Lyrics for St. Monday

Monday and the afternoon is bearing down on me I'm watching the clock and the clock is watching me Don't have to be cool but you know I am Don't have to be here but you know that I'm a hard worker but I ain't working on a Monday I'm a hard worker but I ain't working on a Monday A hard working fellow but I ain't working on a Monday St. Monday's still the weekend to me Two dozen enquiries are on hold for me My shift supervisor is staring hard at me Nobody can say what the matter is I'm trying to recharge my batteries I'm a hard worker but I ain't working on a Monday I'm a hard worker but I ain't working on a Monday A hard working fellow but I ain't working on a Monday St. Monday's still the weekend to me Somewhere out on the road, I just wanna be free I don't wanna do as I'm told Don't wanna work 4, 5, 6 days and turnaround Want to get high on life but first I got to get me back home Nobody can say what the matter is I'm trying to recharge my batteries
