Lyrics Opium - Gorillaz, EarthGang

Opium

White folks asking questions like «Um, who the fuck is them?
How they get in here?
And how they dress like that?»
Must be green thumbs, ain’t nobody in their right minds that dumb
Fresh, we be making all F’s
Telling bitches stop calling, mind they business 'till we follow up
Red cup, modeled up, can’t even imagine
But for tonight, you’se a star, right?
Right?
I know check and see who’s ass is the biggest
And make sure them hoes don’t step on your toes when you get in
Call the doctor up, tell them fill up my prescription
And yeah, we got the game in our hands like some children
By now, you looking at your mans like damn
Why you ain’t tell me that these niggas be spazzing
I be praying God, let these moments last
And we roll up that shit that got everybody laughing
Make sure my shoes sueded out
Then waste money in the hood
'Cause they niggas never gave it out
Pristine dreams and opium scenes
That’s why a nigga dressed this way
And even if I did design my own shit, I could put it on a billboard
And still have y’all bragging when you paid for it
Tailored for the world, I was made for it
And walk right out the sun, I got the shades for it
Uh, huh
Green herb, reverb hella far
You fellas are licking pussy and sniffing the scent
That I left up in it while sipping liquor from a jelly jar
El debarge oozing out my system
Listening to my feelings
Saturated with tones, reanimated the bones of a dead art
She said that I’m cute but she love me 'cause my head smart
I’ll headbutt her hard enough to get a red card, I’m wigging (Ooh)
Damn brother, you been castrated
By that cookie cutter slave master got control of ya
They throat cutting, just to get a hold of us
But we ain’t shaking hands until we see some hands
That can hold thunder
I got my own mustard
Twisting up the pretzel
Pinching the weed like a flower petal
She love me, she love me not, it’s whatever
I know I’m burning herbal like a turtle 'till I’m shrouded feathers
Yeah
Make sure my shoes sueded out
Then waste money in the hood
'Cause they niggas never gave it out
Pristine dreams and opium scenes
That’s why a nigga dressed this way
And even if I did design my own shit, I could put it on a billboard
And still have y’all bragging when you paid for it
Tailored for the world, I was made for it
And walk right out the sun, I got the shades for it
Mad max in the evening, it seems like
We been in meetings for the last five weekends
I’m just trying to make it to the end where they greet me
Niggas know your last name, everybody cheesing
Glad that your ass came, valet for the free skii
Nah, little bro for these see on me, please
This is nasty for LED’s
We be in another climate with all these trees
And the neighborhood watching, just like we thieves
I’m not best, but hey, we in suits from the tailor
Sit down and let the keynote adress ya
Pull out your homework, I show you where you messed up
Niggas walked in the room, all extra
Groupie bitches on alert, bet they heads turned
I know you haters can’t stand us
But damn, we got the answers
Go on and get them hands up
Make sure my shoes sueded out
Then waste money in the hood
'Cause they niggas never gave it out
Pristine dreams and opium scenes
That’s why a nigga dressed this way
And even if I did design my own shit, I could put it on a billboard
And still have y’all bragging when you paid for it
Tailored for the world, I was made for it
And walk right out the sun, I got the shades for it
Uh
You blokes can’t imagine why I’m spazzing
Fucking with the baddest hoes, groomed for the pageant
Visiting mom, she like she knew this would happen
Worried I ain’t eating, send me food in a basket
Ooh, god damn it, the game getting grown
Answering the phone like god damn, whatchu want man
If Venus ever died, I would stand on my own
But it’s rest in peace, on every piece of land that I own
Imitation is suicide
You can die off of following the footsteps
Of a pterodactyl off a cliff
Former slaves wreaking havoc on a ship
Supreme court bitches steady judging
Automatic plead the fifth
I don’t speak to 'em
Because they seem stupid
And honestly probably alluded by my music
I ain’t tripping
A terrifying nigga, hot as teriyaki chicken
Tearing up your living room whenever I visit
Nigga, listen
Make sure my shoes sueded out
Then waste money in the hood
'Cause they niggas never gave it out
Pristine dreams and opium scenes
That’s why a nigga dressed this way
And even if I did design my own shit, I could put it on a billboard
And still have y’all bragging when you paid for it
Tailored for the world, I was made for it
And walk right out the sun, I got the shades for it
