Sometimes how happy you are on Monday, depends on what kind of Sunday you had. Basically about being discontent, but not enough energy to do anything about it.

Most of the song is about being not enough of a party animal to participate in fun, and about just giving up on the weekend and waiting until Monday for work again, so you have something to do!!
Lyrics
Happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
If I got a Sunday thrill
I should go and see my parents
The change would do me good
Breathe in the fresh country air
Go for a walk in the woods
I should clean up my apartment
Get this stuff all tided up
Snooze with the cat on the blankets
Wait until noon to get up
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
If I got a Sunday thrill
I'm not much one for parties
Not much good for getting out
Home and in bed by eleven
My say doesn't have much clout
It is safe to say my week sucked
Lots of stuff is going bad
Lying in bed until Monday
Just to keep from going mad
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
They'd be happy Mondays
If I got a Sunday thrill
