Lyrics
What was that sound ringing around your brain?
Today was just a blur, you gotta head like a ghost train
What was that sound ringing around your brain?
You're here on your own who you gonna find to blame?
You're the outcast – you're the underclass
But you don't care – because you're living fast
You're the un-invited guest who stays 'till the end
I know you've got a problem that the devil sends
You think they're talking 'bout you but you don't know who
I'll be scraping your life from the soul of my shoe tonight.
Bring it on down. Bring it down for me
Your head's in a fish tank
Your body and your mind can't breath
You're the outcast – you're the underclass
But you don't care – because you're living fast
You're the un-invited guest who stays 'till the end
I know you've got a problem that the devil sends
You think they're talking 'bout you but you don't know who
I'll be scraping your life from the soul of my shoe tonight.

Notes
Bring it on Down written but Noel Gallagher released on August 29th 1994, as the 7th Track on their debut album. The Track was produced by Owen Morris with recording taking place at Sawmill Studios in Cornwall, although the earliest recording was on the Live Demonstration. Musically its one the albums faster, mire punk influenced tracks drawing comparisons to the Stooges and MC5 with a raw energy, driving rhythm, and a notable guitar solo that drops in the middle.
Originally considered for the bands debut single it was ultimately replaced by Supersonic, and never released as as single itself. It counters the downbeat vibe of grunge, encouraging confidence amid chaos.
