Biografia:
The Boomtown Rats (1975-1984) foram um grupo de punk rock/new wave liderado por Bob Geldof que se veio a tornar conhecido por organizar shows beneficentes, tais como Band Aid (com a intenção de ajudar as vítimas da fome na Etiópia), Live Aid, e Hands Across America (com intenção de ajudar os sem-teto dos Estados Unidos).
O seu maior êxito foi “I Don´t Like Mondays”, escrito a propósito do tiroteio numa escola executado por Brenda Ann Spencer, que disse tê-lo feito por não gostar das segundas-feiras.

I:
A C#m
Did you slip the noose when the beast broke loose
D E
The elephants graveyard ain't the place to be
A C#m
And white turns black, dies of heart attack
D E
The elephants graveyard needs the change of scene.
D E
You got the money, but who needs the tension
D E
And fear's no cheaper on the old age pension
D E
There's just one thing that I forgot to mention
Bm E
What've you got to lose when you know
CHORUS:
A C#m D
And you're guilty 'till proven guilty
E
Isn't that the law
A C#m D
Guilty 'till proven guilty
E F
That's what we all saw
II:
A C#m
Do the blue rinse shuffle with the beach boy muscle
D E
The elephants graveyard ain't the place to be
A C#m
Waiting all your life for this golf cart life
D E
The elephants graveyard needs the change of scene.
D E
You see the judge and then you check the jury
D E
She does her hair and calls the lawyer curti
D E
It's Disneyland under martial law
Bm E
Titch on the TV tell me what you saw
CHORUS:
A C#m D
They were guilty 'till proven guilty
E
Isn't that the law
A C#m D
Guilty 'till proven guilty
E F
That's what we all saw
BRIDGE:
F
Justice isn't blind
C F
It just looks the other way
F
Not from want of trying
E A
I have nothing left to say
CHORUS:
A C#m D
They were guilty 'till proven guilty
E
Isn't that the law
A C#m D
Guilty 'till proven guilty
E F
That's what we all saw
F
That's what we saw...
F
That's what we....
