[verse 1: frank]
nothing’s gonna stop the sun from shinin’
nothing’s going to stop this beautiful day
oh well, the weather might be wicked
and the water often rough
but twice or more a month
here we get to fill our cup

[verse 2: company]
every other friday in the morning
a sense of celebration fills the air
and every son, every daughter, every husband, every wife
joins the congregation, you can feel it come to life
[frank, speaking]
yvon, my fine franco friend. comment ça va?

[yvon]
ah, ça va [?]

[frank]
lovеly evening in tell talе harbour with a paycheque in me pocket
couldn’t be more bien

[vera]

[frank]
first round’s on mr. hockle

[yvon]
ha ha!

[verse 3]
[frank]
barb my love, you knows we’re going dancin’
it’s cash o’clock it’s going to be a time

[woman]
there’s a note for every table
you might also like
[man]
and a fish for every line

[company]
we’re going to raise a glass until we’re happy+hour high

[verse 4]
[barbara?]
friday flock are following their pastor
and he loves to see them falling in behind

[company]
we swear that we’ll believe in any prayer we’ve got to say
that every hallelujah hand is waving here today

[chorus]
so let the bells all ring and the holy hour begin
we’ll close our eyes and pray for heyday
let the devils and their sins and the choir of angels in
‘cus’ everybody sings on payday
everybody sings on payday

[woman, speaking]
did you hear? comfort cove is resettling!

[woman]
a bit close to home, lost the fish plant, that’s all she wrote!
[bridge]
[women]
so hold on to this harbour, for these places are so dear
though holding on is harder, as they daily disappear

[men]
they say our days are numbered, that these places won’t survive

[company]
but these faces all are beamin’ now
‘cus’ payday is for dreamin’
we can keep the dream alive!

[frank, speaking]
kathleen, please put my paycheque against the count, and if i could have mr. heckle’s old+age pension cheque in cash

mr. hockle can’t come in himself?

[frank]
oh no, not at all, he’s ah under the weather

[kathleen]
huh, yeah, six feet under
i told you last month that i would also require a piece of identifica+
small game license?
for a man who reached ninety years of age, mr. hockle bears a striking resemblance to a gordie howe rookie card

[frank]

[kathleen]
ugh

[frank]
a lot of good+looking men

[bridge 2: kathleen]
i roll my eyes to all their lies
and shams the likes of these
i promised mom i’d let them carry on
with their counterfeit ids
your future can’t be forgery
and every time i bend
i know so well that time will tell me
over and over again!
and again!

[verse 5: frank]
oh, nothing’s gonna stop the sun from shinin’
nothing’s going to stop this beautiful day
oh the weather may be wicked
and the water often rough
but twice or more a month
[?] we get to fill our cup

[company, speaking]
we’re all dying to make a living
‘cus’ we’re given to living it up!

[chorus]
so let the bells all ring and the holy hour begin
we’ll close our eyes and pray for heyday
let the devils and their sins and the choir of angels in
‘cus’ everybody sings on payday
everybody sings on payday!

[outro]
everybody sings, everybody sings, everybody
everybody sings, everybody sings

[frank]
everybody sings on payday

[company]
and let the bells all ring (everybody sings, everybody sings, everybody sings)

[kathleen]
ohh, ohh
ohh, ohh

[frank]
everybody sings on payday

[company]
and let the bells all ring (everybody sings, everybody sings, everybody sings)

[kathleen]
ohh, ohh

[frank]
everybody sings on payday

[company]
and let the bells all ring (everybody sings, everybody sings, everybody sings)

[kathleen]
ohh, ohh
ohh, ohh

[company]
everybody sings on payday
everybody sings on payday!
