Saturday Morning
Who's gonna play with me?
Six in the morning, baby
I got a long, long day ahead of me
The parents are sleeping soundly
The neighbors are dead as wood
I'm getting up and coming over
We gonna rock the neighborhood
Nothing's ever gonna happen 'round here
If we don't make it happen
Sleep away the day if you want to
But I got something that I gotta do
It's Saturday Morning
And this ain't the place for me
I'm giving you warning, baby
We got a whole big, fat world to see
Nothing's ever gonna happen 'round here
If we don't make it happen
Sleep away the day if you want to
But I got something that I gotta do
It's Saturday Morning
And who's gonna play with me?
Six in the morning, baby
I got a long, long day ahead of me
Saturday Morning
Saturday Morning

Q: "Saturday Morning", about being
bored when you're a kid and your parents
aren't awake yet, must be unique in its
subject matter.
E: I've been thinking about that lately.
That feeling of being eight years old and a
day seems like a year. You wake up early on
Saturday and it'll be three hours before
you can even go to your friend's house to
play. It seems like a small moment now, but
it was such a big deal then. Do you
remember a show called Lancelot Link:
Secret Chimp?
Q: No.
E: It was like Get Smart, but with chimps.
I remember watching that show at 6 a.m. and
when it was over, thinking, 'What am I
going to do now?' I recently bought a tape
of the show as research. I do a lot of
research for my songs.
