Noel Gallagher sings this tune, which started as he misread “magpie” in a rhyming dictionary.

The jazzy bit at the end is played on a Mellotron, which was made for the The Beatles' Abbey Road sessions.

Magic Pie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
An extraordinary guy
Can never have an ordinary day
He might live the long goodbye
But that is not for me to say
I dig his friends, I dig his shoes
He is just a child with nothing to lose
But his mind, his mind

[Verse 2]
They are sleeping while they dream
And then they wanna be adored
They who don't say what they mean
Will live and die by their own sword
I dig their friends, I dig their shoes
They are like a child with nothing to lose
In their minds, yeah, their minds

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'll have my way
In my own time
I'll have my say
My star will shine

[Chorus]
'Cause you see me, I got my magic pie
Think of me, yeah, that was me, I was that passerby
I've been and now I've gone

[Verse 3]
There are but a thousand days
Preparing for a thousand years
Many minds to educate
The people who have disappeared
D'you dig my friends? D'you dig my shoes?
I am like a child with nothing to lose
In my mind, yeah, my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
We'll have our way
In our own time
We'll have our say
'Cause my star's gon' shine

[Chorus]
'Cause you see me, I got my magic pie
Think of me, yeah, that was me, I was that passerby
I've been and now I've gone

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yea-ah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
You see me, I got my magic pie
Think of me, yeah, that was me, I was that passerby (passerby)
Think of me, I got my magic pie
Think of me, yeah, that was me, I was that passerby
I've been and now I've gone

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yea-ah

[Outro]
Shut up!
Ah, okay

Noel Gallagher to Q Magazine,

I sang this one. Of course, me and Liam had a row about it. ‘Why can’t I sing that?’ ‘OK, I’ll do Fade In/Out then.’ ‘No, you won’t.’ But it’s his favourite track now. The first line, ‘An extraordinary guy/Can never have an ordinary day’, comes from him asking me, ‘How...
