Friday Lyrics by Phish

Round Room

2002

[Verse 1]
I crashed, I burned, but then I learned
To keep my eye on you
You always say you’ll lead the way
But then you never do

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I slowed, I swerved, but lost my nerve
And quickly looked away
When I looked back, the day was black
Then I heard you say

[Chorus 1]
"Why is the sun hot? And why does it rain?
Why is there danger and why is there pain?
Why can’t the burden we carry go away?
And why isn’t it Friday today?"

[Verse 2]
Your lack of trust is hardly just
So do as you’ve been told
Please follow me into the sea
Don’t worry if it’s cold

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I knew right then, my chance again
Had quickly slipped away
I crash, I cry, I burn, but I
Still follow anyway

[Chorus 2]
"Why is the sea cool? Why is it blue?
Why do I stay here? Why is it you?
Notice the danger but don’t help in any way
Why isn’t it Friday today?"

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I knew right then, my chance again
Had quickly slipped away
I crash, I cry, I burn, but I
Still follow anyway

[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Instrumental Outro]
