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 as good as gold
And he can
see no reason
Cause there
are no reasons
What reason do
you need to be
show-ow-ow-ow-own
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoo-oot
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 sixteen
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
show-ow-ow-ow-own
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoo-oot
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
And 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 as good as gold
And he can
see no reason
Cause there
are no reasons
What reason do
you need to be
show-ow-ow-ow-own
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
I don't like
I don't like Mondays
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoo-oot
The whole day down
Ooh ooh
ooh-ooh
