Monday Shutdown

(album: Little Robbers - 1983)

Shadows of Sunday
Can't stand that one day
When living screeches to a stop
Here I go again
Man it never ends
Day after day things stay the same
They shut the door on me again
Don't know who they are
They don't know me
I walk down the halls of this
Great company

Do I really go downtown
Just to face Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown

I might be here for the rest of my life
Don't know how long it's been
I smile for no reason
Away from the daily prison
They shut the door on me again

Do I really go downtown
Just to face Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown

Day by day
No it never stops
Have to stay alive
Just to face
Five days that break my heart

Objects in the mirror
Not as close as they appear
Endless week becomes a year
Monday starts it off
Monday never stops
I can't stand another year
Living here in constant fear
I'm gonna go insane
I'm gonna break away
Say goodbye too life of pain
I'll find a brand new game

Do I really go downtown
Just to face Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown
Monday shutdown
