The Boomtown Rats I Don't Like Mondays (Album Version) Lyrics

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

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
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 a 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,
'Cause there are no reasons.
What reasons do you need? Oh, Oh Oh, Woah!

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
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 on 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 cackles,
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? Die? Oh Oh Oh!

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

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like...
I don't like...
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like...
I don't like...
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.
