Miodes - Monday Morning

Monday woke at seven
I heard the birds singing
Outside on
Our clean new street
I lie awake
Brother sleeps a-heap
Sister in the mirror
Putting on mascara
Water poured from kettle
And tea poured from pot
And there's always a cold mug
That someone forgot
Oh Monday morning
The distant church bell chimes...

And oh could the world go on without us
And leave us all behind
We were young but oh
There was trouble on our mind

Sun rose at seven-thirty
I heard the neighbours' cars
Spluttering along
Our clean new street
I lie awake
Brother still sleeps a heap
One lid opens then shuts
Wishing the day gone
Ready for work
And ready for school
The outcast
The reject
The freak
And the fool
Monday morning
The distant church bell chimes...

Left the house at eight
Saw the school girls
Sauntering along
Our clean new street
Brother hurries after
Complaining to me that's he's ill
And sister's off to college
And going on the pill
