[Verse 1]
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-crowd's gay young faces
Have been washed away by too many through the nights and days

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

[Verse 2]
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

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

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

[Outro]
Saturday's child, who used to say
Saturday's child
