Momentary Bliss (feat. slowthai & Slaves)

Gorillaz Gorillaz

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Momentary bliss

We could do so much better than this
Mausoleum faces and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita

Lovely Rita, meter maid
Lovely Rita, meter maid

Your potential, you lacked credentials
And you were special, so fucking special (Rita)
Oh, how you need it, oh how your needing
And you keep squeezing the tube from the middle

You part the seas, but your arches, they ain't golden
And you was gangin' for some gags, so now you're rollin'
Bet you shut your trap and keep it hush (hush)
On another note, compliments make me blush

There's a hole in your pocket, so you cannot find the change
Cavern of your mind, you said your patterned
You pull your strings and you jump, hold your mouth and you say
What was scripted the day before it happened?

We all give applause when people open doors
But on the way out it did you back in
See, everything in life ain't silver and gold
But mining for metal gave you platinum

It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a Turkey Twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick

Posta boy
Posta girl (Rita)
In truth the bills (the bills)
Must be paid (yeah, yeah, alright)
Posta boy (yeah, alright)
Posta girl (ah, that's time)

In truth, the bills, they must be paid
And what is left is sodden cake typical
Oh, you need to change your face
You're getting sold, it's such a waste

Oh, we could do so much better than this
Swimming in pools of momentary bliss
Where you got to bite the bounty 'cause everybody taking it
Meanwhile you keep on adding
How big you gonna grow

It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a Turkey Twizzler, you deserve school dinners

It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a Turkey Twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick

We could do so much better than this
Mausoleum faces and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita

We could do so much better than this
Perfect little pictures of moments that we missed
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
