Clint Eastwood Lyrics - Gorillaz



Review The Song (120)





I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on

Yeah... Ha Ha!
Finally someone let me out of my cage
Now, time for me is nothing cos I'm countin' no age
Now I couldn't be there
Now you shouldn't be scared
I'm good at repairs
And I'm under each snare
Intangible
Bet you didn't think so I command you to
Panoramic view
Look I'll make it all manageable
Pick and choose
Sit and lose
All you different crews
Chicks and dudes
Who you think is really kickin' tunes?
Picture you gettin' down in a picture tube
Like you lit the fuse
You think it's fictional
Mystical? Maybe
Spiritual hero who appears in you to clear your view
when you're too crazy
Lifeless
to those the definition for what life is
Priceless
for you because I put you on the hype shit
You like it?
Gunsmoke
You're righteous with one toke
You're psychic among those
Possess you with one go

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless,but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on

The essence, the basics
Without it you make it
Allow me to make this
childlike in nature
Rhythm:
You have it or you don't-- that's a fallacy!
I'm in them:
Every sproutin' tree
Every child of peace
Every cloud at sea
You see with your eyes
and see destruction and demise
Corruption in disguise
From this fuckin' enterprise
Now I'm sucked into your lies
Through Russel, not his muscles but the percussion he provides
with me as a guide
y'all can see me now cos you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind
That's the inner
So I'mma stick around with Russ and be your mentor
Bust a few rhymes so motherfuckers remember
what the thought is
I brought all this
So you can survive when law is lawless
Feelings, sensations that you thought wuz dead
No squealing, remember
(that it's all in your head)

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future

Baddies | Reviewer: Drugxsirus | 5/11/13

Really. You all need to read the lyrics. The song is obviously about making music. Their singing about busting rhymes and other ppl singing to it as if they created it. If you guys don't understand this. Then re-read the lyrics. Not hard to interpret if your not a retard.

The Real Meaning | Reviewer: Sean Marsh | 3/2/13

I've been into Gorillaz since 2005 and know everything about them. It got the name Clint Eastwood because of the melodica line that sounds like the theme from The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly. 2D from the Gorillaz said in the 2010 iTunes interview that the sunshine in a bag was actually his gym clothes. The sunshine in a bad is also a reference to Clint Eastwood leaving with a bag of money at the end of the The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. So Gorillaz are just a whole world of fun and they don't have to have a meaning to everything. The only adult the cartoons do is smoke cigarettes, 2D sometimes drinks, Murdoc drinks tequila, rum or beer and they swear a little bit, but that's it nothing illegal. So if you want to know everything, read Rise Of The Ogre and watch Bananaz. They are the best damn band in the world!

It is one word guys seriously. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/1/13

People do realize that "I ain't happy" Is a Clint Eastwood quote right? I mean it is why the song is titled "Clint Eastwood." I mean yeah it has the word "toke" in the song but it also has the word "corruption" but yet no one is saying the Gorillaz were making a statement about the government. Quit focusing on one single word and look at the song as a whole...

. | Reviewer: D | 8/2/12

To the ones that say that the song is about drugs,

Are there any other direct relations to drugs, besides of
"You're righteous with one toke"
?
(and not interpretations like "I ain't happy", sunshine, useless, ...)

If not, then just one line, and not the whole song, is about drugs.

Member vs Member | Reviewer: Myra | 4/5/12

This song is infact NOT about drugs. It's about life, corruption. There's only one verse which relates to drugs and that's the one where it says something about hype

& quite honestly it's pointless to argue its obviously going to be a never ending battle, we all interpret things differently

Interesting | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/8/12

I usually don't say this and even get angered at people implying that every song they here is about drugs . . But I honestly think this song is if not at least partially about it.

Some people look too much into things though.

Laughing | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/20/12

I like the guy who titled his response "DO ANY OF YOU KNOW ANY VOCABULARY" because obviously your vocabulary is one to gloat about. What is more comical though is that your whole basis for discounting everyone else's interpretation is the definition and presence of one word.

