Lyrics Cracker Island – Gorillaz feat. Thundercat
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
And it’s sadness I consumed
Into my formats everyday
In the end I had to pay
In the end I had to pay
In the end I had to pay
I’ve got nothing more to say
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know its many strategies
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know its many strategies
What world is this
What world is this
On Cracker Island it was raised
By the collective from the grave
It only came out at night
It ate up their paradise
Where the truth was auto-tuned
And it’s sadness I consumed
Into my formats everyday
In the end I had to pay
Out there on the silver lake
I was tired, it was great
I’m like a ship between the tide
I held on to my surprise
They thought themselves to be occult
They didn’t know its many strategies
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know its many strategies
On Cracker Island it will die
Join the collective in the sky
And on the shining bolt of light
Go out to paradise
Where the truth is auto-tuned
And it’s sadness I consume
Into my formats everyday
In the end I had to pay
In the end I had to pay
In the end it will be great
There’s nothing more to say
There’s nothing more to say, now
There’s nothing more to say
There’s nothing more to say…
