Gorillaz - Fire Coming out of the Monkey's Head(2005)

[00:02.89] Once upon a time at the foot of a great mountain
[00:05.72] There was a town where the people known as Happyfolk lived
[00:09.59] Their very existence a mystery to the rest of the world
[00:13.68] Obscured as it was by great clouds
[00:17.16] Here they played out their peaceful lives
[00:19.84] Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
[00:22.63] That was growing in the world below
[00:25.24] To live in harmony with
[00:26.57] The spirit of the mountain called Monkey was enough
[00:28.95] Then one day Strangefolk arrived in the town
[00:33.80] they came in camouflaged
[00:35.78] Hidden behind dark glasses and no one noticed them
[00:38.73] They only saw shadows
[00:40.77] You see without the truth of the eyes
[00:43.80] The Happyfolk were blind
[00:46.97] Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out in holes
[00:52.48] Waiting for the sunset to come people going home
[00:57.31] Jump out from behind them and shoot them in the head
[01:02.07] Now everybody dancing
[01:04.30] The dance of the dead
[01:06.75] The dance of the dead
[01:09.34] The dance of the dead
[01:24.05] In time Strangefolk found their way
[01:27.07] Into the higher reaches of the mountain
[01:29.27] And it was there that they found the caves
[01:31.44] Of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
[01:34.67] By chance they stumbled upon
[01:37.47] The place where all good souls come to rest
[01:40.58] The Strangefolk they coveted
[01:43.23] The jewels in these caves above all things
[01:45.73] And soon they began to mine the mountain
[01:49.08] It's rich seam fueling the chaos of their own world
[01:53.16] Meanwhile down in the town
[01:57.32] The Happyfolk slept restlessly their dreams Invaded by shadowy figures
[02:02.07] Digging away at their souls
[02:03.62] Every day people would wake and stare at the mountain
[02:08.37] Why was it bringing darkness into their lives?
[02:11.50] And as the Strangefolk mined deeper and deeper into the mountain
[02:15.97] Holes began to appear
[02:17.44] Bringing with them a cold and bitter wind
[02:20.36] That chilled the very soul of the Monkey
[02:22.56] For the first time the Happyfolk felt fearful for
[02:25.51] They knew that soon the Monkey would stir from it's deep sleep
[02:29.69] Then there came a sound
[02:32.13] Distant first it grew into castrophany
[02:35.72] So immense that it could be heard far away in space
[02:39.68] There were no screams there was no time
[02:44.12] The mountain called Monkey had spoken
[02:47.33] There was only fire
[02:49.74] And then nothing
[02:52.93] Oh a little town in the USA
[02:55.99] The time has come to see
[02:58.39] There's nothing you believe you are
[03:03.09] But where were you when it all came down on me?
[03:09.26] Did you call me? no
[03:14.86]
