Trevor Menear Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Set out your freaks and make em' understand what you're seeking
You're alright in your own way
You're alright in your own way
Go on and give it away
Hey Señora it's your weekend baby, it's your weekend
Won't you be my baby on a weekend, baby on a weekend
I'm alright and you're OK
I'm alright and you're OK
I wanna get you to stay
Hey Señora it's your weekend baby, it's your weekend
You're alright in your own way
You're alright in your own way
I wanna get you to stay
Hey Señora it's your weekend baby, it's your weekend
