Song lyrics

It's getting late, have yer seen my mates?
Ma tell me when the boys get here,
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer.

My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady she don't care.
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair.

Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline.
Saturday night's alright for fighting,
Get a little action in.

Get about as oiled as a diesel train,
Gonna set this dance alight,
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like,
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright.

Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight.
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right,
I may use a little muscle to get what I need.
I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!"

A couple of the sound that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike,
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass.
