Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You twinkle above us, We twinkle below
Good morning starshine, you lead us along
My love and me as we sing our early morning singing song
Gliddy glup gloopy nibby nabby nooby la la la lo lo
Sabba sibby sabba nooby abba nabba le le lo lo
Tooby ooby walla nooby abba nabba
Early morning singing song
Good morning starshine, the earth says "Hello"
You twinkle above us, We twinkle below
Good morning starshine, You lead us along
My love and me as we sing our early morning singing song
Gliddy glup gloopy nibby nabby nooby la la la lo lo
Sabba sibby sabba nooby abba nabba le le lo lo
Tooby ooby walla nooby abba nabba
Early morning singing song
Singing a song, humming a song, singing a song
Loving a song, laughing a song, sing the song
Sing the song, song the sing
Song, song, song, sing, sing, sing, sing song
The song "Good Morning Starshine" is a classic tune from the 1960s musical "Hair". The song is characterized by its catchy, repetitive melody and its nonsensical lyrics, which are meant to express the beauty and wonder of nature. The song opens with the line "Good morning starshine, the earth says 'Hello,'" which is meant to convey the idea that the world is waking up and greeting the new day.
The next lines of the song, "You twinkle above us, we twinkle below," are a metaphor for the interconnectedness of all things in the universe. The stars in the sky are a symbol of hope and inspiration, and their twinkling represents the joy and energy that emanates from all living things. The line "You lead us along, my love and me" suggests that the star is not just a symbol of nature but also a guide for human beings, directing them on their journey through life.
The nonsensical lyrics that follow, "Gliddy glup gloopy nibby nabby nooby la la la lo lo" and "Sabba sibby sabba nooby abba nabba le le lo lo," are meant to evoke a sense of childlike wonder and playfulness, as if the singers are playing a game of make-believe with the universe. The last lines of the song, "Singing a song, humming a song, loving a song, laughing a song, sing the song," express the joy and simplicity of life, reminding us that sometimes the most important things in life are the simplest.
