Tori Amos Lyrics
"I Don't Like Mondays"

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna go to school today;
She gonna make them stay at home.
Daddy doesn't understand it;
He always said she was good as gold.
And he can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown?

Tell me why
I dont like mondays.
Tell me why
I dont like mondays.
I dont like, I don't like, I don't like mondays.
Tell me why I don't like mondays.
I want to shoot the whole day down.

Down, down, shoot it all down.

And all the playing's stopped in the playground now;
She wants to play with her toys a while.
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And 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
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die?

Tell me why
I dont like mondays.
Tell me why
I dont like mondays.
I dont like, I don't like, I don't like mondays.
Tell me why I don't like mondays.
I want to shoot the whole day down.
