People are pushing by

Under the toxic sky

Another busy day

The summer city haze



I don't wanna be Monday's child

I wanna leave this behind

Wanna be free and running wild

Don't wanna be Monday's child

Don't wanna be Monday's child



Brother is doing fine

Follows the dotted line

Everyone looks the same

On the electric train



But I don't wanna be Monday's child

I wanna leave this behind

Wanna be free and running wild

Don't wanna be Monday's child

Don't wanna be Monday's child

Monday's child



Another Monday's child

And a mother of Monday's child



I don't wanna be Monday's child

I wanna leave this behind

Wanna be free and running wild

Don't wanna be Monday's child

Don't wanna be Monday's child

Monday's child…
