Lyrics

Monday morning, can’t stop yawning
But mother’s got the kettle on

Slide into my same brown shoes
I race down the apples for a cup of tea
Dirty old biscuits and it’s off to catch the twenty three

Standing waiting in the queue
Some called my name, said I know you
I thought you’d be long gone

Manchester Monday Morning
Should’ve stayed home in bed
Pulled the cover over my head
Manchester Monday Morning
Oh no, another rainy day

Driving by to places I new well
When I was Saint Bedes bound
And everybody’s fair haired boy

He protests that
The insinuation or the mere suggestion
That he could ever turn into this man
That I feel I’ve become

Saw you standing in the queue
But as I called your name
The dong swung through
AndI knew you were long gone

Manchester Monday Morning
Should’ve stayed home in bed
Pulled the cover over my head
Manchester Monday Morning
Oh no, another rainy day

Monday morning
Monday morning
Bobby Charlton, Dennis law, tapping
Team along the old toll road, stopping
For a pint at Matt Busby’s, hearing
All the children sing
United, they’re united

Manchester Monday Morning
Should’ve stayed home in bed
Pulled the cover over my head
Manchester Monday Morning
Oh no, another rainy day

Manchester Monday Morning
Should’ve stayed home in bed
Pulled the cover over my head
Manchester Monday Morning
Oh no, another rainy day
