Lyrics: Prayer for the Weekend

Ooooh oooooh oooooh...

Come, baby
It's time to pray

Come it's time to pray for the weekend, babe
Come it's time to jump in at the deep end, babe
It opens up its jaws it's panting like a hound
So, we'll pick the fleurs du mal and we'll bind it a crown

(Pray!)

Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)

It hovers like an eagle, it's growling like a beast
Demanding our sacrifice, but offering a feast
It's calling out for blood and we must quench its thirst
The night is calling all it's dusky children back to work

(But first... Pray!)

Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, ooh, oooh...
Come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Come, make your claim for a better day
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, let's pray for the weekend, babe
(Nanana nana nana nanana)
Ooh, come, make your claim for the holiday
(Nanana nana nana nanana)

Ooh, let's pray that the weekend will thrill us, babe
Ooh, let's pray that the weekend won't kill us, babe
Hooray!
