Friday's child is planning to go out for the first time Says, Don't worry mum I won't be out that late Done me playing those passive games right now They're out of date You're awfully sweet Haven't got the time Growing up so fast Got better things to do You can get what you want So young and lovely Kicking around in the centre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 So young and lovely Don't worry mum I'm not that dumb I'll be just like you Oh, no, why Why'd you do it?
