Lyrics
Verse 1: It's a Monday
The phone's ringin' off the hook
Will I be okay?
If they ask me to do more
I don't know what I'll say
Don't know the magic words that will convey
That I'm
Chorus: Stressed
Runnin' at full speed
And I'm doin' my best
When I come home late at night, and I get undressed
How do I fall asleep when I'm this stressed?
How do I fall asleep when I'm this stressed?
How do I fall asleep
Verse 2: It's a Wednesday

Am I headed for nowhere
In a roundabout way?
I'm doing overtime and underpaid
And I'm
Chorus
Bridge: I breathe in deep, get off my feet
Take my time and still my mind
But I'm
Chorus
