Calamity: The Gorillaz Parody

[Kobold King]

A song I wrote in the throes of post-Calamity mind break syndrome. Major spoilers abound.

 

A parody of the Gorillaz song "Clint Eastwood," because rapping is Calamity's secret vice. (Original music contains explicit lyrics.)

 

 

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

This curse just keeps going on

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

This curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

And going on...

 

 

Yes...

Finally, someone let you out of your cage

Unchained to bring destruction and to shout out your rage

I just freed from within

All your natural sins

How they've clattered in din

But they're always what wins

Regrettable

Perhaps you didn't see so I command you to

From my point of view

I'm just making your wills tangible.

Live and learn

Hope and spurn

As you raze and burn

Toss and turn

'Cause these lessons had to be this stern.

Now you lie and claim that hope's for what you yearn

As if you could discern

You think I'm corrupting you?

Nudging you? Maybe.

Cyclical

The power that's bestowed on you just proves that you're all crazy

Mindless

You squawk and fuss and gawk at every sunrise

Sightless

'Cause it's clear no truth could push into your eyes

You like this?

You're just beasts that think they're righteous

But you're all just spineless

Removed from all brightness

 

 

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

This curse just keeps going on

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

This curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

And going on...

 

 

The essence of justice

Relies on some substance

You lack in your numbness

Children in your roughness

Epics

You think they're far removed, that's a fallacy

You're in them!

Every steel city

Every flooded sea

Every murder spree

I see them with my eyes!

All this destruction and demise!

Corruption undisguised!

While you claim that some are wise

And you hit me with your lies

Claim that if I'd just left you be some heroes would arise.

But fear won't depart.

"Calamity's" the name you give for what's in your heart

And it tears you apart.

That's you, not me

So I'll just stick around and be the watcher

Throw out some gifts to drown out what you think is solace

I brought all this

To show you can't survive when you're so far from flawless

Meantime all your nightmares might just hightlight your dread

Till doomsday just remember that they came from your head.

 

 

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

This curse just keeps going on

I ain't happy, but feeling glad

I've got limelight in my hands

I've fought this for oh so long

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just keeps going on

And going on

And going on

My curse just...

Yup. This is good.
