I'm feelin' groovy, kickin' down the cobblestones And there is music in every sight and every sound No need for headphones I'll tip my cap to the world even though I don't wear one Grinnin' at the women in the salon gettin' their hair done On the outside looking in like an aquarium Spinnin' with the stars in the planetarium Deliriously, mysteriously I'm feelin' curiously marvelously 'Super Duper' like Joss Stone My heart melts like ice cream cones Grinnin' like a dog diggin' up dinosaur bones I used to be fossilized but now I'm out of my shell And I'm happier than whores with chivalrous clientèle This can't be real, I must be dreamin' could somebody slap me I'm feelin' so mischievous, original cheeky chappy It must be ages since I felt satisfied Just to be Just Jack and just that, still intact It's just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepared to be amazed It's just another one of those, just another one of those Just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepared to be amazed It's just another one of those glory days I'm so warm, new dawn, reborn, new forms And I'm thinkin' about my boys Joelly chic and Freshly Sean And I know you're underrated but one day we'll all make it And walk around naked with our bullocks platinum plated Anyway, I'm off track gotta stop that And get back to the high street, I need somethin' to eat Stop at the cafe, coffee and a salt beef bagel Yeah, I know I'm Cain'd but now I'm feelin' Abel I used to get so paranoid In places like this Stayed in my house for days with my weed psychosis My neurosis was thinkin' everybody's staring at my red eyes And shifty expression but now I'm past carin' And I can feel that destiny is on my side And by the looks of things, fate came along for the ride Behind green skies, I can see my girl's eyes Damn it, I'm in love with this planet, you gotta realize It's just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepared to be amazed It's just another one of those, just another one of those Just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepare to be amazed It's just another one of those glory days It's time to look to the future Just when I was gettin' used to the humdrum I realized in the depths of my depression That I really wanted to be someone So let's smash the past like a tacky figurine On the back page of a supplementary magazine But for the time being, bump your head to the beat Sit back, put your feet up and relax It's just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepared to be amazed It's just another one of those, just another one of those Just another one of those glory days Jump out your bed, shake your head, clear the haze Step out your house and prepare to be amazed It's just another one of those glory days
