We held a funeral for a Friday night
That never learned how to end
You wore black lipstick and said
"Every good party needs a ghost"
You gave your eulogy in a gas station bathroom
And when the funeral ended
You turned the music back on
I took a bath in my clothes
When I got home and let them hang to dry
But you stayed up and slept in late the next day
And then we woke up the same way
We held a funeral for a Friday night
That never learned how to end
You wore black lipstick and said
"Every good party needs a ghost"
I brought flowers for the centerpiece
And they all fell off the stems
We couldn't keep it down
So we kept it going
Then I passed out on the couch
You went outside for a walk
And when the sun came up
You turned the music back on
I took a bath in my clothes
When I got home and let them hang to dry
But you stayed up and slept in late the next day
And then we woke up the same way
We held a funeral for a Friday night
That never learned how to end
You wore black lipstick and said
"Every good party needs a ghost"
