Blue Flashing Light

Travis

Saturday evening
Saturday evening at quarter to five
I would see you arrive at the door
Pushed you aside as he staggered inside
Spitting alcohol all over the floor

A storm is a-brewing
It’s sure to fall soon
As I look at you from the shore
So you better hold on
Cause it’s Saturday night
And your friends are all out
And you feel like shit
Because they never called you
No they never bloody called you
No they never bloody call
Never call anybody ever

Call me a name and I’ll hit you again
You’re a slut, you’re a bitch, you’re a whore
Talk to your Daddy in that tone of voice
There’s a belt hanging over the door

So you run to your room
And you hide in your room
Thinking how you could settle the score

But it’s Saturday night
At a quarter to six
And your friends are all out
And you live in the sticks
Still they never called you
No they never bloody call you
No they never bloody call
Never call anybody ever

Blue Flashing Light last Saturday night
Brought the neighbours all our on the street
Watched as the firemen carried you out
And then stared at eachother’s feet
Now everyone sees and yet nobody says
Are we all just afraid of the heat?

But its Saturday night
And I’m lying alone
In the bed that I made
Disconnected the phone
Still they never called you

No they never called you
No they never call
Never call
Nobody bloody ever calls
Nobody bloody ever
Never do
Never do
