Good Friday
Hailey Wojcik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well it's Good Good Good Friday
And I took too long to rise
I knew that it was getting late but I couldn't open my eyes
So I slept in 'til the soaps came on
And I took a shower 'til the hot water was gone
I knew that it was getting late
But I still wanna save the day
'Cause I don't have to work today
And I wanna be Good Good Good Friday

Well it's feast or fast just like before
When we had our little holy war
And you said we are just what we eat
We are the blood we are the meat
And what good good good's a carnival without a carnivore

It's almost Easter but it's snowing outside
The sky is just a solid white
If we're lucky it'll melt by May
But I just wanna stay in and play
Cause I don't have to work today
And I wanna be good good good someday

Well it's Good Good Good Friday
And I took too long to rise
I knew that it was getting late but I couldn't open my eyes
I know that it was getting late
But I still wanna save the day




'Cause I don't have to work today
And I wanna be Good Good Good Friday

Overall Meaning

The song "Good Friday" by Hailey Wojcik is a lighthearted take on the religious holiday of Good Friday, which is traditionally a day of mourning and reflection in the Christian faith. The lyrics describe the singer's struggle to get out of bed and make the most of the day, despite the fact that she has nothing specific planned. She takes a shower and watches TV, but still wants to feel like she's doing something important, like saving the day.


The second verse of the song takes a more serious turn, referencing a "holy war" and the idea that we are what we eat. The singer plays with the idea of a carnivore at a carnival, perhaps referencing the excess and indulgence often associated with carnival culture. The reference to the snow outside further emphasizes the disconnect between the traditional expectations of the holiday and the singer's own experience of it.


Overall, the song is a playful and irreverent take on Good Friday, highlighting the tension between the seriousness of the holiday and the mundane realities of everyday life.

Happy Good Friday! This has become one of my favorite traditions 😁

@Random1765

Well, so far your 4 songs are pretty good, can't believe there are so little views or comments, if you can get your music out there you could get popular. I noticed you have a thing for blood, since you had blood in every video.

@cody1088

I know it’s gonna be a damn good day. Happy Friday! 🐠

Love this.

@cody1088

It's good Friday. I have a strong feeling that's no where close to what the song's about, but it's what makes me think of it.

@EricAndre615

Love the cape and the balancing bird and that weird jar of lambs blood, or whatever it was.

@HaileyWojcik

@derebin Thanks so much! (I think the video is still processing. It was shot in HD, so it should look okay once YouTube works its magic.)
