Boomtown Rats - I Don't Like Mondays lyrics

The silicon chip inside her head

Gets switched to overload

And nobody's going to go to school today

She's going to make them stay at home

And daddy doesn't understand it

He always said she was good as gold

And he can see no reasons

Cos there are no reasons

What reason do you need to be shown?

Tell me why

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

I don't like Mondays

I want to shootthe 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 ain't so neat to admit to defeat

They can see no reasons

Cos there are no reasons

What reasons do you need?

Tell me why

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

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

‘Nd 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 jackals

With the problems and the how's and whys

And he can see no reasons

Cos there are no reasons

What reason do you need to die die ohh..

Tell me why

I don't like Mondays

Tell me don't like

I don't like (Tell me why)

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

I don't why

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

I don't like

I don't like (Tell me why)

I don't like Mondays

Tell me why

I like Mondays, I want to shootthe whole day down
