“Stay Young” was released as a B-side to “D'You Know What I Mean?”
Noel Gallagher expressed some contempt for the song. Despite that, in 1998 it was included on the B-side compilation album The Masterplan at Liam Gallagher’s request, as Noel told NME,

[Verse 1]
One way out is all you're ever going to get
From those who'll hand them out don't never let it upset you
'Cause they'll put words into your mouths they're making you feel so ashamed
[Pre-Chorus]
Making you taking the blame
Making you cold in the night
Making you question your heart and your soul
And I think that it's not quite right
[Chorus]
Hey, stay young and invincible
'Cause we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
'Cause we know just what we are
Yeah, we know just what we are
Yeah, we know just what we are
[Verse 2]
Feed your head with all the things you need when you're hungry
Stay in bed and sleep all day as long as it's Sunday
'Cause they'll put words into my mouth they're making me feel so ashamed
[Pre-Chorus]
Making me taking the blame
They're making me cold in the night
They're making me question my heart and my soul
Anything that's not quite right
[Chorus 1]
Hey, stay young and invincible
'Cause we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
'Cause we know just what we are
Yeah, we know just what we are
Yeah, we know just what we are
(C'mon!)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Hey, stay young and invincible
'Cause we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
'Cause we know just what we are
Hey, stay young and invincible
'Cause we know just what we are
And come what may my faith's unshakable
'Cause we know just what we are
[Outro]
'Cause we know just what we are
'Cause we know just what we are
'Cause we know just what we are
'Cause we know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
Stay Young was written by Noel Gallagher.
Stay Young was produced by Owen Morris & Noel Gallagher.
Oasis released Stay Young on Mon Jul 07 1997.
Noel Gallagher expressed some contempt for the song,
I don’t like it. I wrote it by mistake for the last album. Why it didn’t go on the album is because when I got back to England I wrote “Magic Pie”. Sounds like The Kinks as well I think. I don’t like the guitar solo on it. I don’t like the sound...
