Metric - Dark Saturday Lyrics






Somewhere in the south of France
Or the Caribbean sea
She said, "I don't need to make a living"
"Fake diamonds got nothing on me"

I met her in the world below
She's a tourist of the world beneath
I said, "Everything I've built from nothing"
She said, "I'm so rich, everything's free"

So dark it ain't so dark
So dark it ain't so dark

Forever and never
A torch in search of a flame
To be good, get better
Well I've been feeling this way
Forever and never
A night in search of a day
As anxious as ever
It's such a dark, dark, dark Saturday

What's your name and where you from?
Well I'm worth your weight in gold
While we lie here in the sun
The whole wide world's about to explode

Now our bodies intertwine
And the truth is plain to see
I said, "Everything I've built from nothing"
She said, "Don't you blame your problems on me"

So dark it ain't so dark
So dark it ain't so dark
So dark it ain't so dark

Forever and never
A torch in search of a flame
To be good, get better
I change by staying the same
Forever and never
A night in search of a day
As anxious as ever
It gets so dark, dark, dark

Shine a light my way
Shine a light my way
Having such a dark, dark, dark, dark Saturday
Shine a light my way

In search of
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark, dark, dark Saturday
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark, dark, dark Saturday
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark
Dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark Saturday

  8. e.... ....

    jesus worships trump

  9. e.... ....

    bored to flicking light switches for fun is really seeking light

  10. B.... ....

    If there's ever a Metric cover band, it should be named Imperial

  11. P.... i....

    Bx we here🗣💥

  12. C.... ....

  21. R.... D....

    My favs forever and ever.

  22. F.... S....

    Great video!!

  23. T.... S....

    The way you do black and white video's is amazing!

  24. N.... R....

    This is an amazing song, but horrible video. Seriously, it looks like you barely put it together. Bummer. Don't settle for less. The July 12, 2019 opening for the Pumpkins was embarrassing to my guests, as I have about Metric and promote to my circle. EMILY looked like she was in shock, had stage fright, or was on something. Regardless, still a huge fan. Per the book The 4 Agreements, always do your best.

  25. A.... ....

    I dunno how the fuck I missed this for so long, I think I was too busy jamming out to the new Chvrches album but thank fuck my favorite band has more new music! <3

    Metric is sounding really terrific lately. Great on them.

  34. T.... A....

    Metric and July Talk together, can't wait, see you at the Filmore!

  35. H.... H....

    I spy Grande Lips, Charlotte Tillbury & a Real Techniques Brush. @ 0:11

  36. N.... C....

    I don't know how but this song make me kinda sad

  37. J.... ....

    DID SHE HUST T POSE

  38. e.... ....

    I love her voice

  39. c.... ....

    the chorus reminds me so much of another song.

  40. K.... G....

    The best 🖤

  41. G.... C....

    Canada is on the Metric system.

  42. C.... ....

    The greatest song for long Saturday nights!!!

  43. G.... ....

    All hail Emily Haines! Glad that the new album turned out so good! There were 4 tracks I really loved. This one probably my favorite. Other highlights:

    Now Or Never Now
    Art Of Doubt
    Underline The Black

    The album art was terrible though... don't know if that's what they were going for on purpose?

  44. m.... m....

    very 90s video . love it

  45. M.... F....

    I love METRIC...
    ...and im a metal-head!

  46. A.... S....

    The part at 0:58 reminds me of an older 2000’s song and I can’t think of it. Anybody know what I’m talking about?

    A.... S....

    Andrew Siekierda yes and i can’t think of it either. it’s driving me crazy.

    A.... S....

    After looking through playlists of 2000’s hits I finally found it lol. Not sure if it’s the same as what it reminds you of but for me it’s Spiderwebs by No Doubt

    A.... S....

    Although now that I listen to this song again I feel like that’s not actually it 😂 now it’s bothering me again

  47. L.... L....

    Really cool video!

  48. B.... H....

    She sounds so much like Karen O at times.

  49. E.... M....

    Fake diamonds got nothing on me

  50. D.... ....

    The new album is effin fantastic. Even though this is kind of the launch song there are about 6 others I love even more.
    Dark Saturday 8/10
    Love you Back 9/10
    Die Happy 7/10
    Now or Never Now
    Art of Doubt 10/10
    Underline the Black 9/10
    Dressed to Suppress 10/10


    Reviews on the others song later because right now I am just looping tracks 1-7. Top to bottom Fantasies is my favorite album but this work has impressed me early and will impress me often. I am sensing a gaming montage to "Dressed to Suppress".

  51. A.... U....

    Now THAT'S how you make a music video!
    No credits, no talking, no intro, no nonsense!

  52. Y.... ....

    ahhhhhh yeahhhhh

  53. S.... ....

    Sha, la, la, la ❤

  54. B.... M....

    Must have been a temporary YouTube glitch. Sorry Metric!

  55. B.... M....

    Just threw support your way by buying your album. Now required to pay to watch your video. Get bent!

  56. S.... S....

    This would sound awesome live!

  57. J.... ....

    Check out our cover of Dark Saturday - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHjWnRVAeak

  58. P.... ....

    I love this song. It's awesome. It's so awesome that it's got me listening to Metric's albums! 😀👍

  59. M.... ....

    Had to watch it four times. I’m not complaining. ;)

  60. D.... T....

    monster hospital welcome back guys i allways love you and i always will.

  61. A.... H....

    please dont be so high looking omg it scares me

  62. R.... D....

    I feel this album is like a best of with new songs. The more i listen to it the more i like it

  63. S.... C....

    DUCK DUCK DUCK
    DUCK DUCK DUCK
    DUCK DUCK DUCK

  64. r.... b....

    Toujours aussi magique!

  65. M.... B....

    I'm writing songs for Laura Hope from Toronto Canada now and we are sooo going to write our new songs with Emily et al in mind. I loved Pagans and I'm loving this new drop. Thanks Metric!

  66. B.... E....

    This album is fantastic. One of my favorites, right up there with 'Fantasies'.

    What's he getting away from?
    While I'm worth your weight in gold

    I believe the 4th line is, "Fake diamonds got nothing on me." Also further on, "What's he getting away from?" is "What's your name? Where you from?".

  68. M.... P....

    Emily Haines = Goddess! this is great, edgy sound .....like Metric should be!!

  69. r.... w....

    Love it .

  70. S.... S....

    Anyone else think she sounds like the singer from the yeah yeah yeahs? Kinda different but still sounds the same. I dig this song so much. Bingeing!

  71. S.... ....

    reminds me Yeah Yeah Yeahs

  72. L.... H....

    Can someone tell me, in this video are they filming in Cuba? Or somewhere else...i'm super curious coz my first thought was that they were there...not only for this video but also for the 'Now or Never Now'?

  73. R.... A....

  90. M.... F....

    Love the tune, but can't shake the Missing Personish sounds/feel of it. Which is probably why I like it. And Emily is much more luscious than Dale Bozzio ever was.
