Gorillaz Are Ten - Spotify Radio Show 3 (11)

Oh, I don't know, where was I?
It's a long story, this
Anyway, yeah, after I escaped Plastic Beach, I got into all kinds of trouble, you know
Most of which I just can't repeat here
I'm sure it'll all come out sooner or later
That's the way the world is now, isn't it?

You can't even throttle someone with your bare hands without it ending up in Facebook
Or whatever that thing's called
I got caught up in a duel in which I shot a man dead with a pistol
I lost the top part of my ear in the melee
Got trapped inside a glass bottle in an underwater cave
Fought a shark, which I learnt how to do in an underwater fighting school

So, I've kept myself busy really, and eventually, eventually, I wound up here in Hawaii
I think it's, wow, you know, gorgeous island, really
Just gorgeous
And he paid two grand for it
Fantastic weather, wonderful company, the girls, the drinks
It's everything that Plastic Beach shouldn't be

I'm happy now! Really happy
These are the rewards of a life lived at the top
The high octane white knuckle rider gorillas has taken a pause
While in my dotage I get time to reflect on my glorious career
And plan my future mistakes

So, are we closing the book on Gorillaz?
I wouldn't close the book on anything
And in essence, you know, for me, it's just music making, whatever it is
I don't happen to be doing that at the moment
What's happening whenever it's happening is what I'm into
So, simply, I'm not closing the book on it
I'm putting a bookmark in the book
I've put the book down, and I'm probably reading another one at the moment
I think this one's called Razzle, Issue 257

Looking to the future, I don't have many ambitions left, but, you know
I'd really like to do something with someone like, say
Outkast, and an up-in idea, or at least some of the members of their team
That'll be fun, don't you think, eh, listeners?
