I got me a brand new car, waitin' in the driveway
Shining like a bright new star
Been wishin' on it everyday
To take me away from here.
So I called into where I worked
Told a little white lie
No, my back don't really hurt, but that's my aliby
My temporary ticket to anywhere but there
Call it an early weekend, call it goin' off the deep end
Call it what you want I've made up my mind
I dont have to be me til Monday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
I aint gonna face reallity
3 days without punchin a time clock, 3 nights goin non-stop
No work, all play! I dont have to be me til Monday!

Yeah! I can do what I wanna do. Be who I wanna be
I got no one to answer to, soon as I turn the key
A cash machine, gasoline, and we're outta here.

Call it an early weekend
Call it goin'off the deep end
Baby you and me, we can leave it all behind
I dont have to be me til Monday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday
I aint gonna face reallity
3 days without punchin' a time clock, 3 night goin non-stop
No work, all play! I dont have to be me til Monday!

Oh...3 days without punchin' a time clock, 3 nights goin non-stop
No work, all play! I dont have to be me til Monday! I dont haveta
be me....I dont have to be me til Monday! I dont have to be me....
I dont have to be me til Monday! I dont have to be me....I dont have to
be me til Monday!
