This song was inspired by the young murderer Brenda Ann Spencer who shot two adults and several children from her house with a rifle given by her own father at her birthday (California 1979)--so much for a sweet sixteen.
The title I don't like Mondays is very peculiar because on interview, Miss Spencer was asked why she shot those children, and she replied with a simple "I don't like Mondays"
Tragic and disturbing I know, how the hatred for Mondays can cause the brain to malfunction.As for me, the song just represents how tedious and monotonous a Monday can be.
Maybe Miss Spencer felt the same way, maybe she needed a break from her own life, maybe her desire to kill was only to kill her own memories, her own self image.
Of course, the true story offers that she may have been on PCP, a drug which I am unfamiliar with.
My heart shrinks to the thought of those children, little angels.
Statistics say that Mondays are the least productive days on average, and I believe it.
Waking up from a lovely weekend to realize that a math surprise will show up at my desk, is motive enough to bury myself beneath my soft covers-- until reality splashes me with cold water and get up mumbling senseless stuff.
My dad complains for my lack of motivation, I do have motivation I do not have to wear it in my face.
My Mom believes in me, she does encourage me to have integrity within my mind and physical.
That is true.
My sister is always amused how chinky my eyes are in the morning--haha not!
My little sister is asleep and says nothing till I get home--she is the one that understands me the most.
Tell me why I don't like Mondays.
