[Intro]
(Cowboy Town)
(I need a small vacation)
(Hey ubba jibba huh-wah ee ah)
Good morning, it is 45 degrees at six o'clock, in the headlines a [?] arrests and more storm fronts
First, let's check out the traffic reports
Houston's only home
God bless Texas [?]
Fly pretty high

[Verse]
Oh, Texas, can you hear me?
Speed up on the dawn
To the pinks and blues of Houston
In the sun
Where home is a rust
In the parish of space dust
(Where the mountains die)
And today is golden

[Outro]
Arrested and charged with second-degree robbery
And by the way, he was also violating probation
Now, what's the difference between first degree and second-degree robbery?
Uh, a degree, [?] it's as close as I know, brother, I can't help you
Have a great time over there, thanks for listening

Gorillaz

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.
