The Weekend Song/I Don't Know

Words and Music by Alanis Morissette, Nick Lashley, Jessie Tobias, Chris Chaney, and Taylor Hawkins (Cantnot Tour, 1996)

Monday morning's not Monday morning 'till Taylor has his coffee
Friday night is not Friday night 'till Jessie leaves the room sweating
Tuesday morning is not Tuesday morning 'till Nick has his talk with his son
Thursday night is not Thursday night 'till Chris has sex with his bass

[CHORUS]
Come on to the Weekend
'Cause the weekend I'll get high
Hold off 'till the Weekend
'Cause there's too much time to think
And there will be nice skies

Tuesday morning is Wednesday afternoon when you cry all night
Wednesday early we fall into work all caught up in the day by day
Thursday morning is not Thursday morning 'till _________ says, "How's your life?"
How's your life? Yeah how's your life? How's your life?

[CHORUS]
Come on to the weekend 'cause the weekend I'll get high
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause there's too much time to think and not much time to cry
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause the weekend we'll be high
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause there'll be no time but we'll get by

[BRIDGE]
What if there were no more mama's boys?
What if no one shares their humble appearance?
What there were no consequences?
What if there were no more arguments?
Well that'd be a shame
Well that'd be impossible
And you would be board
'Cause you wouldn't want it any other way

[CHORUS]
Hold on 'till the weekend 'cause the weekend I'll get high
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause the man upstairs has the really nice skies
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause the weekend I'll get high
Hold off 'till the weekend 'cause we may look strange but we surely will get by

[BRIDGE REPEAT]
What if there were no more mama's boys?
What if we all had no thinking together?
Well that'd be a shame
Well that'd be impossible
And you would be board
'Cause you wouldn't want it any other way
