Claude François - Monday Morning Again (Le Lundi Au Soleil) lyrics

(Patrick Juvet/Jean-Michel Rivat/Franck Thomas)

Looking at my watch it's almost eight 0' clock

and it's such a sunny day

time to hear the news and check up on the world

then we must be on our way

though it was a great weekend, the weatherman was not our friend

but as we go back to work, then the weather clears and the sun appears.

Monday morning again, and the sun is shining in the sky

though I hate to complain,

when we are free to enjoy the day, why does the sun always stay away ?

and there's no sign of the rain, now Monday's here again.

Monday morning again, when we have to face the cities roar

Monday morning again, when we could walk on a sunny shore

why does the rain pour and pour and pour ?

but then the sun will appear when Monday's here again.

Walking in the woods or swimming in the sea, trying to acquire a tan

lying in the hay or climbing up a tree, part of every weekend plan

when we're far away from crowds, all we ever see are clouds

but as we go back to work then the weather clears and the sun appears.

Monday morning again, and the sun is shining in the sky

though I hate to complain,

when we are free to enjoy the day, why does the sun always stay away ?

and there's no sign of the rain, now Monday's here again.

Monday morning again, when we have to face the cities roar

Monday morning again, when we could walk on a sunny shore

why does the rain pour and pour and pour ?

but then the sun will appear when Monday's here again.

Monday morning again, and the sun is shining in the sky

though I hate to complain,

when we are free to enjoy the day, why does the sun always stay away ?

and there's no sign of the rain, now Monday's here again.

Monday morning again, when we have to face the cities roar

Monday morning again, when we could walk on a sunny shore

why does the rain pour and pour and pour ?

but then the sun will appear when Monday's here again.
