Lyrics for Saturday Night as interpreted by iampunk

Saturday Night Lyrics
Oooooh oooh!
Whoa oh oh oh!
Noooo oh oh!

There's 52 ways to murder anyone
One and two are the same
And they both work as well
I'm coming clean for Amy
Julie doesn't scream as well
And the cops won't listen all night
And so maybe I'll be over
Just as soon as I fill them all in

And I can't remember when I saw her last
We were running around and having a blast, having a blast
But the backseat of the drive-in is so lonely without you
I know when you're home

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night

As the moon becomes the night time
You go viciously, quietly away
I'm sitting in the bedroom, where we used to sit and smoke cigarettes
Now I'm watching, watching you die (oh oh oh)

I can't remember when I saw her last
We were running around and having a blast
But the backseat (backseat) of the drive-in (drive-in)
Is so lonely without you
I know when you're home

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night

Yeah!
Crying on Saturday night
Crying.... on Saturday.... night!

My friend used to date Amy, Michale Grave's ex. And she says that this song is about Michale doing too much cocaine and not being able to get it up. She broke up with him becasue he used to much... so he says " im coming clean for amy" because he wants to stop using for her.
"whatching you die" is not about him killing her is about killing her memory or about actually watching her die as she became a user after braking up with him. how ironic.

I'm sorry guys but you are all SOOO wrong about this song! He didn't kill anyone. "There are 52 ways to murder anyone", he means there are 52 ways to break anyones heart."One and two are the same", like cheating or falling out of love they hurt just as much. He is coming clean for amy because he used to love her, just like he used to love julie, but amy was the one he was really in love with but he messed it up and is now in love with someone else. However, the girl he is now in love with doesn't want him because he hurt her too. But he says "maybe he'll be over once he fills them all in", all of them are the graves he speaks of earlier, but it's a metaphor for ending his relationships for good with all of these other girls. And so he's "crying on a saturday night.", " the backseat of the drive in is so lonely without you." because he wants to be with this new girl.

I agree with horrore, love this song, one of the few that I really enjoy by graves, the more I listen to it the more I hear the pain in his voice and the creepiness of the whole song makes me love it more.

You all have good thoughts but quite honestly look at it from a sadist point of view, if this was ed gein or albert fish do you think they would be in love with them or the murder? I think he was just reminessing on how he killed her and how muh fun it truly was. Hell yeah he is sad because he can't tear her apart again "Now I'm watching, watching you die" To me this makes more sense then your ideas, but another thing is this is off of Famous Monsters almost all tyhe song are about movies, not sure of this one and I don't think there is a movie about fiend club just about loving horror shit. So think about that and if you find the movie tell me!!!

"I'm coming clean for Amy
Julie doesn't scream as well
And the cops won't listen all night"

he killed amy and julie. he killed amy who probably was his girlfriend and even though he loved her he ended up killing her (for whatever reason). the guy is confessing to the police for his crimes because he feels guilty. he feels guilty over killing amy ("im coming clean for amy") but not julie, because she wasnt as entertaining a kill / maybe fuck ("julie doesnt scream as well"). he then kind of sarcastically mentions that "the cops wont listen all night", basically that he's only gonna talk about amy, who is the reason he's confessing.

"And so maybe I'll be over
Just as soon as I fill them all in"
like i said he's guilty, so kind of flippantly he says "maybe" he'll stop killing just as soon as he tells the cops about what he did ("fill them all in")

the rest of the song is pretty straightforward, he misses her and he's crying.

the first few lines though, no idea...52 ways to murder anyone? one and two are the same? no idea.

I dont think the killer and the victim(s) ever had any relationship other than in the killer's mind, kind of like a stalker "I know when youre home". Finally having had enough the killer slips in and murders the victim still clinging to the fantasy that never took place. No serial killer that ive read about, and clearly the protagonist is that, has ever had any previous lengthy or normal relationship with his victims, even in fantasies the victims are objects.

I am planning to make a music video of this song... with two of my friends. One of them will be playing guitar in it (in the background) and the other will be singing / main character/

I am thinking about not trying to make the video too specific... meaning i wont include murder in the vid.

half of it will be them "playing/singing" and during the chorus it will be shots of the guy driving and singing...

What do you think?


BTW I think both Danzig and Graves kicked @ss... and Jerry Only needs vocal lessons...

Both Amy and Julie are his former girlfriends, and he killed them both. He liked Amy best, since "Julie didn't (doesn't) scream as well", so he's planning to turn himself in for murdering Amy (not Julie, since she didn't scream as well).
He really loved Amy, and forgot to tell her that, and he regrets that he killed her. Julie didn't really matter.

