[Verse 1]
The rebel of yesterday, tomorrow's fool
Who are you kidding, being that cool?
Trying to break away from running with the pack
But they ain't listening, so you've gotta go back
[Pre-Chorus]
You're a weekend warrior
When you're one of the crowd
But it's over
Just look at you now...
Look at you now...
Just look at you now...
Just look at you now...
[Verse 2]
You're not so brave, the way you behave
It makes you sick, gotta get out quick
It's all bravado when you're out with your mates
It's like a different person goes through those gates
[Pre-Chorus]
And the game begins
The adrenaline's high
Feel the tension
Maybe someone will die...
Someone will die...
Someone will die...
Maybe someone will die...
[Chorus]
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you ain't that way anymore
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you ain't that way anymore
[Verse 3]
You've gotta get out, gotta get away
But you're in with a clique; it's not easy to stray
You've gotta admit, you're just living a lie
It didn't take long to work out why
[Pre-Chorus]
It's hard to say why you got involved
Just wanting to be part
Just wanting to belong...
To belong...
To belong...
To belong, yeah
[Chorus]
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you ain't that way anymore
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you ain't that way anymore
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Some of the things that you've done, you feel so ashamed
After all, it's only a game... isn't it?
And after all the adrenaline's gone
What you gonna do on Monday?
[Pre-Chorus]
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
On Monday
[Chorus]
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you ain't that way anymore
A weekend warrior lately
A weekend warrior sometimes
A weekend warrior, maybe you were never like that at all
