Monday, back from the dead I'm letting it go, back for another one Tuesday, shoot me in the head I'm takin' it back , takin' it back I'll take it back Wednesday, she's lookin' for a friend She'll get what she wants Can't seem to get enough Thursday, it's more than I can stand I'm holdin' her down, holdin' her down She's down again I gotta find a way to find her Where could she be? Four days of the week She thinks I'm the enemy One day, left me for dead Woke up on the floor, time for another one Two days, she's leavin' me again Can't take it no more Out through the open door Three days, she's found herself a friend She got what she wants Still never get enough Four days she's back with me again She's pullin' me down, pullin' me down I'm down again Monday's gone Tuesday's fadin' Wednesday's gone Thursday's all but wasted now
