Monday Count all the teeth in my head Tuesday Anointed by a man in a dress It's more than just a question of time It's more a question of Reason and rhyme Wednesday Got hitched just like a good boy should Thursday And Friday didn't feel so good On Saturday I said my goodbyes On Sunday I'm food For the worms and the flies Pack up your troubles now take All you can carry On your way Your way Just remember this time you know you've only got seven days It's more than just a question of time It's more a question of Reason and rhyme Pack up your troubles now take All you can carry On your way Your way Just remember this time you know you've only got seven days
