Morning Glory- Oasis
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 in "Morning Glory" by Oasis speak to the struggles of addiction and the difficulty of breaking free from it. The lines "All your dreams are made/When you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade" refer to the addiction being tied to the person's self-image and the device they use to consume the substance.


The chorus line "What's the story morning glory?" is a British slang phrase meaning "What's going on?", which adds layers to the song's message of trying to rise above addiction and the consequences it can bring. The repeated phrase "Need a little time to wake up" speaks to the desire to break free from addiction and gain a fresh perspective, but acknowledges that the process takes time.


The song's upbeat tempo and catchy melody contrast with the heavy subject matter, highlighting the complexity of addiction and the way it can consume a person's life. The message of the song is ultimately hopeful, suggesting that change is possible with time and effort.

The perfect song to walk to during one of those rare sunny mornings where you're feeling optimistic and hopeful for no real reason.
