A letra:
Monday
has come around again
I'm in the same old place
With the same
old faces always watching me
Who knows how long I'll have to
stay
Could be a hundred years
Of sweat and tears
At the rate
that I get paid
Sometimes I slowly drift away
From
all the dull routine
That's with me every day
A fantasy will
come to me
Diamonds are what I really need
Think I'll rob a
store, escape the law
And live in Italy
Lately my luck has been so bad
You
know the roulette wheel's
A crooked deal
I'm losing all I had
Soon be like a man that's on the
run
And live from day to day
Never needing anyone
Play hide
and seek
Throughout the week
My life is full of romance
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
That's the way it's got to be
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
Though it won't be really me
From now on
You think I'm crazy I can see
It's
you for you, and me for me
Living in a fantasy
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
That's the way it's got to be
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
It's you for you, and me for me
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
That's the way it's got to be
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
It's you for you, and me for me
From now on, on,
on, on
Guess I'll always have to be
Living
in a fantasy
That's the way it's got to be?
From now on
Guess I'll always have to be
