Monday Morning
Bad Cash Quartet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It feels like I'm going down.
Every wasted day is
Going through my head
Monday morning
Know how it feels to be young
Do you know how it feels
I run at nights till I drop
I run at nights till I drop
Cause I am astray in my head
And that?s in everything I do
I am astray in my head
So I can?t hear a thing you,
hear a thing you say
Monday morning
Feels like I?m going down
Every wasted day is going
through my head
Early evenings
These are the times I love
But every now and then
it feels like I am dead
I run at nights till I drop
I run at nights till I drop
Cause I am astray in my head
And that?s in everything I do
I am astray in my head
So I can?t hear a thing you,
hear a thing you say
The lyrics to Bad Cash Quartet's song "Monday Morning" have a melancholy tone that conveys a sense of confusion and isolation. The song describes the feeling of hopelessness and anxiety that often accompanies the start of a new work week. The opening lines, "Monday morning. It feels like I'm going down." set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer of the song is overwhelmed by the weight of their own thoughts, "Every wasted day is going through my head." The phrase "wasted day" suggests that the singer feels a sense of regret for not having made the most of their time.
The second verse of the song focuses on the singer's sense of disconnection from others. The line "Do you know how it feels?" is a rhetorical question that suggests a feeling of separation from the people around the singer. The repetition of the phrase "I run at nights till I drop" suggests a desire to escape from the reality of the singer's life. The final lines of the song, "So I can't hear a thing you, hear a thing you say" seem to suggest a final disconnect from others, as if the singer has given up on trying to connect with anyone.
Overall, the song "Monday Morning" is a poignant and introspective reflection on feelings of isolation, anxiety, and disconnection. It touches on themes that are relevant to many people's experiences of work and daily life.
