Verse 1:
Hey, my name is Jim, I fought in Vietnam
My life's a bargain basement, all the good s___'s gone
I just can't hold a job. Where did I go wrong?
I'm sleeping in my car. My dreams moved on

Verse 2:
My name is Billy Jean, my love is bought and sold
I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
My foster daddy went and took my innocence away
The street life ain't much better but at least I'm getting paid

Pre-Chrous:
Tuesday just might go my way
It can't get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
But somehow I'll survive

Chorus:
Hey, man, I'm alive as long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by
When I wanna die I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
I'm feeling like a Monday but I wish I were a Saturday night

Verse 3:
I can't say my name, my life is on the line
They say that I'm to blame, that I'm guilty of a crime
I wish that I could be in another time and place
With someone else's soul and someone else's face

Pre-Chorus:
This world ain't so cut and dry
but I can't 'why?' wrong or right
I ain't here to justify
what I gotta do to survive

Chorus:
Hey, man, I'm alive as long as I can breathe, as
long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by
When I wanna die I pick up all the pieces and
what's left of my pride
I'm feeling like a Monday but I wish I were a Saturday night
I'm feeling like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night

[Solo]

Pre-Chorus:
Tuesday just might go my way
It can't get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
Somehow I'll survive

Chorus:
Hey, man, I'm alive as long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
Hey man, I know I'll get by
When I wanna die, I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
I'm feeling like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night
I'm feeling like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night
I'm feeling like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night
