The Monday Side
It's gonna be a Monday or a Tuesday
And I don't wanna wake up at 8am
I don't have to work til 3
Don't think these streets get so clean
Another mattress on the sidewalk
It's a little game of tag
That I play every week with the street sweeping man
There's no room for my baby
So I guess he's staying away tonight
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about tomorrow
I've been driving round these streets for half an hour
The situation's bleak and I can't see the signs
Nobody's leaving at
This time of night
My two bedroom has one parking spot
That I can't use
Wish I lived in Hancock Park
Mile-long driveway
Valet for all my friends
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about tomorrow
It's the little ways we put up with oppression
The little taxes on the working class
Can't afford that $80 ticket
But Sunday night just comes around so fast
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about
The Monday side I'll safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now
But I can't say the same about tomorrow
No I can't say the same about tomorrow
No I can't say the same about tomorrow
And I don't wanna wake up at 8am
I don't have to work til 3
Don't think these streets get so clean
Another mattress on the sidewalk
It's a little game of tag
That I play every week with the street sweeping man
There's no room for my baby
So I guess he's staying away tonight
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about tomorrow
I've been driving round these streets for half an hour
The situation's bleak and I can't see the signs
Nobody's leaving at
This time of night
My two bedroom has one parking spot
That I can't use
Wish I lived in Hancock Park
Mile-long driveway
Valet for all my friends
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about tomorrow
It's the little ways we put up with oppression
The little taxes on the working class
Can't afford that $80 ticket
But Sunday night just comes around so fast
On the Monday side I'll be safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now but I can't say the same about
The Monday side I'll safe
But it's only a temporary escape
From my oppression
I'm safe now
But I can't say the same about tomorrow
No I can't say the same about tomorrow
No I can't say the same about tomorrow
