Hey, man, I´m alive
I´m taking each day and night at a time
I´m feeling like a Monday, but someday I´ll be Saturday night

Hey my name is Jim, where did I go wrong?
My life´s a bargain basement and all the good shit´s gone
Just can´t hold a job, where do I belong?
Been sleeping in my car, my dreams moved on
My name is Billie Jean, my love is bought and sold
I´m only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
My foster daddy went, took my innocence away
The street life ain´t much better, but at least I´m getting paid

And Tuesday just might go my way
Can´t get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain´t been kind
But somehow I´ll survive

Hey, man, I´m alive!

I´m taking 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 nothing but this roll of the dice
I´m feeling like a Monday, but someday I´ll be Saturday night

Now I can´t say my name or tell you where I am
I want to blow myself away, don´t know if I can
I wish that I could be in some other time and place
With someone else´s soul, someone else´s face

And Tuesday just might go my way
Can´t get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain´t been kind
But somehow I´ll survive

Hey, man, I´m alive!
I´m taking each day and night at a time
Yeah I´m down, but I know I´ll get by
Hey hey hey hey, man, I gotta live my life
I´m gonna pick up all the pieces and what´s left of my pride
I´m feeling like a Monday, but someday I´ll be Saturday night

Someday I´ll be Saturday night
I´ll be back on my feet, I´ll be doing all right
It may not be tomorrow, baby, that´s okay
I ain´t going down, I´m gonna find a way!

Hey, man, I´m alive!
I´m taking 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 nothing but this roll of the dice
I´m feeling like a Monday, but someday I´ll be Saturday night
