"Manic Monday" si installò nelle classifiche inglesi e americane fino a raggiungere il secondo posto senza superare - ironia della sorte - "Kiss" di Prince, stabilmente al numero 1. Fu inserita come primo brano nell'album "Different light".
Il testo parla del risveglio da un sogno romantico alle sei di mattino di un lunedì! Naturale desiderare che invece fosse ancora domenica...
MANIC MONDAY
Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
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 funday
My I don't have to runday
It's just another manic Monday
Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an air-o-plane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long
Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there
All of the nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
Time it goes so fast
When you're having fun
