Chop Off Friday

[Verse 1]
Alarm clock screaming at seven A.M.
Here comes Monday, doing it again
Five straight days of chalkboards and tests
We’re running out of steam, man, we need some rest

[Pre-Chorus]
By Thursday afternoon our brains are totally fried
We’re just barely surviving, waiting for the tide
Count down the hours till the bell starts to ring
It’s time to change the system, time to try a new thing!

[Chorus]
So chop off Friday, make the weekend three!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Friday, Saturday, Sunday in a row
Give us one more day to breathe and let go
Chop off Friday, hear the whole class agree!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Pack up the books, let the good times begin
Monday can wait till the week rolls in

[Verse 2]
No more half-closed eyes by the final bell
No more counting tiles in the hallway as we shuffle to class
Give every tired brain a little room to grow
A longer weekend means we come back ready to go

[Pre-Chorus]
By Thursday afternoon we’ve got nothing left to spare
But Friday’s sitting there like a bright and open chair
Count down the hours till the bell starts to ring
It’s time to change the system, time to try a new thing!

[Chorus]
So chop off Friday, make the weekend three!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Friday, Saturday, Sunday in a row
Give us one more day to breathe and let go
Chop off Friday, hear the whole class agree!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Pack up the books, let the good times begin
Monday can wait till the week rolls in

[Bridge]
Raise your hand if you’re ready for a break
Raise your voice for a smarter choice to make
One extra day, and we’ll bring our best
Less worn-out faces, more time to rest

[Final Chorus]
So chop off Friday, make the weekend three!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Friday, Saturday, Sunday in a row
Give us one more day to breathe and let go
Chop off Friday, hear the whole class agree!
Four days of school is how it oughta be!
Pack up the books, let the good times begin
Monday can wait till the week rolls in

[Outro]
Friday, Saturday, Sunday in a row
Four days of school—now everybody knows!
