Startin' Monday I'm cleanin' the slate, gonna quit smokin' start losin' some weight tell someone I'm sorry, oh its gonna be great Startin' Monday
Startin' Monday I'll be cheatin' fate Here, I've written it down, I've circled the date Right now is not good but I'll charge out the gate Startin' Monday
I know I've said it before, but this time I'm determined to be what I know I can be Don't need a "how-to" book or some do-gooders sermon to change my own destiny
And Startin' Monday I'll be playin' it straight, choosing only the good things to put on my plate reversing the engine, rewinding the tape Startin' Monday
I'm well aware of the fact I've got only a weekend to get all my ducks in a row I'll be workin' real hard to get out of my system a few wild oats left to sow
But Startin' Monday there'll be no debate I'll start readin' my Bible, rise early, work late, recycle, stay sober, chose love over hate Startin' Monday
Startin' Monday fix all my mistakes Startin' Monday
