Suicide Saturday Lyrics

I heard it told by her mother old
She could try, she could try it
With the power of tin and a bottle of gin
She was wise, she was wise to it
Cocked her father's gun, like the oldest son
She could try, she could try it
Blessed by the bed where she laid her
Head and calmed to a dull roar

Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
It was a suicide Saturday
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
In a summertime kind of way
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
It was a suicide Saturday
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
In a summertime kind of way

She felled the streets 'til
She heard the screams
She could drive, she could drive it
That was where she'd buy her time, yeah
Her friends were crazed in the solemn rains
She could try, she could try it
I met her once, she was tight, she was tight
She was tight, she was tight
She was tight as hell

Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
It was a suicide Saturday
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
In a summertime kind of way
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
It was a suicide Saturday
Oh oh, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
In a summertime kind of way

Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now for me
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now for
Me, for me, for me, yeah
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now for
Me, for me, for me, yeah
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now for
Me, for me, for me, yeah
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now
Oh don't you wait now for me

What is the Meaning of Suicide Saturday?

This poignant track weaves a narrative of despair and desperation, seen through the lens of a young woman's struggle. The repeated references to "suicide Saturday" suggest a tragic event or turning point that occurred on this day, forever marking it with sorrow. The song subtly touches upon themes of mental health and societal pressures, encapsulated in the line "she could try, she could try it." This may indicate her attempts to conform or cope with her circumstances. The lyric "in a summertime kind of way" perhaps implies an unexpected heaviness during what should be a carefree period. The refrain "Oh don't you wait now for me" conveys a sense of urgency and plea for understanding, further emphasizing the emotional intensity of the song.
