On A Friday Night

Highschool band's friday night

I Smile

The joy is overflowing

Songs
being screamed at the tops of their lungs

this is a Friday night
right after we lost

no matter how good we do
or how bad they do
we still have spirit
we don't dwell
we move on and make it better
we create music
they make touchdowns
we create patterns on the field
they tread the grass
ripping it to shreds



we are off beat
we sing the lyrics
only half way
voices scream

then stop

they keep going
because they forgot

the lyrics to a song

they forgot

how this all is made

because of us
this is what we stand for
they lost their voices

we created them again
just with a little more
spirit
just a little more might
this is the band
On a Friday Night
