Blue Monday Lyrics

Blue Monday, how I hate Blue Monday
Got to work like a slave all day
Here come Tuesday, oh hard Tuesday
I'm so tired, got no time to play

Here come Wednesday, I'm beat to my socks
My gal calls, got to tell her that I'm out
'Cause Thursday is a hard workin' day
And Friday I get my pay

Saturday mornin', oh Saturday mornin'
All my tiredness has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And I'm out on the stand to play

Sunday mornin', my head is bad
But it's worth it for the time that I've had
But I've got to get my rest
'Cause Monday is a mess

Saturday mornin', oh Saturday mornin'
All my tiredness has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And I'm out on the stand to play

Sunday mornin', my head is bad
But it's worth it for the time that I've had
But I've got to get my rest
'Cause Monday is a mess

About

This song bio is unreviewed

Fats Domino recounts his entire week and how he feels about each day. He starts out the song saying how bad the early work days of the week are.

By the time Friday comes, Fats gets his pay and is ready for the weekend ahead of him. However, through the weekend, he is continually prepping for the next Monday.

This song depicts the monotony of modern life. You wake up, go to work, go home, rinse and repeat. This cycle continues every week and starts with the dreaded Monday workday.
