Good Time
Carly Rae Jepsen Owl City Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Woke up on the right side of the bed
What's up with this Prince song inside my head?
'Cause it's always a good time
Slept in all my clothes like I didn't care
Hopped into a cab, take me anywhere
I'm in if you're down to get down tonight
'Cause it's always a good time
Good morning and good night
I wake up at twilight
It's gonna be alright
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time (good time, good time)
(It's always a good time)
(Whoa oh oh oh)
Freaked out, dropped my phone in the pool again
Checked out of my room, hit the ATM
Let's hang out if you're down to get down tonight
'Cause it's always a good time
Good morning and good night
I wake up at twilight
It's gonna be alright
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Doesn't matter when
It's always a good time then
Doesn't matter where
It's always a good time there
Doesn't matter when
It's always a good time then
(It's always a good time)
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
It's always a good time
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
The lyrics to Carly Rae Jepsen and Owl City's "Good Time" are all about having a carefree and enjoyable time, no matter what is going on in life. The song begins with the repetition of the chorus, "Whoa oh oh oh, it's always a good time" which sets the tone for the entire track - no matter what, we will have a good time. The lyrics that follow describe waking up in a good mood, with a fun song in the head and feeling ready to party. The mention of sleeping in clothes and hopping into a taxi shows just how spontaneous and unplanned the night is going to be, but how exciting it will be to just let loose and have a good time.
The second verse talks about dropping one's phone in the pool but not letting it get in the way of having fun. The verse ends with an invitation to hang out and have fun and the repetition of the chorus. The lyrics are relatable and emphasize the importance of leaving stress and worry behind in favour of creating positive memories with friends. The song also highlights how much we can enjoy life simply by embracing the present moment, rather than constantly worrying and trying too hard.

Something about being a kid during the late 2000’s and early 2010’s feels so magical. Going to the pool on a hot summer day, sitting in the backseat of a car listening to pop music on the radio, watching cartoons during the weekend, playing mobile games on parent’s phone, and just plain having fun. Doing kid stuff without a care in the world. It was just an amazing experience.
