Artist: Gorillaz Album: Plastic Beach (2010) Title: White Flag
Lyrics White FlagLook, yo, no castaway, no survivor I ain't lost and this ain't shipwrecked I feel small in this big wide world And mummy ain't said 'Honey, I shrunk the kids' yet I ain't Jesus but I'm walkin' on water There's no bomb here, there's no war 'cause I can break out of jail with a lighter So is there any point in making laws, blud This ain't Atlantis, are you sure I nearly suffocated when I touched the shore No rain, condoms get poured and up the road You'll never guess who I saw
Uh, uh, uh, it's K-A Look, skip on a beat like Ali in the gym Honey I'm home this is where I wanna live Just found it like Nemo on the de-low I don't know if it's greener, but it's green though On the other side of the fence, bye to the ends. Look, no feds, no stress, no rent, no superficial shit, it's real folk Where the women look hot, but the beats cold And the speech goes like, "Hi little lady" Sex on a beach, wanna try for a baby Word in the village, I'm a little bit crazy Swagger on a hundred degrees, not eighty Look, if heaven had a VIP, uh, this is it: white sand, blue sea, But I don't know who they are and I'm damn sure they don't know me But I come in peace!
Cool, white flag, white flag No war, no guns, no poor Just life, just Love No hype, just fun. No ties, just me and my mic, just me and my wife. But tell me if I'm dreamin' 'cause I don't wanna wake up till the evenin' And I don't wanna be left sleepin' from all the diseases that I breathe in. Look, respect the island, no stealin' And don't bring religion here, no three kings. Integrated and we ain't leavin' We come on a peace thing White flag, white flag |
