lyrics

There's a feeling that I know
A bland repeat malaise
A never ending grind of work
Of chores and long week days
A Monday morning state of mind
The cycle starts again
A life spent always waiting for
The next weekend

I'm gonna sleep until the afternoon
Round up my friends and drink all night
We wait so long and then it's gone so soon
We'll use these nights to make it right

It's finally Friday night again
Come over and retreat
To throw away the burdens of
Your every other week
The empty bottles on the lawn
Priceless nights with friends
With bloodshot eyes, a smile or two
We'll take it back again

I'm gonna sleep until the afternoon
Round up my friends and drink all night
We wait so long and then it's gone so soon
We'll use these nights to make it right

Sunday is a bummer, it's a dragger
Minutes counting down now, even faster
Nipping at your brain now is evil laughter
Keep your head down, you're happy never after

Sunday is a bummer, it's a dragger
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
Minutes counting down now, even faster
(One more week, sad so long)
Nipping at your brain now is evil laughter
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
Keep your head down, you're happy never after
(One more week, sad so long)

I'm gonna sleep until the afternoon
Round up my friends and drink all night
We wait so long and then it's gone so soon
(Sunday is a bummer it's a dragger)
(Minutes counting down now, even faster)
We'll use these nights to make it right
(Nipping at your brain now is evil laughter)
(Keep your head down, you're happy never after)

Sunday is a bummer, it's a dragger
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
(We'll make it right)
Minutes counting down now, even faster
(One more week, sad so long)
(We'll make it right)
Nipping at your brain now is evil laughter
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
(We'll make it right)
Keep your head down, you're happy never after
(One more week, sad so long)
(We'll make it right)

Sunday is a bummer, it's a dragger
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
(We'll make it right)
Minutes counting down now, even faster
(One more week, sad so long)
(We'll make it right)
Nipping at your brain now is evil laughter
('Til next week, and I'm gone)
(We'll make it right)
Keep your head down, you're happy never after
(One more week, sad so long)
(We'll make it right)

about

The Scratches image

The Scratches Columbus, Ohio

The Scratches are a melodic punk band from Columbus, Ohio. They're bringing back pop-punk from before it was a dirty word, mixing in plenty of catchy hooks with skate punk double time rhythms, ripping melodic bass lines, tag team vocals, and 4 part harmonies. It’s fun, it’s catchy, and it’s the real deal.
