Gorillaz Are Ten - Spotify Radio Show 3 (9)

So, that was it!
The Gorillaz live band hijacked my stage last year on their Plastic Beach World Tour
And that's probably when things started to go wrong inside my head
As I, Murdoch Nichols, was forced to endure
A torturous tour locked in the dressing room night after night
I got back off tour around Christmas
And by the time we returned to Plastic Beach, the place was chaos
A fully blown warzone

My island in ruins
My HQ and Recording Studio bombed to smithereens
So, as per my usual tricks, I just got the hell out of there
Using espionage and ingenuity and rum
With the island under attack
2D was still down in the underwater glass-bottomed room that he'd lived in on the island
I thought it was the best way to keep him
There
'Cause he had a crippling fear of whales
Cetaphobia, it's called, nice

Anyway, the last thing I saw of him was-
Well, last I heard is that whale I'd hired to patrol the island underwater
That whale took a sodding great lump out the side of the island
Swallowing 2D hole in half his room in the process
Russell beat the whale up, grabbed him by his whale tail
And literally chucked him halfway across the ocean
That was it, gone
Gone in 60 seconds
No more 2D, woosh!

So, anyway, with all this blood and fire and bullets and bombs raining down on me
And the boogeyman coming for my soul, you know, it's heavy
Too heavy
So, I made it look like I'd offed myself in the bunker
And just got the hell out of there
Then I just packed up my plastic bags and freshers and rode away under the silvery moon
The waves gently lapping inside of the boat

And for weeks I rode, ate, read, drink
It was actually very calm, really
Well until the storm hit, my boat got whisked up in a typhoon
I was thrown thousands of miles
Then the storm broke
Next thing, I hit dry land with a bump

Actually, you know what?
I've got to go for a tinkle now
Listen, have a little break, and then I'll come back to all about this in a minute
Here's Little Dragon who toured with us all last year with a song about a little man
