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
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you
need to be shown
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean
And 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 that peachy keen
No it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down
Shoot'em all down
And 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
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
with the problems
And the how's and why's
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to die
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down
The silicon chip inside her head
