SATURDAY'S CHILD
(Scott Engel)


The Walker Brothers - 1966





Don't stop, don't turn around
It's just a lonely clown who keeps callin'
But you've grown quite out of love with him

The city's endless nights
The in-crowds gay young faces have been washed away
By too many through the night and day

Saturday's child who used to say
That you could dance the world away
Saturday's child just hangs her head and cries today

How could you be so blind
Just wakin' up to find what a fool you were
'Cause you let 'em break your heart

You turn, you break, you bend
You're left without a friend
When you seemed to have so many at the start

Saturday's child who used to say
That you could dance the world away
Saturday's child just hangs her head and cries today

Saturday's child who used to say
That you could dance the world away
Saturday's child just hangs her head and cries today

Saturday's child who used to say
That you could dance the world away
Saturday's child just hangs her head and cries today

Saturday's child ............ FADE
