Lyrics
Monday morning
Start of the workweek, symbolizing routine and mundanity
Party's over
Fun or enjoyment has ended
No one talking
Silence or lack of communication among people

Transition to facing consequences or obligations
It's time to pay
Indicates it's time to meet a responsibility or debt
It's time to pay the clown
