Lyrics Wishing the Days Away - Billy Bragg
On
Monday
I
wished
it
was
Tuesday
night
So
I
could
wish
for
the
weekend
to
come
On
Tuesday
I
wished
that
the
night
would
pass
So
I
could
call
you
on
the
phone
Now
a
man
can
spend
a
lot
of
time
Wondering
what
was
on
Jack
Ruby's
mind
And
time
is
all
I
have
without
you
here
On
Wednesday
when
you
hung
up
It
was
as
much
as
I
could
do
To
stop
from
wishing
Thursday
Would
pass
so
quickly
too
They're
out
there
making
history
In
the
Lenin
Shipyards
today
And
here
I
am
in
the
Hammersmith
Hotel
Wishing
the
days
away
There's
always
room
for
one
more
soul
Down
in
the
Human
Zoo
I
don't
want
you
to
come
here
though
I
want
to
come
home
to
you
Somebody's
knocking
at
the
door
Its
later
than
I
think
And
its
time
to
put
on
these
stinking
clothes
And
get
out
there
and
stink
On
Friday
I
wished
there
was
something
more
To
be
seen
in
the
letters
you
send
On
Saturday
I
wished
it
was
Sunday
Oh
will
this
torment
ever
end
Sometimes
I
get
a
notion
to
put
a
torch
To
the
tools
of
my
trade
Here
I
am
in
the
Hammersmith
Hotel
Wishing
the
days
away
