All the pretty girls on a Saturday nightSo I call, your name
Cross my fingers, uncross the others
Hesitate, oh I don't think straight
With nothin' to proveI don't wanna say I'm leavin'
I'll stay until the weekend
You can take all the things, the boxes and rings
And get goin''Cause I've been waitin' forAll the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shakin' me downSo I call (I call) you out (out baby)
Just to feel a little bit better about myself (he does)
I do (you do), baby
I do, I do, I doUntil their lips start to move
And their friends talk music
I'll say "I've never heard the tune."
But I have, I just hate the band
'Cause they remind me of youEvery single night ends up the same
I don't say much at all, but I bring up your name
(Over and over and over)
I think it's striking me outAll the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me downBut not you,
You still wear boots and your hair is too long
And then this one, doesn't wanna admit she's fallin' in love
Oh c'mon, oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you ?Ha !I don't understand your reasons
Please just stay over the weekend
You can't take all those things
They define you and me
Everything we've become
You're all that I need
Please don't make me face my generation aloneAll the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
And you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shakin' me downBut not you,
I feel your faith is destroying the world
And then this one, never really understood
The 80's is over and done
Oh c'mon, what's a boy to do,
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you ?Say
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
