Boomtown Rats I Don`t Like Mondays Lyrics

I Don`t Like Mondays Lyrics

The silicon chip inside her head

Gets switched to overload.

And nobody's
gonna go to school today,

She's going to make them stay at home.

And
daddy doesn't understand it,

He always said she was as good as
gold.

And he can see no reason

'Cause there are no reasons

What
reason do you need to be shown?



Tell me why?

I don't like
Mondays.

Tell me why?

I don't like Mondays.

Tell me why?

I
don't like Mondays.

I want to shoot

The whole day down.



The
telex machine is kept so clean

As it types to a waiting world.

And
mother feels so shocked,

Father's world is rocked,

And their thoughts
turn to

Their own little girl.

Sweet 16 ain't so peachy keen,

No,
it ain't so neat to admit defeat.

They can see no reasons

'Cause there
are no reasons

What reason do you need to be shown?



Tell me
why?

I don't like Mondays.

Tell me why?

I don't like
Mondays.

Tell me why?

I don't like Mondays.

I want to shoot

The
whole day down.



All the playing's stopped in the playground now

She
wants to play with her toys a while.

And school's out early and soon we'll
be learning

And the lesson today is how to die.

And then the bullhorn
crackles,

And the captain crackles,

With the problems and the how's and
why's.

And he can see no reasons

'Cause there are no reasons

What
reason do you need to die?



Tell me why?

I don't like
Mondays.

Tell me why?

I don't like Mondays.

Tell me why?

I
don't like Mondays.

I want to shoot

The whole day
down.
