Friday Nights
Jens O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's Friday night and everybody's in the place
To get it right, to face the booming bass
And let me see all your hands up in the air, yeah

Forget your troubles, your worries of the week
And keep on dancing, together cheek to cheek
And live your life like you just don't even care, yeah
Yeah!

Let me see your hands up in the air
Wave 'em like you just don't care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

Let me see your hands up in the air

Let me see your hands up

The next night, the daylight passed away
But no doubt, the party's here to stay
We keep on rocking, no matter what they say, yeah

Let me see your hands up in the air
Wave 'em like you just don't care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

So everybody in the club
Just let me see your hands up in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
Are you ready? C'mon!
Are you ready?

Let me see your hands up in the air
Let me see your hands up in the air





Let me see your hands up
