Last Friday Night
Katty Perry/Katy Perry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbies on the barbecue
This a hickey or a bruise?
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked out blur
But I'm pretty sure it ruled
Damn
Last Friday night
Yeah, we danced on tabletops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed, but I forgot
Last Friday night
Yeah, we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a mĆ©nage Ć trois
Last Friday night
Yeah, I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop-op
Oh whoa
This Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again
Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor
Ripped my favorite party dress
Warrant's out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked out blur
But I'm pretty sure it ruled
Damn
Last Friday night
Yeah, we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed, but I forgot
Last Friday night
Yeah, we maxed our credits card
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevards
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a mĆ©nage Ć trois
Last Friday night
Yeah, I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop-op
Oh whoa
This Friday night
Do it all again (do it all again)
This Friday night
Do it all again (do it all again)
This Friday night
T.G.I.F.

The song "Last Friday Night" is a single from Katy Perry's third studio album, Teenage Dream, and was released in 2011. The lyrics describe a wild night of partying, where the singer wakes up with a stranger in her bed, a pounding headache and glitter all over the room. She also realizes that there are pictures of the night online and starts to connect the dots on what happened the night before. The chorus repeats the words "last Friday night" and talks about how they danced on tables and took too many shots.
The song appears to be a fun and light-hearted tribute to those crazy nights that everyone has experienced at some point. The lyrics describe the chaos, excitement, and occasional bad decisions of a night out. However, there is also an underlying sense of regret and shame, as the singer discovers evidence of her wild behavior online and realizes that she may have broken the law. The song is catchy and upbeat, with a party anthem feel that encourages listeners to let loose and have fun.
Overall, "Last Friday Night" is a relatable and entertaining depiction of the wild side of youth culture, while also reflecting on the consequences that can arise from excessive partying.

We are even more excited to do the same things again, because for us, the fun, adrenaline-rush and unforgettable experience is worth it.

I get the sense that my car may have been towed during the party because I parked it somewhere it shouldn't be, and I am feeling anxious or frustrated about that.
Chandelier is on the floor
Something dramatic must have happened at the party because even the chandelier in my house is on the floor now.
Ripped my favorite party dress
One of my favorite dresses, which I wore to the party, is now ripped and may not be salvageable.
Warrant's out for my arrest
I have been caught or identified by the police for something I did at the party, and now there is a warrant for my arrest.
Think I need a ginger ale
I want to calm my stomach or my nerves by drinking ginger ale, which is a remedy for nausea or anxiety.

T.G.I.F.
Thank God It's Friday - an acronym indicating excitement for the start of the weekend, when there is more time for socializing and having fun.
