Liam Gallagher is back with new music, and he's employed a famous friend to help him out. Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl has taken a seat behind the drumkit on the new song "Everything's Electric" that he co-wrote with Gallagher for the Oasis singer's forthcoming solo set, C'Mon You Know.

The friendship between Gallagher and Grohl goes back years when Foo Fighters played with Oasis on tour as both acts were rising through the ranks. In recent years, Gallagher was also one of the featured performers on the Foo Fighters-curated Cal Jam festival in California. The track was also produced by another friend as The Bird and the Bee's Greg Kurstin lent his skills to bringing it altogether.

The new track opens with a propulsive Beastie Boys "Sabotage"-esque feel before settling into a guitar-and-drum-centric vibrant melody, also adding piano flourishes and slide guitar to the overall musical concoction. Get a closer look at the lyrics below and check out the lyric video for the song as well. "Everything's Electric" is available here.

Liam Gallagher, "Everything's Electric" Lyrics

The city is burning
Sinking ships in the ocean
With a head full of dreams at night
Sorrow's written the story of life
Ain't nothing to do, but
Hours digging for gold dust
I see the shame in your eyes this time
You know, baby, it's cold inside

Your fake humble called out, got you tongue tied
Your best chance at success, got ya denied
No, you thought I wouldn't know?

I don't hate you
But I despise that feeling
There's nothing left for me here
You won't know if you don't go
Superficial feelings
It's hard to take it easy
Underneath the red sun
Everything's electric

Tell me, what do you love?
And would you let it kill you?
With a head full of dreams at night
Sorrow's written the story of life
The higher we go
The longer that we can fly
I never knew what you wanted
So I gave you everything

Your life's shorter, most days are long now
Chain of missing links is all that's left now
No, you gotta let it go

I don't hate you
But I despise that feeling
There's nothing left for me here
You won't know if you don't go
Superficial feelings
It's hard to take it easy
Underneath the red sun
Everything's electric

I don't hate you
But I despise that feeling
There's nothing left for me here
You won't know if you don't go
Superficial feelings
It's hard to take it easy
Underneath the red sun
Everything's electric
