Where Is My Head
Hey Monday Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Today I told myself that I would control myself
But my heart and zipper seems to disagree
Where is this coming from?
Progressively sinking deep
Bet my old private school ain't proud of me

You've got me spinning like a DJ
Don't care what they say
Every minute, every day
I'm waiting for the moment
Don't know who this girl is
But she wants to make a mess
Don't leave till you're finished
Now we're on to something golden
Where is my head?
Where is my head?
I want it
Where is my head?
Where is my head?

It seems I lost my mind back when we first met
Right at that second, everything had changed
I might be modest on the outside, looking in
But your mouth and body's got the best of me

You've got me spinning like a DJ
Don't care what they say
Every minute, every day
I'm waiting for the moment
Don't know who this girl is
But she wants to make a mess
Don't leave till you're finished
Now we're on to something golden
Where is my head?
Where is my head?
I want it
Where is my head?
Where is my head?

This is just crazy
It's so unlike me
Obsessing over you
Is making me thirsty

You've got me

You've got me spinning like a DJ
Don't care what they say
Every minute, every day
I'm waiting for the moment
Don't know who this girl is
But she wants to make a mess
Don't leave till you're finished
Now we're on to something golden
Where is my head?
Where is my head?
I want it




Where is my head?
Where is my head?
