Friday
Mike T Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you want a ride home
Back to his place you could go
Away from that asshole
You are drunk you wanna go
Any where but your home
Get away from this asshole
Take his atv and drive it fast
With that Jeep on your ass
Everyone drunk for the crash
Taste of asphalt and then grass
They cover it up as they come down
They left you in the filthy ground
Not till the neighbor can out
Only then were you found
Neither of them even called for help
They swore not to tell anyone else
Life in prison would serve them well
Suffer in their own personal hell
How could you leave her and live with yourself
You were her friend just like everyone else
Now how do I learn to forgive
The people did all of this
So I'll leave some flowers next to the cross
Right in the exact spot
Some time has passed
But know ones forgot
And every single drive home
I think of you alone
Every single Good Friday
I think of the ground where you lay
Oh that Good Friday
For resurrection we have prayed
But no stone has rolled away
Casket was closed after a few days
The lyrics of Mike T's song "Friday" depict a disturbing and tragic story of betrayal, abandonment, and ultimately, loss. The narrative unfolds with the portrayal of a character who is inebriated and offers a ride home to someone in need, seeking to shield them from a troubling situation involving an unwanted presence. The intoxicated state of the individuals involved sets the stage for a series of reckless actions that culminate in a devastating outcome.
As the scene progresses, the lyrics describe a chaotic sequence where an ATV is driven recklessly, followed closely by a Jeep in pursuit. The reckless behavior leads to a harrowing crash, with the aftermath marked by the jarring sensation of impact and the harsh contact with asphalt and grass. The events unfold rapidly, capturing the sense of chaos and danger that ensues when choices made under the influence spiral out of control.
The subsequent verses delve into the consequences of the crash, highlighting the callous actions of those involved who fail to seek help or take responsibility for their actions. The lyrics underscore a profound sense of betrayal and abandonment as the victim is left unattended, lying injured on the ground until eventually discovered by a neighbor. The callous disregard for human life and the failure to act compassionately in a time of crisis further amplify the sense of tragedy and injustice portrayed in the song.
The final verses of the song evoke themes of remorse, grief, and the struggle to find forgiveness in the aftermath of the devastating events. The lyrics convey a sense of profound loss and longing for closure, as the singer grapples with the weight of untold truths and unspoken regrets. The imagery of leaving flowers by a cross serves as a poignant symbol of remembrance and tribute, underscoring the enduring impact of the tragedy on those left behind. The somber reflections on Good Friday and the absence of a miraculous resurrection further underscore the sense of finality and closure that pervades the narrative, leaving a haunting impression on the listener.

Oh he's drunk and he wants to know
He is intoxicated and curious
Do you want a ride home
Do you need a lift back
Back to his place you could go
Possibly heading to his residence
Away from that asshole
Escaping from a troubling situation
You are drunk you wanna go
Inebriated and looking to depart
Any where but your home
Any location except your own house
Get away from this asshole
Escape from the unpleasant person
So to his place you go
Thus, you end up at his residence
Take his atv and drive it fast
Borrow his ATV and speed away
With that Jeep on your ass
Pursued by a vehicle
Everyone drunk for the crash
All individuals intoxicated, leading to an accident
Taste of asphalt and then grass
The experience of hitting the road and ground
They cover it up as they come down
Attempts to conceal the incident
They left you in the filthy ground
Abandoning you in a disgraceful situation
Not till the neighbor can out
Only discovered when a neighbor intervened
Only then were you found
Your whereabouts were revealed only at that moment
Neither of them even called for help
Neither took the initiative to seek aid
They swore not to tell anyone else
Promised to keep the incident secret
Life in prison would serve them well
Imprisonment could be a fitting punishment
Suffer in their own personal hell
Endure their internal torment
How could you leave her and live with yourself
How can you abandon her and bear the guilt
You were her friend just like everyone else
You were a companion like all the rest
Now how do I learn to forgive
How can I find the strength to pardon
The people did all of this
Those who were responsible for these actions
So I'll leave some flowers next to the cross
Placing floral tributes by the memorial
Right in the exact spot
Precisely at the designated location
Some time has passed
A period has gone by
But know ones forgot
No one has forgotten
And every single drive home
Every journey back
I think of you alone
Reflecting on you in solitude
Every single Good Friday
Every Easter Friday
I think of the ground where you lay
Recall the place where you were
Oh that Good Friday
Oh, that memorable Easter Friday
For resurrection we have prayed
We have sought revival
But no stone has rolled away
Yet, no miraculous event occurred
Casket was closed after a few days
The burial took place soon after

Love the style of the video with the fast-frame cuts - it perfectly evokes all the emotions you feel on a Friday...peace, solitude, optimism, nostalgia, escaping thru video games...This is brilliant work for a first video.
