Simple Plan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night,
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
[Verse 1]
Ticking like a time bomb, waiting for the weekend
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
People throw their hands up higher than the ceiling
I can see the line up running 'round the whole party
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
Coming through the window, I can hear the bass drum
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
[Pre-Chorus]
We don't have to go, we can stay right here
[Chorus]
We can go get drunk, staying up all night,
Singing "Don't Stop Believing" til the morning light.
We can line up shots til it all goes bad,
And we're passed out and puking in a taxi cab.
When you're lying here by my side (oh yeah!)
Nowhere else feels right (oh yeah!)
I'd rather be alone with you on a Saturday night!
[Bridge]
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
[Verse 2]
This is gonna be a night so epic
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
You and me baby, nothing but Netflix
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
[Pre-Chorus]
We don't have to go, we can stay right here
[Chorus]
We can go get drunk, staying up all night,
Singing "Don't Stop Believing" til the morning light.
We can line up shots til it all goes bad,
And we're passed out and puking in a taxi cab.
When you're lying here by my side (oh yeah!)
Nowhere else feels right (oh yeah!)
I'd rather be alone with you on a Saturday night!
[Guitar Solo]
[Hook]
If we ever get bored, if we get restless
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
We can get dressed up, let's get epic
[Bridge]
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
[Outro]
[Chorus]
We can go get drunk, staying up all night,
Singing "Don't Stop Believing" til the morning light.
We can line up shots til it all goes bad,
And we're passed out and puking in a taxi cab.
We'll stop on every bar on the boulevard,
Til we max out the limits on my credit card.
When I've got you here by my side (Oh Yeah!)
Everything feels right (Oh yeah!)
As long as it's me and you on Saturday night!
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y!

I used to be like completely obsessed with simple plan back in high school. I've been pretty disappointed with their newest songs. But I still love them and they mean a lot to me since they were an important part or my life. And I will always be looking forward to their music. This is pretty catchy I can't wait to hear more!
Keval Upadhyay
I absolutely agree with u!

I know right!!

LadyMeilin Get Your Heart On is by far one of their best albums ever, IMO! I suggest you listen to it again, the songs on it are simply... amazing. (This is coming from a man in his 20s). And this song is pretty freaking good too. New Saturday anthem for me for sure!

LadyMeilin i agree- love them tonnes but they need to think about not succumbing to what will get them teeny boppers and hits, and just write like they used to

Pues a mi me gusto, y los vengo escuchando hace 5 meses y me parece que son geniales y originales , llevó tan poco tiempo y los apoyo por que es la única banda que a mi parecer a solucionado muchos de nuestros problemas, y sólo por un cambio de "estilo" no los vamos a dejar, o por lo menos yo no lo haré, por que simple plan es único.
Fabio Mosqueda
Simple Plan ha sido mi banda favorita desde siempre y es la única banda de la que puedo decir que me gustan todas y cada una de sus canciones (ésta no fue la excepción), para mí nunca han perdido su sonido y confío plenamente en que nunca lo harán <3
Me vale tres kilos si a la mayoría les gusta o no les gusta ;) here's to the rest of us
