Manic Monday

Remember that song from the 80's, Manic Monday, by The Bangles. I sometimes sing that song to Ryan on Monday mornings to get him going, since he hates Mondays. Over the last few weeks we have worked on revising the words so that they fit his life. Here's what we have come up with:

Seven o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was slammin Randy Orton
in a big Wrestlemania ring


But I can't be late
cause then I guess I won't pass first grade
these are the days
when you wish your bed was already made


It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
cause that's my fun day
my I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday

Have to ride my bike today,
got to get to school by eight
and if I had an airplane
I still think I might be late


Cause it take me so long
just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
then I have to brush my teeth
and try to get a brush through my hair


It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
cause that's my fun day
my I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday


Of all of the nights, why did my brother
have to pick last night to get loud
doesn't it matter that I have to get my sleep
or I will be a grouch

Mom yells up
in her meanest voice
Knock it off, boys,
and stop making noise

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
cause that's my fun day
my I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday
