Morning Glory
- oasis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All your dreams are made
When you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade
Today's the day that all the world will see
Another sunny afternoon
Walking to the sound of my favorite tune
Tomorrow never knows what it doesn't know too soon

Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to wake up wake up
Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to rest your mind

You know you should so I guess you might as well
What's the story morning glory?
Well
You need a little time to wake up wake up
Well
What's the story morning glory?
Well
Need a little time to wake up wake up

All your dreams are made
When you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade
Today's the day that all the world will see
Another sunny afternoon
Walking to the sound of my favorite tune
Tomorrow never knows what it doesn't know too soon

Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to wake up wake up
Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to rest your mind

You know you should so I guess you might as well
What's the story morning glory?
Well
Need a little time to wake up wake up
Well
What's the story morning glory?
Well
You need a little time to wake up wake up
Well
What's the story morning glory?
Well
Need a little time to wake up wake up
Well
What's the story morning glory?




(I said) well
Need a little time to wake up wake up

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Oasis’s “Morning Glory” can be interpreted in different ways, but at its core, the song seems to be about taking a moment to reflect on life and find clarity. The first couple of lines bring up the image of someone staring at themselves in the mirror, perhaps indulging in self-destructive behavior as the razor blade implies. The following line, “today’s the day that all the world will see,” suggests that there comes a point where one’s actions and consequences cannot be hidden.


The song then segues into a moment of reflection, where the singer admits that they “need a little time to wake up” and “rest their mind." This theme is repeated throughout the song, indicating that taking time for oneself is crucial to finding understanding and meaning in life. The chorus then asks, “what’s the story morning glory?” which could be interpreted as a rhetorical question aimed at oneself, wondering what path they should take in life.


All in all, “Morning Glory” has a relatable message about finding meaning in life and taking time to reflect on one’s actions. It encourages listeners to step back from their busy lives and find mental peace for the sake of their own well-being.
