Monday, Monday

 

Monday Monday,

Robert bought a new car today.

Monday, Monday,

Becky went to lunch with a friend today.

Monday, Monday,

this one, this year, the first day of Spring today.

Monday, Monday,

cloudy skies went away.

Monday, Monday,

a meatloaf baked in the oven today,

Jesse ran a red light on the way to work.

A dog barked twice,

a mouse sprung the trap and lost its life.

Monday, Monday,

the plan is, calendar-wise,

this one, and every one before follows Sunday.

Life is great or not so nice.

Monday, Monday,

a chance roll of the dice.

Monday after Monday,

all the changes made came undone

except the one.

Monday, Monday,

whether heard or unheard,

what you have to say has already been said before.

Monday, Monday, this one and those which follow,

Monday will never be quite the same.

Monday, Monday, for some Tuesday will likely follow.
