Alright, time to silence all you haters.

For those of you making fun of the lyrics, here's a fun fact for you: "Friday" was originally written in 1963 as a protest song by none other than Bob Dylan. It was deemed too controversial to be released as a single at the time as it dealt with such topics as bus segregation ("which seat should I take?"), Cold War paranoia ("everybody's Russian") and drug use ("gotta get my bowl"), and as a result it was relegated to obscurity for the next 40+ years. So thank you, Rebecca Black, for unearthing and breathing new life into this lost masterpiece and bestowing upon it the popularity it always deserved.
