Friday I’m In Love
Phoebe Bridgers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday, break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday, never hesitate

I don't care if Monday's black
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack
Oh, Thursday never looking back
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
Friday, never hesitate

Dressed up to the eyes
It's such a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirit's rise
Throwing out your frown smile at the sound
As sleek as a shriek spinning round and round
Always take a big bite such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday I'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart




Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love

Overall Meaning

The imagery of throwing out a frown and smiling at the sound implies a transformation from sadness to happiness.

Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start

Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate
I don't care if Monday's black

To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown

And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite

This cover reveals the real point of the song so well: If 1/7th of your life is full of love, joy, and positive energy, you can tolerate the 6/7th that’s empty, sad, and boring.

Her and Jeff Buckley both managed to change the songs by putting their own spins on them. Great stuff.
