I don’t care what these commentators say
I swear I don’t care
for what difference do they make?
I go where I go
and I get there fast
Don’t stop me, I know
that it’s not gonna last

Forever, forever
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
Forever, forever
(Saturday night, Saturday night)

If you see someone gorgeous then you think
Am I in with a chance? Should I try? Buy a drink?
Or maybe it’s too much like hard work tonight
but if they look my way I might be all right

Forever, forever
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
Forever, forever
(Saturday night, Saturday night)
