Good Day
DNCE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't care what anybody else say
Oh-oh-oh, I don't need a fortune cookie to tell me the way I'm feeling
Gonna be a good day
A good day
Woke up, just woke up
My girlfriend warned me that I drink too much
Head pounds like the bass on a party bus
Memories, the memories, the Instagram's tellin' me everything
But I regret nothing, oh
Oo-oo-oo, I feel like a million bucks in the toilet
Oo-oo-oo, my head to my toes to my soul has been poisoned
Living proof, that even when you're whole life has been destroyed, shit
You still can enjoy it
Today is gonna be a good day
Don't care what anybody else say
Oh-oh-oh, I don't need a fortune cookie to tell me the way I'm feeling
Gonna be a good day
A good day
A good day
(It's gonna be a what?)
A good day
Last night, last night
Got in a fight with the karaoke mic
Shots fired, of Fireball
Can't tell what's the ceiling or what's the wall
Oh-oh-oh, I feel like a million bucks in the toilet
Oh-oh-oh, my head to my toes to my soul has been poisoned
Living proof, that even when you're whole life has been destroyed, shit
You still can enjoy it
Today is gonna be a good day
Don't care what anybody else say
Oh-oh-oh, I don't need a fortune cookie to tell me the way I'm feeling
Gonna be a good day
A good day
Keep it going up, I'll keep it going, I'll keep it going, ah-woo
Keep it going, I'll keep it going, I'll keep it going, ah-woo
When the mornin' comes, when the mornin' comes, still we're going, ah-woo
Keep it going, I'll keep it going, I'll keep it going, ah-woo
Aw yeah, okay I'm going to sit down for a sec
Need a bloody mary
Today is gonna be a good day
Don't care what anybody else say
Oh... ouch
Today is gonna be a good day
(That's right)
Don't care what anybody else say
(Don't care, don't care what anybody says)
Oh-oh-oh, I don't need a fortune cookie to tell me the way I'm feeling
Gonna be a good day
A good day
Gonna be a good day (Keep it going, ah-woo)
Don't care what anybody else say (Keep it going, ah-woo)
Oh-oh-oh, I don't need a fortune cookie to tell me the way I'm feeling
Gonna be a good day (Keep it going, ah-woo)
A good day
Ah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Good day
Ah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Good day
Ah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Good day
Ah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Good day
The lyrics of "Good Day" by DNCE revolves around having a positive outlook on life despite its difficulties. The song is about waking up in the morning after a wild night of partying and feeling a bit rough but still choosing to have a good day no matter what anyone else says. The lyrics paint a picture of partying hard and experiencing the consequences of overindulging, but it doesn't dampen the upbeat tone of the song. The chorus is particularly catchy, with lead singer Joe Jonas declaring that he doesn't need a fortune cookie to know that today is going to be a good day.
The verse talks about waking up with a hangover and the memories of the night before. The second verse particularly showcases the consequences of their wild behavior. They got into a fight with the karaoke machine and drank too much Fireball, leading to them not being able to distinguish between the ceiling and the wall. Despite all these, they still choose to enjoy the day and keep it going.
