Blue Monday
Dr. Lektroluv Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blue Monday, how I hate blue Monday
Got me workin' like a dog all day
Here comes Tuesday, oh hard Tuesday
I'm so tired, I've got no time to play
Look out Wednesday I'm beat to my bone
My girl calls, I gotta tell her I'm not home
She knows Thursday is a hard workin day
Til Friday I get paid
Oh Saturday morning, Saturday morning
All my tired has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And we're out on the town to play
Sunday morning my head is bad
But it's worth it, all the times I had
But I've still got to get my rest
For Monday is a mess Saturday morning,
Oh Satirday morning
All my tired has gone away
Me and my honey, we got some money
And were out on the town play
Sunday morning my head is bad
But it's worth all the times I had




But I've got to go and get some rest
For Monday is a mess!

I would just freak out. Too bad there are ZERO massives or good electo shows around here. I had to go to Chicago last year to see The Chemical Brothers, it was badass though.
