Friday's child is planning to go out for the first time
Says: Don't worry, mum, I won't be out that late
Can't be playing those passive games right now, they're out of date
You're awfully sweet
Haven't got the time, growing up so fast, got better things to do

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la

Kicking around in the centre of the town, looking in shop windows
Those mannequins look far too real at night
Friday's child doesn't know if it's awake or if it's dreaming
Says: Don't worry, dad
I'll do my bit, I'll raise the flag, I'll be just like you

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la

Don't worry, mum, I'm not that dumb, I'll be just like you

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely, oh-oh, la-la-la

We all know why, why you do it
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
We all know why, why you do it
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
We all know why, why you do it
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
