Funky Days! is the fourth domestic single by the Japanese hip-hop group Lead, released on July 30, 2003. It followed their debut album Life on da Beat and began their Brand New Era (2004). The single reached No. 10 on the Oricon charts and stayed on the charts for five weeks.

The standard CD came with three bonuses: one of five trading cards, a URL to download a Lead wallpaper or screensaver, and a Lead 2003 Summer Campaign postcard.

The single includes the title track "Funky Days!" plus its instrumental version, and the B-side "All My Life ~Manatsu no Umi Monogata~." There is also a 2003 remix of "Manatsu no Magic" by AKIRA (from PALM DRIVE).

The music video released with the single was later included in Lead Movies 1 (September 2003).
