Lyrics

[01:06.000] The silicon chip inside her head
[01:10.000] Got switched to overload
[01:13.000] Nobody's gonna go to school today,
[01:17.000] She's going to make them stay at home.
[01:20.000] And daddy doesn't understand her,
[01:24.000] He always said she was as good as gold.
[01:26.000] And he can see no reasons
[01:29.000] 'Cause there are no reasons
[01:31.000] What reason do you need to be shown?
[01:36.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[01:40.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[01:44.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[01:47.000] I want to shoot
[01:53.000] The whole day down.
[02:01.000] The telex machine is kept so clean
[02:05.000] And it types to a waiting world,
[02:08.000] Her mother feels so shocked
[02:10.000] Father's world is rocked
[02:12.000] And their thoughts turn to
[02:13.000] Their own little girl
[02:15.000] Well sweet 16 ain't she peachy keen,
[02:20.000] And it ain't so neat to admit defeat,
[02:22.000] There could be (no reasons)
[02:24.000] Because there are (no reasons)
[02:26.000] What reasons do you need, oh,
[02:31.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[02:35.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[02:38.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[02:42.000] I'm gonna shoot the whole day down, down, down
[02:53.000] I'll shoot it all down
[03:17.000] And all the playing's stopped in the playground now
[03:21.000] She wants to play with her toys a while
[03:25.000] And school is out, oh and soon we will learn that
[03:28.000] The lesson today is how to die
[03:40.000] And then the bullhorn crackles,
[03:43.000] And the captain tackles
[03:45.000] With the problems and the how's and why's
[03:49.000] And he can see (no reasons)
[03:51.000] 'cause there are (no reasons)
[03:53.000] What reasons do you need to die, die, oh
[04:00.000] And the silicon chip inside her head
[04:03.000] Gets switched to overload, oh
[04:07.000] And nobody's gonna go to school today
[04:11.000] She's gonna make them stay at home
[04:15.000] And daddy doesn't understand it
[04:18.000] He always said she was good as gold
[04:22.000] And he could see (no reasons)
[04:24.000] 'cause there are (no reasons)
[04:26.000] What reason do you need to be shown
[04:31.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[04:36.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[04:40.000] (tell me why) I don't like, I don't like
[04:44.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[04:47.000] (tell me why) I don't like, I don't like
[04:51.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[04:54.000] (tell me why) I don't like mondays
[04:58.000] I want to shoot the whole day down
