Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Saturday arrives (Saturday arrives)
Goin' down into the town
Collected the keys, I bought some food and we walked around
[Verse 2]
Waved hello (Hello)
As the train pulled in
(Time is running out, time is running out)
(Time is running out, time is running out)
(Time is running out)
[Verse 3]
The room with the view also had the hard bed
Simon gets the hard bed, so he gets the room with the view
A power cut, the whole town went down
For 30 minutes we were scared, we bought some candles
In the flat for a drink, Sarah played the jukebox
We went up to Spink's, I had the perfect pizza
Dracula was cut short, it was freezing cold
The steps were steep but we ran up them
[Verse 4]
We had the whole damn week ahead of us
We had the whole damn week ahead of us
[Verse 5]
I found a book about the boys depicted as animals
They used to burn down the Manchester fish and chip shops
Allison cheated at scrabble, even then she still lost
You call her a cheat, she gets in a huff
[Verse 6]
Time is running out, time is running out
Time is running out, time is running out
[Verse 7]
First thing in the morning, up and out into town
To get some flowers to get her out of the huff
Came back with lies 'bout how we talked to the fishermen
Breakfast and some flowers that weren't real
[Verse 8]
Staithes was quiet, in Manchester they shout
Burn it down, burn it down
In Bagdale Hall, we were drunk but we knew
Time was running out
[Verse 9]
We had the whole damn week ahead of us
We had the whole damn week ahead of us
[Verse 10]
Saturday arrived (Saturday arrived)
Up and out into the town
Dropped off the keys, I took some food and we walked hers down
[Verse 11]
Waved bye bye (Bye bye)
As the train pulled out
