Cracker Island
On Cracker Island it was born
To the collective of the dawn
They were planting seeds at night
To grow a made up paradise
Where the truth was auto tuned (forever cult)
But it’s sadness I consumed (forever cult)
Into my formats everyday (forever cult)
in end I had to pay (what world is this)
In the end I had to pay (I purged my soul)
In the end I had to pay (I drank to riot)
Nothing more to say (I drank to riot)
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know it’s many strategies x 2
Fantasies
What world is this? x2
On Cracker Island it was raised
By the collective from the grave
It only came out at night
It ate up their paradise (paradise)
Where the truth was auto tuned (forever cult)
And it’s sadness I consumed (forever cult)
Into my formats everyday (forever cult)
In the end I had to pay (what world is this)
Out there on my silverlake (I was not there)
In the end it will be great (beneath the hills)
I’m like a ship between the tides (I saw myself)
I held on I survived (there in the void)
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know it’s many strategies x2
Fantasy
On Cracker Island It will die (forever cult)
Join the collective in the sky (forever cult)
And on a shining boat of light (forever cult)
Go up to paradise (what world is this)
Where the truth is autotuned (I purged my soul)
And it’s sadness I consume (I drank to riot)
Into my formats everyday (I drank to riot)
In the end I had to pay (forever cult)
In the end I’ll have to pay (forever cult)
In the end I’ll be ok (forever cult)
Nothing more to say x3

I love this song, I never looked up the lyrics but just kept singing it. I'm so disappointed in myself cause I kept singing, "they taught themselves to be a COW" cause it stuck in my head and now I still can't unhear what I sang even now knowing the lyric is "occult" Edit and update: I went to the Gorillaz concert at the Chase Center in SF and got to hear him sing it live, and I still heard "A Cow!" Edit edit: knowing now that their lyric videos aren't always correct, It can be "A Cow!" if I dream it! \(^-^)/

The absolute best. And the next new song sounds dope! If you don’t know what I am talking about, then let me break it down for you. In the new episode of the Stuart Potcast (the official podcast by 2-D himself) he is in the studio recording the new song. in the beginning of the episode it sounds a bit muffled because 2-D is recording the “podcast” but when entering the recording room 2-D forgets to close the door and we hear a part of an unreleased song (presumably silent running or new gold)
@knightofcydonia1192 Жыл бұрын
The song is about people who have ridiculous and dangerous ideas (Damon called out specifically the far right of US politics and Russia) creating an "island", i.e. an echo chamber, where they isolate themselves from other ideas and amplify their own until they're even more dangerous.
