[intro clock ticking and alarm clock ringing] Verse 1 The alarm clock’s howling in my ear Sun’s still hiding, sky’s unclear Another week, another climb Chasing dreams and losing time I drag my feet across the floor Don’t even know what I’m fighting for My coffee’s cold, my eyes still blur But I’m alive — of that I’m sure Pre-Chorus Sunday felt like a sweet escape But Monday’s here, no time to wait Chorus Oooh – Monday, you’re a mountain to climb You steal my sleep and test my mind But I’ll keep moving, step by step With a little hope and no regret Yeah Monday, you can slow me down But I won’t let you steal my crown Verse 2 Traffic lights and endless lines Dreamers stuck in nine-to-fives We laugh and sigh, we play our part But there’s a rhythm in my heart I see the faces half awake Holding on till coffee breaks But in this crowd I find my spark A little fire in the dark Pre-Chorus The ticking clock keeps pushing me But I’ll find my melody Chorus Oooh – Monday, you’re a mountain to climb You twist my soul but I’ll be fine I’ll chase the sun beyond the haze And turn your gray into golden rays Yeah Monday, you can weigh me down But I’ll still dance through this town Bridge (big emotional lift) Every sunrise starts the same But every day can change the game Maybe Monday’s just a chance To start again — to take that dance Final Chorus (key change, full power) Oooh – Monday, you’re a mountain to climb But I’ll reach your peak in time With open eyes and beating heart I’ll play my role, I’ll do my part Yeah Monday – you won’t break my tune By Friday night I’ll touch the moon! Outro “One deep breath, a brand new start… Monday can’t break my heart.”
