[Chorus 2: 2-D & Popcaan]
All my life
I'm in the stakin' bar, I got debts, I'm a debaser
All my life
Saturn's about to make love and I'm just a heartbreaker
All my life
And I won't get a take in 'cause I'm out when I'm stakin'
And the rings I am breakin' are makin' you a personal day

[Bridge: 2-D & Popcaan]
With the holograms beside me, I'll dance alone tonight
In a mirrored world, are you beside me
All my life?
Distortion

[Chorus 2: 2-D & Popcaan]
All my life
I'm in the stakin' bar, I got debts, I'm a debaser
All my life
Saturnz about to make love and I'm just a heartbreaker
All my life
And I won't get a take in 'cause I'm out when I'm stakin'
And the rings I am breakin' are makin' you a personal day

Gorillaz is a virtual band created by Damon Albarn of Britpop band Blur and Jamie Hewlett, co-creator of the comic book Tank Girl. The band is composed of four animated band Stuart “2D” Pot (vocals, keyboard), Murdoc Niccals (bass), Noodle (lead guitar and occasional vocals), and Russel Hobbs (drums and percussion). Murdoc was based on Keith Richards from a photo by David Bailey and 2D was based on a friend of Damon and Jamie’s.

The project began as an experiment and commentary on popular media. It was inspired by Hewlett and Albarn binge watching MTV when the two were housemates in London. Hewlett

If you watch MTV for too long, it’s a bit like hell – there’s nothing of substance there. So we got this idea for a cartoon band, something that would be a comment on that.
