Except For Monday

(album: Something In Red - 1991)

You look surprised, you didn't think you'd see me,
Kicking up my heels, painting up this town,
When you said goodbye,
I learned a couple new dances,
Cast a couple of glances, I'm on a big roll now.

[Chorus:]
Except for Monday, which was never good anyway,
Tuesday, I get a little sideways,
Wednesday, I feel better, just for spite,
Thursday and Friday take too long,
Before I know it, Saturday's gone,
But it's Sunday now
And you can bet that I'm alright.

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't always this easy,
Getting over you, got a little rough on me,
It didn't take too long, 'til I got it together
And everyday I thank my lucky stars,
You set me free.

Except for Monday, which was never good anyway,
Tuesday, I get a little sideways,
Wednesday, I feel better, just for spite,
Thursday and Friday take too long,
Before I know it, Saturday's gone,
But it's Sunday now
And you can bet that I'm alright.

[Repeat Chorus]

It's Sunday now and everything's alright.
