Saturday
The Rocket Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't tryin' asking
Cause I never know what to say
Except just everything
A few minutes later in the day
How come everybody else seems so happy
And have intelligent things to say
Cause you know that isn't me
I think I'd be happy if it was a Saturday

And yeah if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be OK

Cause then I would start
To try to find a way to say
Hey there you are
I need to find a way to be and sound smart
I need to find a way but man it's so hard
I need to think it's just not anything will do
I need to think this time
Just time for me and you
To be in phrase that I would always use
In the context like I belong to you

And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be ok
And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better than was today, is today

I would surely say that
That I'd be here for you
And I hope that you'd be too
And I'll tell the truth
Say that I need you
Yeah I do
But I know you might not come
But I need you everywhere
Take a breath and close my eyes
And just think about this and say

I need you please to save me
I want to be your baby
I want to see you and me
Together this Saturday

And yea if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better in every way, every way
And I would be OK
And yeah if only it was Saturday, Saturday
Things would be better than was today, is today
And I would surely say




All the times I've been afraid
Well I'm gonna make it this Saturday
