Gorillaz Are Ten - Spotify Radio Show 3 (12) Songtext
von Gorillaz

So that was it, freedom
I remember burning down our old studio at one point, Kong Studios
I needed a big stack of cash
And that seemed like the fastest way of getting me hands on it
I just torched the place and cashed in on the insurance big time

I remember the date I did it too, 25th of July 2008
That was the date of Jamie Hewlett′s and Damon Orrbarn's monkey king opera
At the Royal Opera House, I remember it well
After I burnt the place down, I then went to their opera
And used the whole genre as like an alibi


I kicked the backs off seats and shouted really loudly
To make sure everyone saw me in full flow
I blamed the fire on some local kids
And they got banged up actually
I used the money to set up somewhere brand-new
Somewhere really amazing

And then started what would become the most amazing part of my-, of Gorilla′s career
Plastic Beach
The ultimate Gorillaz's album
Even now, that sends a shiver down my spine
But before I go into all that, here's a quick word from our sponsor
