The Bangles – Manic Monday

Gergő — Sat, 17 Oct 2015 21:07:10 +0000

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
I wish it were Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
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 aeroplane
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
Wish it were Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
My I don’t have to run day
It’s just another manic Monday

All of the nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn’t it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment’s down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
“C’mon honey, let’s go make some noise”
Time it goes so fast
(When you’re having fun)

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it were Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
I don’t have to run day

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
It’s just a manic Monday

Passenger – The Wrong Direction

When I was a kid the things I did were hidden under the grid
Young and naive I never believed that love could be so well hid
With regret I’m willing to bet and say the older you get
It gets harder to forgive and harder to forget
It gets under your shirt like a ………………….. at work
The first cut is the deepest but the rest still flipping hurt
You build your heart of plastic
Get ………… and sarcastic
And end up in the corner on your own

Cause I’d love to feel love but I can’t stand the ……………..
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction oh no

So what’s the point in getting your hopes up
When all you’re ever getting is ………………………..
When you’re ………………………..
And can’t remember the reason why you broke up
You call her in the morning
When you’re coming down and falling like an old man on the side of the road
Cause when you’re apart you don’t want to ………………
When you’re together you want to be single
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of …………………….
That made your heart tingle
How much greener the grass is
With those rose tinted glasses
But the butterflies they flutter by and leave us on our ……………………..

Cause I’d love to feel love but I can’t stand the rejection
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction
There’s fish in the sea for me to make a selection
I’d jump in if it wasn’t for my ear infection
Cause all I want to do is try to make a connection
It seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction oh

Oh I’d love to feel love but I can’t stand the rejection
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction
I’d love to feel love but I can’t stand the rejection
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction ohh
It seems like I’m running in the wrong direction ohh
Seems like I’m running in the wrong direction ohh
Well it seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction oh no
Seems I’ve been running in the wrong direction
