Manic Monday

About Manic Monday

"Manic Monday" is a song by the American pop rock band The Bangles, and the first single released from their second studio album, Different Light (1986). It was written by American musician Prince using the pseudonym "Christopher" and was originally intended for the group Apollonia 6 in 1984. Lyrically, it describes a woman who is waking up to go to work on Monday, wishing it was still Sunday so she could continue relaxing. The single, released by Columbia Records on Monday January 27, 1986, received generally positive reviews from music critics and some comparisons with The Mamas & the Papas' "Monday, Monday". It became The Bangles' first hit, reaching number two in the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as in Austria, Canada, Germany and Ireland, and peaked within the top five in Australia, New Zealand, Norway and Switzerland. It was later certified silver in the UK by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). The song has been covered by a number of other artists. more »

Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday (oh)
I wish it was Sunday (oh)
'Cause that's my fun day (oh)
My "I don't have to run" day
It's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an airplane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out
What I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

It's just another manic Monday (oh)
I wish it was Sunday (oh)
'Cause that's my fun day (oh)
My "I don't have to run" day
It's just another manic Monday

All of my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night we got down)
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down (oh)
When she tells me in her bedroom voice
"C'mon honey, let's go make some noise" (I can't resist)
Time it goes so fast
(When you're having fun)

It's just another manic Monday (oh)
I wish it was Sunday (oh)
'Cause that's my fun day (oh)
It's just another manic Monday
