Fine On A Friday
"Fine On A Friday"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
Don't know what she's like outside of work
Does she live alone or does she have a man?
I barely notice her 'til the weekend comes
But then I wonder what she's got planned
She always looks so fine on a Friday
My imagination's overbooked
She always looks so fine on a Friday
Her casual look has got me hooked
Our relationship is strictly business
But sometimes I wish it were more
One day a week, I can't help sneakin' a peek
When she's walkin' out the office door
She always looks so fine on a Friday
My imagination's overbooked
She always looks so fine on a Friday
Her casual look has got me hooked
Has she noticed me? I could ask her out and see
It's hard to say what she would think
Deep down I know it would be a mistake
To dip my pen in the company ink, wink, wink
She always looks so fine on a Friday
My imagination's overbooked
She always looks so fine on a Friday
Her casual look has got me hooked, that's all it took
She always looks so fine on a Friday
Can't get any work done on this team
She always looks so fine on a Friday
Her tight jeans make me have daydreams
Is she everything she seems?

There are workplaces in America, probably elsewhere, in which the required clothing started changing in the 90s.Β This concept of "business casual" became commonplace in corporate office environments, and it evolved further to include "casual Friday," a day in which you were permitted to dress down and be a little more casual than M-Th.Β One way this was interpreted in practice was that people would wear jeans on Fridays, whereas from Monday through Thursday, they would not.Β Β
As a "casual" observer of this cultural phenomenon, I learned that many women in these environments who would otherwise appear serious and boring and even stuffy or nerdy during the week would all of a sudden look pretty sexy on Fridays, highlighted by the wearing of tight jeans.Β It made you take notice of them, when otherwise you wouldn't.Β Upon taking notice, you'd then think of them in a different way, where instead of being just a professional business woman, you thought of them as potentially being someone who liked to have fun outside the workplace, perhaps even having a wild side.Β Β
This would then make you wonder what kind of things they had planned for that Friday after work, and what kind of things they got into doing in their free time.Β The fantasizing might take off from there.Β That's what this song is all about, and that's what I was thinking about when I wrote it.
