The Masterplan

Oasis · There And Then - DVD

Take the time to make some sense
of what you want to say
and cast your words away upon the waves

and sail them home with acquiesce
on a ship of hope today
and as they land upon the shore
tell them not to fear no more
say it loud, and sing it proud today

and then dance if you wanna dance
please brother take a chance
you know they're gonna go
which way they wanna go
all we know is that we don't
know how it's gonna be
please brother let it be
life on the other hand
won't make us understand
we're all part of the masterplan

say it loud and sing it proud today

i'm not saying right is wrong
it's up to us to make
the best of all the things
that come our way

'cos everything that's been has passed
the answer's in the looking glass
there's four and twenty million doors
On life's endless corridor
say it loud and sing it proud today

we'll dance if they wanna dance
please brother take a chance
you know they're gonna go
which way they wanna go
all we know is that we don't
know how it's gonna be
please brother let it be
life on the other hand
won't make you understand
we're all part of the masterplan

ooooooohhhhh
ooooooohhhhh

The Masterplan - Oasis

Released on the 2002 documentary 'There And Then', 'The Masterplan' stands as a pivotal track in Oasis's career, marking their transition from the raw energy of their early albums to a more polished, radio-friendly sound. Featuring the iconic 'Hey! Hey! Hey!' hook, the song exemplifies the band's signature blend of Britpop swagger and melodic pop sensibilities. While not part of their standard studio discography, its inclusion on the film soundtrack highlights the band's enduring cultural impact and their ability to craft anthems that resonated with a generation. The recording captures the collaborative spirit of the era, showcasing Noel Gallagher's songwriting prowess and the band's commitment to creating music that defined the late 1990s and early 2000s landscape.
