About The Song
“Monday, Monday” is a 1966 song by the American folk rock group the Mamas & the Papas. Written by John Phillips, it was the group’s biggest hit, reaching number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. The song’s distinctive opening vocal line, “Bah-da bah-da-da-da,” has become iconic and is instantly recognizable.
The song is a humorous and relatable depiction of the universal dread of Mondays, personifying the day as a domineering and oppressive force. The lyrics capture the feeling of being trapped in a never-ending cycle of work and routine, with lines like “Monday, Monday, can’t trust that day” and “Monday, Monday, takes the jokes away.”
Lyrics
Bah-da bah-da-da-da
Bah-da bah-da-da-da
Bah-da bah-da-da-da
Monday, Monday, so good to me
Monday mornin', it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday mornin', Monday mornin' couldn't guarantee
That Monday evenin' you would still be here with me
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day
Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday mornin' you gave me no warnin' of what was to be
Oh Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me
Every other day, every other day
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
A-you can find me cryin' all of the time
Monday, Monday, so good to me
Monday mornin', it was all I hoped it would be
But Monday mornin', Monday mornin' couldn't guarantee
That Monday evenin' you would still be here with me
Every other day, every other day
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah (yeah)
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
A-you can find me cryin' all of the time
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day
Monday, Monday, it just turns out that way
Oh Monday, Monday, won't go away
Monday, Monday, it's here to stay
Oh Monday, Monday
Oh Monday, Monday
