Sunday Morning
Ofln - No Doubt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sappy pathetic little me
That was the girl I used to be
You had me on my knees
I'd trade you places any day
I'd never thought you could be that way
Well you came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I thought I knew you (whoa)
I thought I knew you (whoa)
I thought I knew you well, so well
You're trying my shoes on for a change
They look so good but fit so strange
Out of fashion, so I can complain
Well you came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I thought I knew you (whoa)
I thought I knew you (whoa)
I thought I knew you well, so well
I know who I am, but who are you?
You're not looking like you used to
You're on the other side of the mirror
So nothing's looking quite as clear
Thank you for turning on the lights
Thank you, now you're the parasite
I didn't think you had it in you
And now you're looking like I used to!
You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
And you want me badly
Because you cannot have me
I thought I knew you (whoa)
But I've got a new view (whoa)
I thought I knew you well, oh well
Ooh
On Sunday morning
And I don't want it
Sunday morning
I thought I knew you
Sunday morning
Oh you want me badly
Can I have it
Sunday morning
Sunday morning
Sunday morning
The lyrics of Ofln - No Doubt's song Sunday Morning depict a story of a person who is shocked to see the change in someone they know. The first verse is the singer talking about themselves, saying they used to be weak and vulnerable, and the second person made them feel inferior. However, they never expected the second person to change in- and outwards, surprising the singer. The chorus "Well you came in with the breeze on Sunday morning, You sure have changed since yesterday, Without any warning" encapsulates the gist of the song. The singer thought they knew the person well, but upon inspection, they realize how wrong they were.
The third verse portrays the singer's confusion about the situation. They are now seeing the other person from a whole new perspective and are uncertain about how they fit into the picture. The final verse is almost like the singer's comeback where they thank the person for changing as they have helped the singer see themselves more clearly. Now they see that the second person is becoming like they were, which is why the person is willing to do anything to obtain what they lost. The song ends with the singer pondering over whether letting them have it is worth it.

Sappy pathetic little me
I used to be weak and vulnerable
That was the girl I used to be
I used to be a different person than I am now
You had me on my knees
You controlled me and made me submit to your power
I'd trade you places any day
I would be willing to switch lives with you
I'd never thought you could be that way
I never imagined you would act in that manner
But you looked like me on Sunday
You resembled me in some way on a Sunday
Well you came in with the breeze
You entered with a light and refreshing feeling
On Sunday morning
On a particular day of the week
You sure have changed since yesterday
You have dramatically changed from the way you were before
Without any warning
Without any indication that change was imminent
I thought I knew you (whoa)
I thought I understood who you were
You're trying my shoes on for a change
You are experiencing my perspective for once
They look so good but fit so strange
The experience is appealing yet uncomfortable
Out of fashion, so I can complain
The experience is outdated and therefore subject to criticism
I know who I am, but who are you?
I have my own identity, but I am not sure about yours
You're not looking like you used to
Your appearance has changed drastically
You're on the other side of the mirror
You are now in a position opposite to the one you used to be in
So nothing's looking quite as clear
Everything seems a bit confusing and uncertain
Thank you for turning on the lights
Thank you for bringing clarity to the situation
Thank you, now you're the parasite
Thank you, but you have become a negative influence
I didn't think you had it in you
I did not expect you to act in that way
And now you're looking like I used to!
You are starting to resemble the person I used to be
And you want me badly
You desire me intensely
Because you cannot have me
Because you are not able to obtain me
But I've got a new view (whoa)
I have a fresh perspective now
Oh you want me badly
You desire me intensely
Can I have it
Can I have what you have to offer
And I don't want it
I do not desire what you have to offer
Sunday morning
A particular day of the week
I thought I knew you
I believed I had a good understanding of who you were
Sunday morning
A particular day of the week
Oh you want me badly
You desire me intensely
Sunday morning
A particular day of the week
Sunday morning
A particular day of the week

@sabin97
she was fierce.
as a solo artist she sounds just like the same mass produced pop crap you see everywhere.....
with no doubt she helped shape the 90s with her awesome style and voice.
