Paroles
[Verse 1]
Sun comes in my window
Paints the floor gold
Bird on the gutter
Singing out bold
I lace up slow
And the world says, go
[Pre-Chorus]
You can feel it now
In your chest, in your hands
Like a drumroll waking
Up the street, up the land
[Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
[Verse 2]
Orange peel on my fingers
Sweet bite on my tongue
Backyard neighbor shouting
"Hey, the day's begun"
Even my old hard luck
Feels lighter than dust
[Pre-Chorus]
You can feel it now
When the breeze turns kind
When the whole dark worry
Falls behind, falls behind
[Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
[Bridge]
Oh, I was worn
Now I'm wide awake
Oh, I was low
Now I bend, not break
Put that grin on me
Watch me rise, watch me rise
[Final Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
Whole damn day
Feels brand new
Sun comes in my window
Paints the floor gold
Bird on the gutter
Singing out bold
I lace up slow
And the world says, go
[Pre-Chorus]
You can feel it now
In your chest, in your hands
Like a drumroll waking
Up the street, up the land
[Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
[Verse 2]
Orange peel on my fingers
Sweet bite on my tongue
Backyard neighbor shouting
"Hey, the day's begun"
Even my old hard luck
Feels lighter than dust
[Pre-Chorus]
You can feel it now
When the breeze turns kind
When the whole dark worry
Falls behind, falls behind
[Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
[Bridge]
Oh, I was worn
Now I'm wide awake
Oh, I was low
Now I bend, not break
Put that grin on me
Watch me rise, watch me rise
[Final Chorus]
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
I got the kind
That won't sit still
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
One little grin
And I'm lit again
Joy in my shoes
Joy in my chest
Whole damn day
Feels brand new
Style de musique
Pop with buoyant four-on-the-floor drums, handclaps on the backbeat, bright acoustic guitar skanks, and a bouncing synth bass; verse stays light and stripped, pre-chorus lifts with filtered pads and rising vocal stacks, chorus opens wide with gang vocals and clap hits. Lead vocal is close-mic and smiling, with doubled hook lines, short delay throws, and ooh ad-libs. Ear candy includes finger snaps, a quick drum fill into each chorus, and a sparkly bell flourish at the end. Mix is glossy, warm, and punchy.
