(Rafferty/Egan)
Well, I was working for the taxman,
Digging out the facts at the Inland Revenue.
I was slowly going nowhere, thinking it was somewhere,
There was nothing I could do.
I got wasted every day of the week,
And come Sunday, well, I just couldn't speak.
Monday morning always comes around too soon,
Monday morning always comes around too soon,
Monday morning always comes around too soon.
Well, I was getting more frustrated
At the longer I waited, I thought I was led astray,
And the only thing I knew was the sound of rock 'n' roll
Kept taking me away.
I got wasted every day of the week,
And come Sunday, well, I just couldn't speak.
Monday morning always comes around too soon,
Monday morning always comes around too soon,
Monday morning always comes around too soon.

Stealers Wheel è stato un gruppo musicale rock scozzese formatosi a Paisley nel 1972 da Joe Egan e Gerry Rafferty, due amici d'infanzia. Il loro successo internazionale arrivò con l'album di debutto omonimo del 1973, che includeva il singolo "Stuck in the Middle with You", diventato un classico intramontabile grazie alla sua presenza nel film "Reservoir Dogs". La band ha pubblicato altri due album di successo, "Ferguslie Park" (1974) e "Right or Wrong" (1975), prima di sciogliersi nel 1976. Egan e Rafferty hanno proseguito le loro carriere musicali in modo indipendente, con Rafferty che ha raggiunto il successo solista con brani come "Baker Street". Stealers Wheel è ricordato per la sua musica folk-rock caratterizzata da melodie orecchiabili e testi poetici.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