I kind of agree with ranger.

I think he killed Amy(not Julie), but he regrets it, because he loved her. But she wasnt the first, so when he tried to kill Julie, he wasnt satisfied because it wasnt the same as with Amy.

But yeah, Im gonna go with Graves. Danzig kicked ass, and the band Danzig is also awsome, but there is something about Graves that makes it that much more awsome.

Ok, this is what the song is really about. A sadistic, yet truly romantic guy has a habit of fucking, then killing his girlfriends. Then he meets "Amy" fucks her, then kills her, then as he moves on to his next girl, "Julie" he realises that he actually loved Amy. "Julie doesn't scream aswell": The way she screams (in both orgasm, and in being murdered) seem old now, it does not thrill him anymore, since he killed the girl he loved, so he decides to redeem himself. "I'll be over [to your grave], just as soon as i fill them all in [properly bury all the other girls he killed]". The rest is fairly overt, he misses her, they had "their song" etc.

He has murdered girls in every different way, now realising that it doesn't matter how he kills them because they all die in the end "There's 52 ways to murder anyone, 1 or 2 are the same and they both work as well".

Seems about right to me.

There's 52 ways to murder anyone
One and two are the same
And they both work as well
(He has killed some one and like a lot of sadist orkillers he is discussing the work behind his life's profession)

I'm coming clean for Amy
Julie doesn't scream as well
And the cops won't listen all (He's going to tell the police tht he killed Amy and Julie, but the confession is because of Amy, she was his favorite and I think he DIDNT mean to kill Amy it was a mistake. he tried to make up for what Amy was with another girl, Julie but she wasn't as good so she had to die)

And so maybe I'll be over
Just as soon as I fill them all in (When he confesses to everybody he's going to jail)

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night (He remembered the good times he had with Amy when he hears the song that they both used to enjoy)

As the moon becomes the night time
You go viciously, quietly away
I'm sitting in the bedroom, where we used to sit and smoke cigarettes
Now I'm watching, watching you die (oh oh oh)
(Sitting in the room where the had many good times and where she was killed gives him flash backs. He remembers he going "voiciously"- the struggle between them "quitly"-a she falls alseep in death away. He thinks about how he watched her die)

I can't remember when I saw her last
We were running around and having a blast
But the backseat (backseat) of the drive-in (drive-in)
Is so lonely without you
I know when you're home

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night( Just about how much he misses her and how he wanted to say "I love you" but never got the chance before she was gone.)

It's about a guy with a SHORT temper who's remebering one fateful saturday night when he killed two of his girlfriends after probably raping them, attemted to turn himself in, failed, and begun to think about what he'd done and remeber that night. He's remebering the whole thing, "I WAS crying on a Saturday night"

and the lyric is: "and I CAN remeber when I saw her last. WE WERE RUNNING ALL AROUND AND HAVING A BLAST, HAVING A BLAST."

In order:
"I'm coming clean for Amy,
Julie doesn't scream as well
and the cops won't listen all night"

"But the backseat of the drive-in is so lonely without you"-means that he would take his girlfriend to the back of a drive-in and try to rape her, but because he killed them, he's lonely (alone)

"so maybe, maybe, I'll be over, just as soon as I fill them all in."-he's thinking about suicide either after he fills in their graves or he's talking about telling someone what REALLY happened (filling us in).

I agree with Minkler about the first verse,

'There's 52 ways to murder anyone
One and two are the same
And they both work as well'

I think one way mudering/killing someone, fucking up with there emotions untill there's nothing left, and the second way pushing them to suicide. Then 'one and two are the same' because, its basically either her or him killing her for what he's done.

Thats just my thoughts on that verse though.

Well think about it,the first stanza is really the only part that doesn't exactly fit in with the rest of the song. I think everyone is taking the meaning quite literally.
"There's 52 ways to murder anyone" - I think he means emotionally,meaning hurting someone inside to the point to where he kills them inside or pushes them to suicide. Especially when it reads
"I'm coming clean for Amy" - I don't think he means like admitting to killing her. I think he is finally going to be honest with her about everything dishonest he has done. When he says "Julie doesn't scream as well" - I don't think he means torturing her or killing her. I might just have a dirty mind but I thought it might just mean sexually. Basically,that he fucked around with other people,such as Julie,and he realized he just had to be honest with Amy,since he realized that after everything,she was the one that he truly did love...which is why he had to be honest with her. No matter how much he killed her either emotionally or literally. The rest of the song just makes sense after that,that he is sitting around dwelling on what he did and depressed that he screwed up the chance he had with the one girl he actually loved. Which leaves him crying alone on a saturday night as he knows he left Amy to die with his "52 ways".
