Lyric

Tap Shoes Monday

Nocturne Echo

Monday came in gray

With a paper cup and a sigh

My shoes sat by the door

Like they knew how to make me fly

I tied on a little shine

On a floorboard, click by click

And the day went tap-tap-tap

Like it found my favorite trick

One step, then two

I heard my name in the hall

One step, then two

And the ceiling started to call

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

And the dark got out my way

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Now the whole town swings today

The brass leaned in close

Like they saw me change my face

Clarinet drew a line

Through the smoke and little lace

I spun past the mirror

With a grin I didn't plan

And my heel kept telling time

Like a runaway marching band

One step, then two

I heard my name in the hall

One step, then two

And the ceiling started to call

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

And the dark got out my way

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Now the whole town swings today

Ba-da, ba-da

Watch me make a clean escape

Ba-da, ba-da

From the corner of the same old shape

My feet say "come on"

My heart says "stay and play"

Then the piano laughs

And Monday turns to May

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

And the dark got out my way

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Tap shoes Monday

Now the whole town swings today
