Round Are Way

Oasis · There And Then - DVD

The paper boy is working before he goes
Lying to the teacher he knows he knows
He didn't and he should've
Brought his lines in yesterday
Ernie bangs the sound and the day begins
The letterbox is open and your cash falls in
I'll meet you at the office
Just before the staff clock in

Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright
Round are way the birds sing for yer
The already know yer

The game is kicking off in around the park
It's twenty five a side and before it's dark
There's gonna be a loser
And you know the next goal wins
Cab it to the front as it's called a draw
Everybody's knockin at yours once more
Ernie bangs the sound
And no one's spoken since half past four

Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright
Round are way the birds are minging
Round are way it's alright
Round are way the birds sing for you
Cos the already know yer
They already know yer

Round Are Way

Recorded by Oasis for their 2002 documentary There And Then, "Round Are Way" captures the band's dynamic live energy and evolving sound during a pivotal era. The track features the signature guitar interplay between Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher, showcasing their ability to blend melodic hooks with raw, rhythmic intensity. While not part of a standard studio album, the recording serves as a vital document of the group's performance style and camaraderie. It reflects the post-Definitely Maybe period where Oasis continued to explore new sonic textures while maintaining their core identity as a defining voice of Britpop and alternative rock. The song remains a testament to their live prowess and the enduring appeal of their collaborative chemistry.
