Testo della canzone I Don´t Like Mondays di Tori Amos
Album: Strange Little Girls
Bob Geldof)
The Boomtown Rats – from The Fine Art Of Surfacing (1979)
The silicon chip inside her head
gets switched to overload
and nobody´s gonna go to school today
she´s gonna make them stay at home
And Daddy doesn´t understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown
Chorus:
Tell me why
I don´t like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean
and it types to waiting world.
And Mother feels so shocked
Father´s world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain´t that peachy keen
No it ain´t so neat to admit defeat,
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown
Repeat Chorus
All the playing´s stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And school´s out early and soon we´ll be learning
That the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the how´s and why´s
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to die
Repeat Chorus
