rise and shine
Cheerful waking phrase
Rise and shine is a cheerful command to wake up and get out of bed, typically addressed to someone still sleeping: Rise and shine, kids—breakfast is ready!
The phrase pairs getting up with becoming alert and active.
It often carries a brisk, no-nonsense tone, sometimes used ironically when the hour is painfully early.
