Monday
Ringer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can it be that you can't see, my eyes are on freeze hot and cold is not for me can't you see? i want you to leave...
'cause this just can't be, i'm cutting you free free from my hot head, cold feet, and spleen this just isn't me, not this shade of green i'm taking a stand, now i understand that waiting is what's me not ten thousand degrees it's time i came clean i want you to leave
The lyrics of Ringer's song "Monday" convey a sense of frustration and desperation. The singer is pleading for someone to leave, stating that the situation they are in is not good for them. The use of "Monday" as the title reinforces the idea that this is a fresh start, a new beginning. The first verse establishes that the singer cannot handle the temperature in the situation they are in - "ten thousand degrees" - and that they are not cut out for what is happening.
The second verse builds on this idea. The singer wants the other person to see that what is happening is not good for them. They cannot handle the extremes, the "hot and cold," and they want the other person to leave. The singer decides to take a stand and rid themselves of the situation. They state that the waiting is not for them, and they need to take action to leave this "shade of green" and come clean. The lyrics of this song convey a sense of urgency and desire for change that is palpable.

Monday morning came to be
The start of the week has arrived
ten thousand degrees one in ten was not for me can't you see?
It's extremely hot and only a few can handle it
i'm begging you please, i want you to leave
I'm begging you to go away
Can it be that you can't see, my eyes are on freeze
I'm surprised that you can't see my eyes have gone cold
hot and cold is not for me can't you see?
I can't handle being treated hot and cold
i want you to leave...
I still want you to go away
'cause this just can't be, i'm cutting you free
This situation is unacceptable so I'm letting you go
free from my hot head, cold feet, and spleen
I need to be free from my mixed emotions
this just isn't me, not this shade of green
This version of myself isn't right for me
i'm taking a stand, now i understand that waiting is what's me
I'm standing up for myself and realizing that being patient is best for me
not ten thousand degrees it's time i came clean
I don't need to handle the extreme temperature, and it's time to be honest with you
i want you to leave
And again, I want you to leave

Bill has firm ideas about certain teams and he rationalizes it every week.
Johnny Beatmaker
Man ha my guy though
Jay Jones
I love this segment. Don’t agree with everything but agree with most and it gets me hyped for the games
Elliot Myers
So Simmons is going to say that the Colts suck every week? No matter how they play or who they beat? Ok
David Squires
Colts are 9-2 with just 3 plays. Bill hates Indy. Pretty funny watching them beat the Bills last week after Bill bet a ton on the Bills.

@Joe Schmo I don't know why I watch his videos and read his articles because his logic is terribly flawed, but for some reason it compels me.
Joe Schmo
@David Squires yeah bill is a clown. I like the ringer but I’m growing more and more tired of this guy. He has preconceived notions and tries to find evidence supporting only those thoughts. As far as the colts, he’s probably never liked wentz so he’ll continue to write him off no matter what.
David Squires
@Joe Schmo Umm, I was using Bill's logic. He said that about the Vikings, but neglects the same logic when talking about the Colts.
Joe Schmo
Yeah they aren’t 9-2. Lions are 5 plays from 5 wins. That’s not how it works
Anthony Duran
Vita Vea’s availability will be a huge deciding factor for that game
