About the trend
What is the "Wake up, it's the first of the month" cows meme?
By the First of the Month Cows developer · Updated
"Wake up, it's the first of the month" is a meme that comes back on the 1st of every month. The classic version is a fan edit that pairs dancing cartoon cows with the 1995 Bone Thugs-N-Harmony song "1st of tha Month", and people repost it every month as a ritual. Since November 1, 2026 a new version has spread on TikTok: realistic AI cows stand up in a meadow and dance, tagged #firstofthemonth and #dancingcows. People search for it as "wake up its the first of the month" or "dancing cows first of the month".
First of the Month Cows is a first of the month cows video maker for that new version. Pick Classic Cows, My Pet or Me + Cows, choose the month and get a 10-second vertical dancing cow video with an instrumental beat. No app, no prompt to write, ready to post on the 1st.

Why do cows dance on the first of the month?
Because of a meme. In the 1995 Bone Thugs-N-Harmony song "1st of tha Month", the 1st is the day the checks arrive and everybody wakes up happy. A fan edit put that song over dancing cartoon cows, and people started reposting it on the 1st of every month. Now the cows dance every month as a joke ritual, and in November 2026 TikTok creators began making realistic AI versions.
Why cows dance on the first of the monthWhat is the "Wake up, it's the first of the month" meme?
It is a recurring meme posted on the first day of every month: dancing cows plus the line "wake up, it’s the first of the month". It started as a fan edit of an animated film clip with the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony song, and every month it spikes again on TikTok, X and Instagram.
