Lirik Lagu “I Don’t Like Monday” yang Judulnya Jadi Istilah Populer!

Bagi para penganut I Hate Monday atau I Don’t Like Monday, sepertinya perlu tahu bagaimana asal istilah yang ternyata dipopulerkan oleh sebuah band asal Irlandia, Boomtown Rats.

Melansir dari Ultimateclassicrock.com, lagu mereka yang populer adalah I Don’t Like Monday. Yang terinspirasi dari penembakan di sekolah yang dilakukan Brenda Spencer pada 29 Januari 1979.

Brenda Spencer yang berusia 16 tahun yang pernah melakukan pencurian kecil serta perencanaan kekerasan, melepaskan tembakan dari dalam rumahnya ke siswa Sekolah Dasar San Diego Grover Cleveland yang ada di seberang jalan.

Ia menembakkan 30 butir amunisi dalam waktu 15 menit. Senjata api yang digunakan merupakan hadiah natal dari ayahnya.

Mirisnya, Brenda  mengatakan kalau dirinya hanya melakukan hal yang membuat hatinya senang.

Lagu I Don’t Like Monday ciptaan Boomtown Rats dirilis 6 bulan setelah kejadian tersebut dan sempat menduduki peringkat 1 di Inggris Raya.

Lirik lagu I Don’t Like Monday

The silicon chip inside her dead

Gets switched to overload

And nobody’s gonna go to school today

She’s gonna make them stay at home

And daddy doesn’t understand it

He always said she was good as gold

And he can see no reasons

‘Cause there are no reasons

What reason do you need to be shown?

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays 

I wanna shoot hole day down

 The Telex machine is kept so clean 

And it types tp a waiting world

Her mother feels so shocked, father’s world is rocked

And their thoughts turn to thei own little girl

Sweet sixteen, ain’t that peachy keen

Now it ain’t so neat to admit defeat

They can see no reasons

‘Cause there are no reasons

What reasons do you need, oh oh oh oh? 

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays 

I wanna shoot hole day down

Down, down, shoot it all down

And all the playing’s stopped in the playground now

She wants to play with the toys a while 

And school’s out early and soon we be learning

And the lesson today is how to die

And the the bullhorn crackles and the captain tackles

With the problems and the hows and whys

 And he can see no reasons

‘Cause there are nor reasons

What reason do you need to die, die, oh oh oh?

The silicon chip inside her head

Gets switched to overload

And noboby’s gonna go to school today

She’s gonna make them stay at home

And daddy doesn’t understand it

He always said she was good as gold

And he can see no reasons

‘Cause there are no reasons

What reason do yo need to be shown? 

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like 

I don’t like

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like

I don’t like

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

(Tell me why)

I don’t like Mondays

I wanna shoot hole day down
