“Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” is a song and music video by American recording artist Katy Perry. It is the fifth single from Perry’s third studio album, Teenage Dream by Capitol.
The song was written by Perry, Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Bonnie McKee, and was produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin.
“Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” has already peaked at number sixty-three on the Billboard Hot 100 and number forty-nine on theCanadian Hot 100 because of digital sales.
Perry has revealed that she was inspired to write the track after running naked through a park. According to Music Rooms, Perry claims that after a wild night of partying and streaking, she wrote the song about her antics the next day.
Perry revealed: “There’s nothing better than an impromptu dance party with my friends. My track Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) is a song about debauchery because I had one of those nights in Santa Barbara. We went out to this place called Wildcat and got crazy,” Perry admitted: “We had a couple of beers and danced until we died, then brought the party back to the hotel room.” She added: “Most of that song is actual truth, apart from the ménage à trois… unfortunately! But, yes, streaking in the park, that’s what we did, so we had to write a song about it the next day!”
Bonnie McKee, the co-writer of the song stated “TGIF is pretty much a word for word description of our trip to Santa Barbara [with Perry], so I love that one. It’s really kitschy and fun and makes me nostalgic.”
Lyrics for Katy Perry – Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)
[Verse 1:]
There’s a stranger in my bed,
There’s a pounding my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ’s passed out in the yard
Barbie’s on the barbecue
There’s a hickie or a bruise[Hook:]
Pictures of last night
Eended up online
I’m screwed
Oh well
It’s a black top blur
But I’m pretty sure it ruledDamn
[Chorus:]
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on tabletops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgotLast Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevardLast Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a menage a trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we’re gonna stop-op
Whoa-oh-oahThis Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again[Verse 2:]
Trying to connect the dots
Don’t know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor
With my favorite party dress
Warrants out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail[Hook:]
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I’m screwed
Oh well
It’s a blacked out blur
But I’m pretty sure it ruled
Damn[Chorus:]
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgotLast Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credits card
And got kicked out of the bars
So we hit the boulevardsLast Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping int he dark
Then had a menage a trois
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we’re gonna stop-op
Oh whoa ohThis Friday night
Do it all again
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again
Do it all again
This Friday nightT.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.[Chorus:]
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgotLast Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevardLast Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a menage a troisLast Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we’re gonna stop
Oh-whoa-oh
This Friday night
Do it all again
