The street outside my window is quiet.  The wailing sirens recede into the night.  My eyes are tired; I may drift off to sleep…

familiar chords and a distinctive voice reach through the darkness:

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn’t even start
It’s Friday I’m in love*

I smile and drift a little more.

Does anyone not do a little imaginary dance when they hear this song?
