Saturday at midnight See you at the red light Don't want to be alone Saturday at midnight I can't wait for a call It's just not my style Been alone too long But in a little while When night closes in And lights are gettin' bright Makes it all worthwhile Makes it all worthwhile tonight Saturday at midnight See you at the red light (bad scene, man) Don't want to be alone Saturday at midnight I work hard every day Every day of my life My reward is to make a better life 'cause I live for the weekend And what I want to do Is search for that someone So my dreams come true Saturday at midnight See you at the red light (bad scene, man) Don't want to be alone Saturday at midnight There's a lot of things That seem to go round Like the world and the love and the fun There's a lot of things That seem to go round But the girls and the love I get none Saturday at midnight (i don't want to go home) Saturday at midnight I can't wait for a call It's just not my style Been alone too long But in a little while When night closes in And lights are gettin' bright Makes it all worthwhile Makes it all worthwhile tonight Saturday at midnight (ha, ha, ha) See you at the red light (bad scene, man) Don't want to be alone
