Monday
Mikey & The Gypsys Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You will see the light
Before you know, I gotta go
But I'll give you tomorrow woah-oh-oh

Monday, you know it's going to be
Tuesday, you know it's going to be
Wednesday, but I'll be gone Ba ba-baom ba ba ba-baom (Hey, hey, hey!)

You want to see the things you want
But you will fall behind
You won't(will?) make it tomorrow woah-oh-oh
(Hey, hey, hey!)

You and I were going together
You're so hard to get
But I'd give it to you girl woah-oh-ohhhh
(Hey, hey, hey!)

2/Bridge 2??

Monday, you know it's going to be
Tuesday, you know it's going to be
Wednesday, but I'll be gone

(Repeat)

Doesn't matter for me.
You and I know, doesn't happen to me
No matter what you say
Take it away, gotta make it a day

Ba ba-baom ba ba ba-baom.

Monday, you know it's going to be
Tuesday, you know it's going to be
Wednesday, but I'll be gone

(Repeat 2 more times)

Monday, Tuesday, Friday, everyday
I know that you don't know anything
I don't know about you
But I'll be gone

(Repeat)
