“White Flag” Gorillaz Lyrics

[Bashy:]
Hey, look, yo!
No castaway, no survivor
I ain’t lost and this ain’t shipwrecked
I feel small in this big wide world
And mommy ain’t said ‘Honey, I shrunk the kids’ yet.
I ain’t Jesus, but I’m walkin’ on water.
There’s no bombs here, there’s no war
‘Cause I can break out of jail with a lighter,
So is there any point in makin’ laws blood?
This ain’t Atlantis, are you sure?
I nearly suffocated when I touched the shore
No rain, condoms it poured
And up the road, you’d never guess who I saw

[Kano (Bashy):]
Uh, uh, uh, it’s K-A
Look: skip on the beat like Ali in the gym (yeah)
Honey, I’m home this is where I wanna live (yeah)
Just found it like Nemo
On the D-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,
This real flow.
Where the women look hot, but the beach cold,
And the speech goes like, “Hi, little lady.”
Sex on the beach, wanna try for a baby.
Word in the village, I’m a little bit crazy.
Swag up on a hundred degrees, no A/C.
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!

[Bashy (Kano):]
Cool! White flag! White flag!
(Aha, no war!)
No guns (No corps!)
Just life.
(Just love) no hype.
(Just fun) no ties.
(Just me and my mind)
Just me and my wife.
(But tell me if I’m dreamin’
‘Cause I don’t wanna wake up ’til 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.
(Integrate and then we ain’t leavin’
We come on a peace. Sing!)
White flag?
(White flag!)

Lyrical Diary: “White Flag” Gorillaz Lyrics

The Gorillaz album “Plastic Beach” departs from the band’s usual sound. The album features guest appearances, including De La Soul, David Bowie, Pusha T, and Mavis Staples. The album lyrics are often political and reflect the band’s growing interest in world issues.

One of the more political songs on the album is “White Flag.” The song speaks to the idea of surrendering to an oppressive regime. The lyrics describe a society where people have become complacent and accept their fate. The song calls for people to rise and challenge the government.

Lyrical Diary-

Enjoy reading lyrics and trying to do them more than just lyrics, trying to have some more me. I enjoy doing this because it allows me to express myself in a unique way that not everyone can do. It also gives me a chance to learn new things, which I appreciate.

Lyrics are a way to communicate emotions, and they can be used to entertain or provoke an emotional response in the listener. Therefore, lyricists need to use complex academic jargon to evoke a strong emotional response. They can create a connection with their listener and hopefully evoke a feeling of enjoyment or pleasure.
