Lyrics
Little James
We're all the same
Always seem to look to us
We weren't meant to be grown ups
Thank you for your smile
You make it all worth while to us
Live for your toys
Even though they make noise
Have you ever played with plasticine
Even tried a trampoline
Thank you for your smile
You make it all worthwhile to us
I'm singing this song
For you and your mom
And that's all
It wont be long
Before everyone is gone
Sailed out to sea
Your mom, you and me
You swam the oceans like a child
Life around us was so wild
Thank you for your smile
You make it all worth while to us
I'm singing this song
For you and your mom
And that's all
It wont be long
Before everyone is gone
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na

Notes
Little James is a song by Oasis from their fourth studio album, *Standing on the Shoulder of Giants* (2000). Written by Liam Gallagher, it is his first-ever written track to be featured on an Oasis album. The song is dedicated to Liam's stepson, James, and features simple, heartfelt lyrics that reflect on childhood innocence and family. With its gentle melody and personal lyrics, Little James provides a glimpse into a more tender side of Liam Gallagher, contrasting with the usual anthemic style of Oasis.
