No one is cold on Monday!A Planet Called Monday/Epilogue
One of the strangest adventures the IGTB ever experienced was a trip to A
PLANET CALLED MONDAY. Without any permanent source of heat, the inhabitants
had to come up with a means of artificially heating their planet. Thus was
established the "Climb for Life", the spiral staircases that
brought their people to the top of the sky where they burned, their bodies
giving off the energy to let others live. This "Golden Sunrise"
would be a sight the IGTB would not forget.
Monday Morning, (ooh, ooh), everybody's yawning, (ooooh)
Gotta get up, get out, get into town, musn't be late Silent travellers, (ooh, ooh), never speaking, (ooooh) Only the buzz of a terminal bubble Cruising the airways circling round Monday Morning, (ooh, ooh), everybody's crawling, (ooooh) Spiral Stairways to the Sun! Monday Morning, (ooh, ooh), everybody's yawning, (ooooh) Got to keep the fires high, Send them all into the sky Save us from etternal night We need, (aah), sunlight! (aah) Monday Morning, silence crawling, (ooh, ooh) Someone's got to keep this planet turning Make us warm so we may rise again Someone's got to keep the fires burning No one's cold when stairs unfold on Monday Morning! Monday Morning! Monday Morning! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! No one's cold on Monday Morning! Once we lazed on sun soaked beaches frying Golden people blessed with days of light Now we only climb to keep from dying! No one's cold when stairs unfold on Monday Morning, everybody's crawling, Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways, Spiral Stairways Monday Morning, Spiral Stairways, Monday Morning Spiral Stairways, Monday Morning, Spiral Stairways Monday Morning, Spiral Stairways  Golden Sunrise, meets the dawn Bubbles cruising air over spaceway trains Golden Sunrise, through the haze Towers rise and fall, rise and shine Golden Sunrise, (Golden Sunrise), Monday Morning Golden Sunrise, (Golden Sunrise), Monday Morning Golden Sunrise, (Golden Sunrise), Monday Morning Golden Sunrise, (Golden Sunrise), Monday Morning... |

WebMaster's Note
I get chills from this song. It reminds me of the story in "Logan's Run". You can have all of the joys and luxuries
of life by just asking for them, indulge in all manner of excess, but when you reach a certain age you must die, so that
others may live in your place. "A Planet Called Monday" is an extreme example of that idea, but what a compelling
image it presents! I have no doubt that the members of the IGTB were very impressed with what they saw.