If you knew anything about the Gorillaz then you would know that none of their songs can be encompassed with the simple interpretation of "about someone who I doing drugs." Every album, song, and video of the Gorillaz build up into an overarching story line that follows the life of the band. If it was only about drugs then every video would show them just sitting around getting high.

DO ANY OF YOU KNOW ANY VOCABULARY | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/13/12

This song is OBVIOUSLY about someone who I doing drugs. They practIcally even say it.
"your righteous with one toke"
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE FUCK A TOKE IS?
I not, here you go:
Toke: The drawing Of a puff from a cigarette or pipe, typically one containing marajuana

I realy think its a message | Reviewer: Akira | 11/16/11

For me, its seem to be a message about the world now. Not just the musical company, but about how the whole world is being controled.
The idea is that everyone is being, of some way, influenced by the guys in control. The media, the governament, the industry, the big ones. They choose what we have to think, what we want, and we live like we dont see. And we cant do nothing about because we are 'fine' (glad?) the way it is.
I could put a meaning to each world in the music, but would take too long and no one would read it,
so... keep just the idea!

ZZZ | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/14/11

The meaning of song could be anything, its stupid to argue. Point is that you can take a stone from ground and say 1000 different stories about its existence,same thing here but a little complex, enjoyyy

I agree with the abstract lyrics thing previously said | Reviewer: whatthemeh | 9/6/11

The singing vocals seem to be from the viewpoint of a blind audience, and the rapped bit seems to be an 'incarnation' of the music industry- non sensical lyrics put to an addictive beat, how this can be solved. The iroony of course is that if you look past the incessent (and effective) rhyming and assonance of the rap, it seems to be talking about some abstract 'intangible' power- and power that eminates through all thing (every tree, child etc) and can be condensed into simplistic, addictive and ultimately lucrative music (fuckin enterprise). So I think this song is a piss take of the music industry, or a criticism of it, and the artists knew it would be a sucess, for several reasons- it's super-group status, it's use of cartoons (aesthetic appeal) and because while apearing new, in a way it is still the same old that we'll always be fooled by, that same appearance of differentiation we see in art these days (it's all in your head...)

Meaning | Reviewer: Raze | 8/11/11

Murdoc, being the inspired writer he is, is slowly creating a whole story behind EVERY album!! its like a MASSIVE ARG, this isn't about the devil, it isn't an illuminati trick and sung in 'Witch Language' in the story Russ has some trouble with demons in thr stereo's isn't itobvious one possesed him and that is that?? no hidden message or illuminati tricks??

I think it's obvious... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/24/11

Come on I'm pretty sure it's about drugs! I ain't happy that's why he's taking them, I'm feeling glad- that's the drugs talking, and I got sunshine in a bag? Do I really have to explain that last one? also I think they're saying that drugs mess with you and people are being idiots to see it. You don't see with tour eyes you just perceive with your mind- actually I think that's hallucinations. I put you on the HYPE SHIT I think you can figure that out... I'm not sure what it's about but it makes sense to be drugs that's what I always thought. Regardless gorillaz have alwYs had meanings to their songs so it must be something.

holy fuck | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/11/11

danny boys comment made me laugh so hard. Im not saying im right but ur so fucking off. Holy shittt hahaha " A company trying to take over the world" "ur not happy because ur friends died, but ur glad cuz u survived"???? hahahhah holy fuck.... i thought it was about drugs which is really cliche of me to say but i dont care. ive always thought it was about drugs. Sunshine in a bag (DrUgZzZ) useless but not for long the futureee (Gonna take them DruGZzZz) then he takes the drugs and Del is his "Guide" while hes trippin. Idk thats wat i always thot it was... it makes sense... and i like druggzzZzz

Learn the Del | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/21/11

every post that i've read on the subject of the meaning of clint eastwood seems to come from people that don't know who del the funky homosapien is. you guys don't seem to understand his vibes and the message that he tends to put in his verses. You guys should really listen to albums like both sides of the brain or deltron 3030 before you start analyzing del's lyrics.
