Heaven (For the Weekend)

[Verse 1]

She's hot and heavy and heaven for the weekend

She's preaching everything that I want to believe in

So we're hopeless and holding onto something golden

We read in S.E. Hinton but know ain't ever showing, so we're

Slicking our hair back and acting like the tough kids

From the side of town that all our friends abandoned

While bad ideas came from the good ideas that we ignore

Would have been better off if we just stayed at home

So next time we're just staying home

[Chorus]

So we've been holding on to something that we

Know ain't ever really coming

So were heading out west

To see the parts of the country that we don't know

Then we lost it all at the casino

The girls here they can't even really drink

They never ever take their little eyes off of me

They're all Montreal bound, mostly around 18

They fit their frames the way pictures hang

Just fighting for some room in the scenery

It's sad and it's strange and it's kinda sexy

[Verse 2]

She walks up to me, both of her eyes closed

Whispers in my ear she doesn't want to spend the night alone

So I look around, not looking all that interested

Two beers in my hand and she lights up a cigarette

Well I don't need her, and I know she don't need me

I see myself with girls across the country

But the night starts getting heavy

When the pills start kicking in

The crowd starts looking like a maze

The situation starts to spin

And she goes home with him

[Chorus]

So we've been holding on to something that we

Know ain't ever really coming

So were heading out west

To see the parts of the country that we don't know

Then we lost it all at the casino

The girls here they can't even really drink

They never ever take their little eyes off of me

They're all Montreal bound, mostly around 18

They fit their frames the way pictures hang

Just fighting for some room in the scenery

It's sad and it's strange and it's kinda sexy

[Bridge]

She's my heaven for the weekend

She's my heaven for the weekend

She's my heaven for the weekend

But she's hell the rest of the week

[Chorus]

So we've been holding on to something that we

Know ain't ever really coming

So were heading out west

To see the parts of the country that we don't know

Then we lost it all at the casino

The girls here they can't even really drink

They never ever take their little eyes off of me

They're all Montreal bound, mostly around 18

They fit their frames the way pictures hang

Just fighting for some room in the scenery

[Outro]

And I swear they don't have any of the dirt they

Think they do on me
