Monday Flowers - Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness

He brought her flowers on a Monday

Tuesday they spent all day in bed

Wednesday it rained

And Thursday was a river

Of the kind of words she wished he hadn’t said

He left her on a Friday

Her Saturday was shot

The bells in the cathedral rang on Sunday

Monday flowers were all she got

He loved her, and he loved her not

Some girls fall in love for money

Some girls are happy on their own

Some girls just want a man to hold them in their arm

Some girls go out at night

Some girls like staying home

He brought her flowers on a Monday

Tuesday they kept the curtains closed

Wednesday it rained

And Thursday was a river

Pulling petals down from a single rose

He left her on a Friday

Her Saturday was shot

The bells in the cathedral rang on Sunday

Monday flowers were all she got

He loved her, and he loved her not
