Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get out the way things are coming alive
Look over there, another fight
I guess I should've seen the warning signs
We could be together
(I'm not looking for a fight)
Change the world forever
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the...)
Eye-ey-eye-ey-eye-ey-eye
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
The walls are growing ears
I'm paranoid
No need to fear what you can't avoid
Don't let 'em in, don't let 'em out
I'll give you something you can scream about
We could be together
(I'm not looking for a fight)
Change the world forever
(Just wanna make it through the night)
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the...)
Eye-ey-eye-ey-eye-ey-eye
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it
No, no, no nothing's wrong with dreaming
Go, go, go you're dreaming all away
One love, one life, and that's enough to get you through the night
Tomorrow's gonna be a brighter day
Hey, hey, hey!
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
We could be together
Change the world forever
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the)

No, no, no nothing's wrong with dreaming
Go, go, go you're dreaming all away
One love, one life, and that's enough to get you through the night
Tomorrow's gonna be a brighter day
Hey, hey, hey!
They come alive when I work the nights
I guess I should've seen the warning signs
The McFly song "Friday Night" appears to be about a night out that has gone a bit too far, as the singer is struggling with the after-effects of partying too hard. He talks about sleeping through the day after working all night, and seeing signs of trouble brewing all around him. Despite this, he seems to be desperate to keep the good times going, and clings onto the hope that things will get better in the future.
The lyrics suggest that the singer is feeling paranoid and anxious, as he describes walls that "have ears" and feels like he is about to "lose it". However, there is also a sense of hope and determination throughout the song, as the chorus repeats the phrase "we could be together", suggesting that the singer is looking for a way to connect with others and work through his problems.
Overall, "Friday Night" is a fun, upbeat song that captures the excitement and exhaustion of a night out with friends. Despite the challenges and potential dangers, the singer remains optimistic and determined to make the most of his time.

Im not a massive fan of their new material but every now and then i hear a classic and remember why mcfly were my favourite band growing up.
sjenhdh bkshd
You wanna look out, their next album is supposed to be like radioactive
Adam Knight
Power To Play brand new release definitely the best album of their career so far and by a country mile.
Adam Knight
@sjenhdh bkshd It's about 10,000 times better 😂
It actually sounds like authentic Arena-Rock not cheesy and goofy Pop-Punk with inept production clearly aimed at the weeny Pop boyband market.
At least when Busted released Halfway There it sounded like an authentic Pop-Punk record a.k.a; Blink-182, Green Day, Ash even the more commercial elements of Foo Fighters
Power To Play by McFly however sounds more like; Def Leppard, Van Halan, Whitesnake, Kiss and even hints of Bruce Springsteen and frankly it's totally fucking awesome 👌
Cheaper Than Therapy
Steven in stereo’s reaction to this will be fantastic. This sounds insane live
Danielle Rice
