The silicon chip inside her head

Gets switched to overload,

And nobody's gonna go to school today,

She's going to make them stay at home,

And daddy doesn't understand it,

He always said she was as good as gold,

And he can see no reason

Cos there are no reasons

What reason do you need to be shown



Tell me why

I Dont't like Mondays

I want to shoot

The whole day down



The Telex machine is kept so clean

As it types to a waiting world,

And Mother feels so shocked,

Father's world is rocked,

And their thoughts turn to

Their own little girl

Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen,

No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat,

They can see no reasons

Cos there are no reasons

What reason do you need to be shown



Tell me why ...



All the playing's stopped in the playground now

She wants to play with her toys a while

And school's out early and soon we'll be learning

And the lesson today is how to die,

And then the bullhorn crackles,

And the captain crackles,

With the problems and the how's and why's

And he can see no reasons

Cos there are no reasons

What reason do you need to die



The silicon chip ...



Tell me why ...



(Bob Geldof)
