Jag blev ett måndagsbarn
Hela livet blev en helg
Mmm, nu är det måndag snart
Och jag lever för ikväll
Sena nätter, tomma glas,
Femhundra skjuter upp problemet för ett tag (för stunden)
Men jag tror att alla snart
har fått nog av mig

Vad har du gjort av dig, för dig, med dig själv
Situationen är så sjuk
Vad har du gjort, för dig är det alltid helg
Och helgen måste ta slut

Det är fullt en lördag klockan 5,
Jag längtar alltid härifrån men aldrig hem
Skulle vilja ta det sen, vad ska det bli av mig
Det finns dagar som idag, hopplösa mornar
Då jag vaknar som ett vrak
Åh jag märker alla har - har fått nog av mig

Vad har du gjort av dig, för dig, med dig själv
Situationen är så sjuk
Vad har du gjort, för dig är det alltid helg
Och helgen måste

Jag blev ett måndagsbarn
Hela livet blev en helg
De är måndag snart
Men jag lever för ikväll

Föddes en lördag, mamma kalla mig för discotjej
Så på en lördag, ja då vet du var du hittar mig
Föddes en lördag, alla kallar mig för discotjej
Men man frågar sig…

Vad har du gjort av dig, för dig, med dig själv
Situationen är så sjuk
Vad har du gjort, för dig är det alltid helg
Och helgen måste ta slut

Vad har du gjort av dig, för dig, med dig själv
Situationen är så sjuk
Vad har du gjort Ve-ronica med dig själv
Helgen måste ta slut…

Du är ett måndagsbarn
Du är ett måndagsbarn

    Monday's Child I was a Monday child My whole life was a weekend Mmmm, now it's almost Monday And I live for tonight Late nights, empty glasses, Five hundred will cover up the problem for a while (for now) But I believe that everyone will soon Have had enough of me

    What did you make of yourself, for yourself, with yourself The situation is so bad What have you done, it's always the weekend for you And the weekend must end

    It's 5 o'clock on a quiet Saturday I'm always elsewhere, never at home I'd have taken it already, what will become of me There are days like today, hopeless mornings When I wake up a wreck Oh see that everyone has - has had enough of me

    What did you make of yourself, for yourself, with yourself The situation is so bad What have you done, it's always the weekend for you And the weekend must

    I was a Monday child My whole life was a weekend It's Monday soon And I live for tonight

    I was born on a Saturday, mamma called me a disco girl So on a Saturday, yes then you know where to find me Born on a Saturday, everyone calls me a disco girl But you wonder ...

    What did you make of yourself, for yourself, with yourself The situation is so bad What have you done, it's always the weekend for you And the weekend must end

    What did you make of yourself, for yourself, with yourself The situation is so bad Ve-ronica, what have you done with yourself And the weekend must end ...

    You are a Monday child You are a Monday child

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
