The God of Lying Lyrics – Gorillaz

[Intro]
…the human and being in it cause the being knows the unknown, the spiritual, the alien

[Intro: Joe Talbot]
Who am I?

[Verse 1: Joe Talbot]
Are you happy with your housing? Are you climbing up the walls?
Are you deafened by the headlines or does your head not hear at all?
Are you pacified by passion? Are you armed to the teeth?
Are you bubbling at the surface of what’s cooking underneath?
Are you dying for an answer for what they call good grief?

But there’s a terrific chance there’s nothing, beyond what you believe

[Chorus: 2-D]
Oh don’t you say
That you think that I’m the glory
Oh don’t you say
That you think I’m going to get no glory

[Post-Chorus: 2-D]
Running to the exit with a huge grin on my face
Screaming hope is behind
And I wanna get high

[Bridge: 2-D & Joe Talbot]
I went to the liquor store
And they took all my money
I stared into the mirror there
And begged that man to love me

[Verse 2: Joe Talbot]
Do you love your blessed father?
Anoint by fear of death?
Do you feel the lies creep on by? As soft as baby’s breath
Do you beg that truth will set you free?
Are you shackled by the keys?

Well if I was you, I’d stay strapped in
Cause all you got is me

[Chorus: 2-D]
Oh don’t you say
That you think that I’m the glory
Oh don’t you say
That you think I’m going to get no glory

[Post-Chorus: 2-D & Joe Talbot]
Running to the exit with a huge grin on my face
Screaming hope is behind
And I wanna get high
