I Don’t Like Mondays Lyrics

by Tori Amos

Bob Geldof)
The Boomtown Rats - from “The Fine Art Of Surfacing” (1979)

The silicon chip inside her head
gets switched to overload
and nobodyÂ’s gonna go to school today
sheÂ’s gonna make them stay at home
And Daddy doesnÂ’t understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown

Chorus:
Tell me why
I donÂ’t like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down

The telex machine is kept so clean
and it types to waiting world.
And Mother feels so shocked
FatherÂ’s world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl
Sweet 16 ainÂ’t that peachy keen
No it ainÂ’t so neat to admit defeat,
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown

Repeat Chorus

All the playingÂ’s stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And schoolÂ’s out early and soon weÂ’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 howÂ’s and whyÂ’s
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to die

Repeat Chorus
