Lyrics

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 favourite 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 favourite 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

Notes

"Morning Glory" is the title track from Oasis' second studio album, *(What's the Story) Morning Glory?, released in 1995. Written by Noel Gallagher, the song reflects the band's signature rock sound with powerful guitar riffs and introspective lyrics.

The track, with its repeated question "What's the story, morning glory?", became one of Oasis’ iconic anthems and a staple of their live performances. Though not released as a single in the UK, it contributed significantly to the album’s success, which remains one of the best-selling albums in British history.
