Kevin and the Bikes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're fooling around, had a hell of a fight
She packed her bags and headed out my door
Said she never wants to see me anymore
And I said
That's ok, there's other fish in the sea
No shortage of women trying to get with me
But you ain't coming back, girl, this time I swear
So I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
Sittin' at home on a Friday
Sittin' alone on a Friday
I got the blues today
Went back inside and got my "Little Black Book"
Thumbed through the pages to take a look
Now Candy's cute, Naomi's mighty fine
And Britney's got those eyes that just blow my mind
All these girls that I used to know
Won't take the time to even answer the phone
Now I'm sittin' at home, just my guitar and me
Wond'rin' why ain't nobody wanna shake my tree
So I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
Sittin' at home on a Friday
Sittin' alone on a Friday
The blues won't go away
It's time to leave and find another town
Where my bad reputation ain't done gone around
Find a woman who wants to take a chance
Take her back to my house for a private dance
No sittin' at home on a Friday
Won't be sittin' home on a Friday
Won't be alone on a Friday
The blues are going away
But I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
I'm sittin' alone

Me and my baby the other night
My significant other and I were together recently
We're fooling around, had a hell of a fight
We were intimate but ended up having a serious argument
She packed her bags and headed out my door
She left my place after our fight
Said she never wants to see me anymore
She expressed her desire to never see me again
That's ok, there's other fish in the sea
It's alright, there are plenty of other potential romantic partners
No shortage of women trying to get with me
I have many women pursuing a relationship with me
Go on and leave, baby, see if I care
You can go ahead and leave, I won't be affected
But you ain't coming back, girl, this time I swear
You won't be returning, I promise
So I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
Now I find myself sitting alone at home on a Friday
I got the blues today
I'm feeling sad and down today
Went back inside and got my "Little Black Book"
I went back inside my house to retrieve a book containing names of potential romantic partners
Thumbed through the pages to take a look
I flipped through the pages to see who I could contact
Now Candy's cute, Naomi's mighty fine
Candy is attractive, and Naomi is extremely good-looking
And Britney's got those eyes that just blow my mind
Britney's eyes are so captivating and impressive
All these girls that I used to know
These are the women I used to be acquainted with
Won't take the time to even answer the phone
They don't bother answering my phone calls
Now I'm sittin' at home, just my guitar and me
Now I find myself sitting alone at home with only my guitar
Wond'rin' why ain't nobody wanna shake my tree
Wondering why no one is interested in pursuing a relationship with me
It's time to leave and find another town
It's time for me to relocate and start fresh in a new place
Where my bad reputation ain't done gone around
I want to go somewhere where my negative image hasn't spread yet
Find a woman who wants to take a chance
I hope to meet a woman who is willing to take a risk with me
Take her back to my house for a private dance
Bring her back to my place for an intimate encounter
No sittin' at home on a Friday
I won't be sitting at home alone on a Friday anymore
Won't be alone on a Friday
I won't feel lonely on a Friday
The blues are going away
The feeling of sadness is dissipating
But I'm sittin' at home on a Friday
Nevertheless, I'm still sitting at home alone on a Friday
I'm sittin' alone
I'm feeling isolated
