There's a stranger in my bed
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool

I smell like a mini bar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbies on the barbecue
Is this a hickey or a bruise?

PRE-CHORUS
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 forgot?!
Last Friday night
Yeah, we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a ménage à trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop-op (woah-oh)
But this Friday night, do it all again
But this Friday night, do it all again

Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor

Ripped my favourite party dress
Warrants out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail!

PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

This Friday night
Do it all again!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!
T.G.I.F.!

Meaning, Main Idea, and Message of The Song

Well, it's quite difficult to tell in a few words. However, I think in general the song tells us about urban and celebrity lifestyle who are fond of spending their weekend wildly.

Story of the Song
The song is opened with the description of what the singer sees or feels. The description, however, is likely the result of what she has been done the night before. So what has she done the night before? The answer can be found in the third, fourth, and fifth verses which all begin with the phrase 'Last Friday night.'

Yes, the last Friday night the singer and her spouse danced on the tabletops and then drank to much that they lost their mind. They also used their credit card beyond the limit and hence they got kicked out of the bar and finally they spent their night in the boulevard. And at the end, they broke the law.

All of those things seem to be done out of mind. When all of those things are captured by someone and spread over the internet and all the world can see their wildness, she showed a little regret as it is proven by the second lyric.

However, with all those bad things she got, she still don't take any lesson from this experience. She still wants to do the same when another Friday night comes again as it is shown in the following verse:

This Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again

Finally, yes this is the song for those who always wait for Friday night and say "Thanks God It's Friday (TGIF)"

Well, that's my interpretation of Katy Perry 's Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F) song. What do you say?
