Lyrics

Monday

[Intro]

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey! How are ya?! How are ya?! How are ya?!

Hey!

[Verse 1]

When Monday comes, again... Ugh...

Another week can begin

[Verse 2]

Ugh, wanting!

I'd ask myself:

"It seems just like I cannot be alone..."

Wanting!

I'm back where I belong

And I've found a way, now I'm going home!

[Verse 3]

Monday...

Another sick reminder of another dead week gone by!

Oough...

But if it's Monday!

If only for a moment, and if that moment's coming

So, am, I!

[Verse 4]

But I dont know 'bout that

Smoke is in the air

I. Can't. Stand. This!

I got 19 fucking hours and then I gotta get to the end

Get. Me. Out!

But when the insects burrow, in perfect harmony

And things you are are things I should not be

Ooh! And to take me down will take a better fight than Hell!

You took my time, so now I take you...

[Bridge]

Throw the call out, the window

I don't need work anymore

I get to be unruly

We got to carry onward

Finally kick my shoes off

And talk to humans again

You don't control me, fucker!

Together happy again

[Outro]

Monday! (Get me out of L.A.!)

Monday! (Get me out of L.A.!)

Monday! (Get me out of L.A.!)

Monday! (Get me out of L.A.!)

I. Can't. Stand. It!

...Jesus
