Story behind the song

For years I worked as a General Motors sales department manager. I could never complain about the money but I couldn't wait until the day I could afford to early retire. That day came in 2008 and then 2 months later the big market crash occurred, and within the year all of the GM dealerships I had ever worked for were closed down. What irony! Fortunately, I fared much better than the fears which had originally motivated this song.

Lyrics

Gets up in the morning late
But gets to work right at eight
His job he really now hates 
'Cause every day is monday

Hands in his report to
His boss who he can see through
He knows he's gonna get screwed
'Cause every day is monday...

Next office is a sly one
A sexy female hired gun
She says she wants to have fun
But somehow he should turn and run

The meeting in the next room
Could lead to his career doom
The inscription on his corporate tomb
Says "Every day was monday"
Every day is monday...
