Make It 'Til Monday Lyrics

Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
Another Friday night waiting for a revelation
I can see a million faces in the condecation

In a moment you'd changed
Things weren't the same
You were talking at me not with me
And your tongue was burning up in flames
Are you coming back? Are you coming back?
When Monday comes you'll be alone with
The whole world staring at you

Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
Hey my friend friend you better leave now I'm gonna go my own way
You said I suffer from inner frustration

In a moment you changed
Things weren't the same
You were talking at me not with me
And your tounge was burning up in flames
And when you turn him off
Where does he go?
Where've the years gone?
I don't no
Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?

I'm pretty sure it's about LSD. I remember talking with friends on it and they'd slip into a temporary psychosis. Suddenly they made no sense at all and had lost all sense of where they were or what was going on. It was scary to see especially if you were trying to keep it together yourself. Once my girlfriend who I was living with had a bad one and she said she didn't know her name or who I was but she felt safe with me. I held on to her for six hours til she came out of it. So I think it's that. Seeing a mate suddenly go under and thinking they should leave and call it a night and hope they're better by Monday.

I interpret this as a song about coming down from a drug hallucination, fearing that death is just around the corner, and hanging in there because there will always be a Monday.

Similarly, I see it as a big weekend on hallucinogenics, maybe acid and/or pills, and it goes a bit wrong, the vibe the guys are chasing changes and they aren't on the same wavelength. They will make it til Monday but it's going to be hard getting there, and when Monday comes, it won't be fun.

and when Monday comes, it won't be fun.

Is it ever?

obviously about a Friday night on drugs, likely E. Ashcroft is scared cause he's tripping hard, hence why he's asking "Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?"
