There are a few things certain in this life – and one of them is the brutal call of Monday morning.
The alarm kicks in and the usual nine till five begins… There’s no escaping it.
But hey! Let’s leap forward and look towards the weekend instead! If there was ever a tune to help us feel upbeat, then The Cure’s ‘Friday I’m in Love’ is it.
Name-checking all the days of the week, the song starts off bleak but gets more and more positive – reminding us that the weekend is only a few days away.
The single was a massive hit in the UK – reaching number six in the charts – and helped gain them a world-wide audience.
Listen to it twice and it will be stuck in your head all week! If you know a catchier tune, email it in…

I don’t care if Monday’s blue
Tuesday’s grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don’t care about you
It’s Friday I’m in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn’t even start
It’s Friday I’m in love

Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate…

I don’t care if Monday’s black
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack
Thursday never looking back
It’s Friday I’m in love

Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday watch the walls instead
It’s Friday I’m in love

Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate…

Dressed up to the eyes
It’s a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It’s such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It’s Friday I’m in love

I don’t care if Monday’s blue
Tuesday’s grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don’t care about you
It’s Friday, I’m in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn’t even start
It’s Friday I’m in love
