Mix - general - The space of a week

Medium: General
Subject: Days
Title: The space of a week
Warnings: Weird Al being Weird Al.

One song for each day of the week, plus a couple of extras. Chosen for the titles, not the lyrics, but they seem to get more upbeat as the week goes on.

♦ barenaked ladies - one week

It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault, not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry




♦ michael crawford - tell me on a sunday

Let me down easy, no big song and dance
No long faces, no long looks, no deep conversation
I know the way we should spend the day
Take me to a zoo that's got chimpanzees
Tell me on a Sunday please




♦ emmy rossum - rainy days and mondays

Talking to myself and feeling old
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothing ever seems to fit
Hanging around, nothing to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down




♦ steve perry - tuesday heartache

I wanna love ya
You want disaster
Darling it's oh
Oh the last time

Tuesday heartache
Love comes love goes




♦ tori amos - wednesday

Nothing here to fear
I'm just sitting around being foolish when there is work to be done
Just a hang-up call
And the quiet breathing of our Persian we call Cajun on a Wednesday




♦ david bowie - thursday's child

Now that I've really got a chance
Everything's falling into place
Seeing my past to let it go
Only for you I don't regret
That I was Thursday's Child




♦ the cure - friday i'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love




♦ bon jovi - someday i'll be saturday night

Hey, man, I'm alive
I'm takin' each day and night at a time
Yeah I'm down, but I know I'll get by
Hey hey hey hey, man, gotta live my life
Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice
I'm feelin' like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night




♦ loverboy - working for the weekend

Everybody's working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance
Everybody's going off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh




♦ bonus: weird al - one week

It's been one week since we got to see
Cheatin' lovers and cousins that marry
Five days since they had the show
With the hermaphrodite, the slut, and the crack ho
Three days since we heard the tale
About the guy who learned his woman was a she-male
Yesterday it occurred to me
That I've been watchin' a bit too much Jerry Springer
