If this be the end, then so shall it be

"A commentary on a politically-charged, historical moment" :

C'est ainsi que Gorillaz introduit ce nouveau morceau, publié le jour de l'investiture d'un président, il faut le dire, hautement inquiétant. Au chant, un Benjamin Clementine très convainquant.

Here is our tree

That primitively grows

And when you go to bed

Scarecrows from the far east

Come to eat

Its tender fruits

And I thought the best way to perfect our tree

Is by building walls

Walls like unicorns

In full glory

And galore

And even stronger

Than the walls of Jericho

But glad then my friend

Out in the field we shall reap a better day

What we have always dreamt of having

Are now for the starving

It is love, that is the root of all evil

But not our tree

And thank you my friend

For trusting me

Hallelujah

(Hallelujah)

Hallelujah money

(Past the chemtrails)

Hallelujah money

(Hallelujah money)

Hallelujah money

(Hallelujah money)

How will we know

When the morning comes

We are still human ?

How will we know?

How will we dream?

How will we love?

How will we know?

Don't worry, my friend

If this be the end, then so shall it be

Until we say so, nothing will move

Ah, don't worry

It's not against our morals

It's legal tender

Touch, my friend

While the whole world

And whole beasts of nations desire

Power

How will we know

When the morning comes

We are still human ?

How will we know?

How will we dream?

How will we love?

How will we know?

Hallelujah

(Hallelujah)

Hallelujah money

(Past the chemtrails)

Hallelujah money

(Hallelujah money)

Hallelujah money

(Hallelujah money)

Hallelujah money!
