'saturday night?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both states of affairs as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'bit of fun always on' is the wordplay.
'bit of' indicates taking the first letters.
'always' becomes 'ever' (synonyms).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
The initial letter of 'fun' is 'f'.
'f'+'ever'='FEVER'
