the silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody’s gonna go to school today
She’s gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn’t understand it
He always said she was good as gold

And he can see no reason
'cause there are no reason
What reason do you need to be shown

Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
I don’t like
I don’t like
I don’t like mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
Down, down, shoot it all down

All the playing’s stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And school’s out early and soon we’ll be learning
That the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the hows and whys
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reason
What reason do you need to die

Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
I don’t like
I don’t like
I don’t like mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like mondays
I don’t like
I don’t like
I don’t like mondays
I don’t like mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
Whole day
Whole day
Whole day
Down
