the next weekend
