Discover the story of the song > Manic Monday – Billie Joe Armstrong

The protagonist of the song is having a hectic Monday. He had a dream about kissing his partner by a beautiful stream, but he can't be late for work or he won't get paid. He has to catch a train and figure out what to wear, but no matter what, he always seems to be running late. On top of that, his partner chose last night to be intimate, even though he has to provide for both of them. Despite all this, he wishes it was Sunday, his day off, and not another crazy Monday.
