Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Gorillaz and the Boss Dogg
Planet of the apes
[Verse 2]
The revolution will be televised
And the pollution from the ocean
Now with devotion
Push peace and keep in the motion
Kids, gather 'round, yeah, I need you focus
I know it seems like the world is so hopeless
It's like Wonderland
[Verse 3]
Now fascinate me
Picture and animate me
'Cause I'm rollin', deep holein'
Click clacking, crack-a-lacking
Full packing, mo-stacking
Acting the fool when I teach
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach, yeah
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach
[Verse 4]
Mirror mirror on the wall, Boss Dogg give it to 'em, get involved
Turn it up, speed it up
Slow it down, underground where the under us undercut
Shipped up, shipped out, swimmin' with the sharks
Pull my gills up, turn the wheels up real tough
Drinkin' lemonade in the shade
Getting blazed with a gang of pilgrims
Yeah, just like that belly floppin', lockin' while I'm rockin'
In the bubble bath
And I'm just like math, Fozo's added up that get you more cash
So quick, so fast, all the kids say they love it when I make 'em laugh
[Verse 5]
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach, yeah
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach, yeah
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach
Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach
