Thirty Years of Mondays

by Max Solano

“Thirty years of the same bus and the same lanyard, and still hope at the end. I wrote it for my uncle, who never complained once.”

Lyrics

Thirty years of Mondays, same old bus
Same old lanyard, same old fuss
Now the clock is ticking for the last time
Friday's cake and a card, and a handshake line

Who will water my desk plant now
Who will laugh at my bad old jokes

Thirty years of Mondays, now I'm free
Sunday morning is waiting for me
Take my badge and take my chair
I'm leaving all my love right there
Thirty years of Mondays, thank you, friends
Here's to beginnings, not the ends
Clap your hands, the door swings wide
Sunshine's waiting on the other side

Garden gloves are by the door
Fishing rod and a map of shores
Grandkids calling, come and play
Every morning is a holiday

Who will water my desk plant now
I'll bring it home, I'll make it proud

Thirty years of Mondays, now I'm free
Sunday morning is waiting for me
Take my badge and take my chair
I'm leaving all my love right there
Thirty years of Mondays, thank you, friends
Here's to beginnings, not the ends
Clap your hands, the door swings wide
Sunshine's waiting on the other side

Slow coffee, no alarm
Walking home with nothing wrong
Every year a little song
Now I get to sing along

Thirty years of Mondays, now I'm free
Sunday morning is waiting for me
Take my badge and take my chair
I'm leaving all my love right there
Thirty years of Mondays, thank you, friends
Here's to beginnings, not the ends
Clap your hands, the door swings wide
Sunshine's waiting on the other side

Thirty years of Mondays
Hello, Sunday
