I don't know, Clinton... sounds like she's suffering from something along the lines of disassociative schizoid paranoia. Pretty common delusions...

Of course, it's also not cureable, so it's the difference between being locked up in a prison or locked up in an asylum. Well, I guess the meds are better in the asylum...

But as to the song...

I'm going off of memory here, but in an interview, I seem to remember Geldoff (of the BOOMTOWN Rats, not 'Boontown', as the link states) wrote the song in one go in a couple hours after hearing and being... er... "inspired" by the shooting.

It's also noteable that this was one of two songs on similar topics that came out nearly at the same time. The other was by a punk band (I want to say the Stranglers, but I'm pretty sure that's wrong), and was called "Gary Gilmore's Eyes", written about the execution of convicted murderer Gary Gilmore (I believe in Boston?). In any case, "Mondays" steamrollered "Gilmore", probably because "Mondays" is just such a haunting melody.
