  • I know you think you deserve an explanation on the meanings of life
    But what you think that you heard slipped away out the back of your mind
    You'll get your mucky fingers burned
    You get your truth from the lies you were learned
    And all your plastic believers will leave us and they won't return
    Oh God

    And when you look in that mirror
    And you're tying up your buttons and bows
    And as you face your disease
    You can squeeze into the Emporer's Clothes
    You found your god in a paper bag
    You get your history from the Union Jack
    And all your brothers and sisters are gone
    And they won't come back

    I'm fed up with life in the City
    'Cause all the phoneys have blown my mind
    When I'm gone, yeah, you look like you'd miss me
    So come along with me, but don't ask why
    'Cause it's all mine
    It's all mine
    It's all mine
    It's all mine

    'Cause it's all mine
    It's all mine
    It's all mine
    It's all mine Writer/s: Noel Gallagher

  • Brendan from York, Englanddont you mean Vice by razorlight sounds like this.
  • Chris from Belfast, IrelandThis sounds very similar to 'Vice' by Razorlight.
  • Claire from Manchester"Mucky Fingers" doesn't sound like an Oasis song it sounds like Chaz and Dave!!! But i think it's a great song anyway as it's really different from their usual sound.
