jessica law - monday morning lyrics

Loading...

monday is dawning, so sunny and sweet
my whole life before me, the world at my feet
a thousand amus+m+nts made out on display
a thousand adventures to fill up my day
if there wasn’t just one small thing in my way

i could fly to the moon on a haunted balloon
and become a mooncalf cavalier
i could sail through the night to that haunting green light
and climb up upon the pier
i could walk on the moor with my tormented thoughts
and my tailcoats afloat in the wind
i could sit in my chair in the smoke scented
playing plaintive violin

all the adventures i could have if i weren’t here
and oh the intentions i’ve assеmbled year on year
if i didn’t havе to go to work

i could sit there and think with a bottle of ink
and a goose feather quill in my fist
i could grumble and gripe at the typewriter type
of the worlds that don’t exist

i could lie on the couch with a pipe in my mouth
and a mind full of vision and veils
i could haunt the saloon seeking tormented tunes
on the trail of half+heard tales

all the ideas i could give the gift of life
they fall on deaf ears, for i haven’t got the time
because instead i have to go to work

i could do nothing+ sweet celestial nothing
i could sit in the bath, read a novel and laugh at you all
just watching you run at society’s beck and call
bless your souls
in our world of action, where we’re worth the things we make
the biggest infraction is to sit and cogitate
if i didn’t have to go
(oh, but i still have to, though)
but i wish i didn’t go to work
