lyrics

Once a week, I'm a superstar
Got a special seat at the bar
The smoothest voice that you've ever heard
And I don't need to read the words
Don't even care if they like my song
And I don't care if they sing along
'Cause all I need is a microphone
And I don't care that I go home alone

'Cause it's Monday night
And I think I'm gonna bring the house down
Maybe you could sing a song or two
But I think we know that I sing better than you

I see you take another long look
To find your weapon in the songbook
The DJ already knows mine
'Cause I've been comin' here for a long time
Just ask the girl at the hostess stand
She really wants me to be her man
She's just too shy to applaud, you see
Must be too shy just to talk to me

But it's Monday night (Monday night)
And I think I'm gonna bring the house down
Maybe you could sing a song or two
I think we know that I sing better than you
Well, it's Monday night (Monday night)
And I think I'm gonna get a standin' O
I'm sure you'll sing your little song just fine
I think we know that they came to hear mine

Hold on till...
Just a little longer still
One of these days and she'll
Look my way, then we'll
Take a bus into the city lights
She'll take my hand and we'll talk all night
Just as long as she holds me tight
Everything will be all right

But here's the real sad thing
That no matter how high I sing
She'll never want to be with me
But I still got my one night a week

And that's Monday night (Monday night)
And I think I'm gonna bring the house down
Maybe you could sing a song or two
I think we know that I sing better than you
Well, it's Monday night (Monday night)
And I think I'm gonna get a standin' O
I'm sure you'll sing your little song just fine
I think we know that they came
They came to hear mine
(Monday night, Monday night)
They came to hear mine
(Monday night, Monday night)
(Monday night, Monday night)
(Monday night, Monday night)
They came to hear mine

about

Sidewalk Driver Boston

The music of Sidewalk Driver is high energy, highly-infectious, hook-driven, Rock with a capital 'R.' The sound is modern but the heart of the band seems to be more in line with 1970s rock culture - the Bowies & the Belushis of the world. The songs always come with some odd bent but not one that repels; rather, they welcome you to join in the celebration like a carnival barker hyping a freak show. ... more
