Good Day
Tally Hall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'd like to say hello and welcome you
Good day that is my name
Come here and sit down I'm so glad you even really truly came

We can even go and take a walk or something like that or something like that. But first I need to introduce my what and introduce my when.
(let us sing) ah

It's a name I like to call it likes to say its nothing (it's nothing) It lives and breathes and it consists that it insists that it is something
(It's something) It never liked to speak or run or walk or sleep or eat (oh) It even thought that everybody tried to thought to take its seat
(Oh God)

Looking through glass eyes
Give it a few tries
Nothing goes ridding its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wander by no things
Circles and spirals in mind

But we know that this song is not a bunch of noise that's so white. what's really truly what I say is just about a little sigh (ahhh) So come along I think I'm done I think we're done yes this is done. what's truly that I think about it and it thinks about a ton.
(Let us sing) ahh

Looking through glass eyes
Give it a few tries
Nothing goes ridding its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wander by no things
Circles and spirals in mind

I thought you knew I knew but why and bye and why and bye and bye. I wanted you to know I thought you knew my why and bye and why.

(everyone loves a potato monkey)
(I stepped on gum over in fern gully)
Let us sing let us sing let us sing let us sing
(a sculpture you say? well...)
(Have you ever seen us sing? its in the middle of the morning skipper.)
(you have two scissors and the computer you can...)




Let us sing let us sing let us sing let us sing
(Birds and seeds and television cardboard houses x-ray vision, many little silly minds and things are getting lost at times, (I don't want to be bit by a spider) telephones and silly things periods of lots of question marks)

Overall Meaning

The song "Good Day" by Tally Hall opens with a welcoming tone, as if the singer is inviting the listener to come and sit down, expressing gratitude for their presence. The song then transitions to a discussion about something called "my what and introduce my when," which is described as a living entity that insists it is something but doesn't like to speak, walk, run, eat, or sleep. The singer describes looking at it through glass eyes and ridding its time of bad dreams, creating circles and spirals in its mind. Despite this description, the singer insists that the song is not just a bunch of noise, but rather an exploration of a little sigh. The song concludes with random phrases and thoughts that seem nonsensical yet playful.

Its name I like to call it likes to say it's nothing (it's nothing)
It lives and breathes and it insists that it insists that it is something (it's something)
It never liked to speak or run or walk or sleep or eat (oh-ee oh-ee oh)
It even thought that everybody tried to thought to take its seat

Looking through glass eyes
Give it a few tries
Nothing goes right in its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wonder 'bout no things
Circles and spirals in mind

But we know that this song is not about a no or yes or why
What's really truly what I say is that about a little sigh
So come along I think I'm done I think we're done yes this is done
What's truly that I think about it and it thinks about a ton

Let us sing! (Ahh, ahh ahh)

Looking through glass eyes
Giving a few tries
Nothing goes right in its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wonder 'bout no things
Circles and spirals in mind

I thought you knew I knew but
Why and by and why and by and by
I wanted you to know
I thought you knew but
Why and by and why

(Everyone loves a potato monkey...
I stepped in gum! I stepped in gum! Ohoho!

If you have two scissors and a computer, then you can...)

Let us sing!

Birds and bees and television
Cardboard houses, x-ray vision
Many little silly rhymes
Things forgotten lost their times
Telephones and silly games
Periods and lots of question marks

This feels like an intro song to a sitcom which after hearing in the show hunderds of times you decide to look up a full/extended version of.

@antekson

And the extended version would play in the actual show only once during a special episode

@Constantiso

indeed
