The Swagga Lyrics
I wanna be your teacher in the team
Get to come in naked , cause it's clean
I wanna be your make-up, with the seam
Just take a shaker, make it mean
I won't get over the dam
Cause it's just like that old mile
Every four o' clock in the morning
I think I'm gonna die
Check I'll hold you
I wish it was you
Gotta get a cat up a CK
Cause that's where we're at
Gotta give a car the beetles
Cause they're just sad
But I won't get over it now
Cause it's half-drawn on the shout
It could be four o' clock in the morning
If you wish it'd got no style
I gotta shit out like I was never
On the fallest town to be
I could wish this way forever
But I ever gonna be clean
No, I can't get shot
Albeit, no!
I can't get shot
Albeit, no!
I can't get shot!
Wooh!
Wanna grow to keep it in June
Gonna make it easy for you
Wanna be the carever in the coal
Just get this on with
Everything the kids enjoy
But I won't get over it soon
Cause there ain't light at full noon
Cause at four o' clock in the morning
I got cheering up to do
If not, you get a real shot
It's just like walls I never drived
But I go: "Wooh!"
I just go: "Wooh!"
We all go: "Wooh!"
Yeah!
We all go: "Wooh!"
All right!
Get to come in naked , cause it's clean
I wanna be your make-up, with the seam
Just take a shaker, make it mean
Cause it's just like that old mile
Every four o' clock in the morning
I think I'm gonna die
I wish it was you
Gotta get a cat up a CK
Cause that's where we're at
Gotta give a car the beetles
Cause they're just sad
Cause it's half-drawn on the shout
It could be four o' clock in the morning
If you wish it'd got no style
On the fallest town to be
I could wish this way forever
But I ever gonna be clean
No, I can't get shot
Albeit, no!
I can't get shot
Albeit, no!
I can't get shot!
Gonna make it easy for you
Wanna be the carever in the coal
Just get this on with

It's a song that most likely has no meaning.
Why do people always look for drugs in Gorillaz songs?
Sounds kinda like a fun dream to me
Yeah, this seems to be about a wet dream. Pretty cool song.
Nope. I'm 99 percent sure its about a guy who's got a heroine addiction which caused the woman he loved to leave him, so he trys to quit to get her back and start a life with her. unfortunately he wakes up every four o clock in the morning with the pains of withdrawl.
It can't be an addiction because of these lines.
Gotta get a cat up a CK Cause that's where we're at Gotta give a car the beetles Cause they're just sad
CK is a mix of Cocaine and Ketamine. Beetles are slang for something I forgot what. Other than that I agree with both ImProbablyRight and Larrow. Both have similar theories.
A lot of songs I've heard refer to 4am anyone no wats up with that ? AND its not about drugs. Hate to admit it but I see a tipsee (drunk) man because of the "we all go woo!" Lines
I have no idea what it can be about, because it seems to go all over the place without a theme, but the drug idea seems to possibly fit, with the whole
"But I ever gonna be clean No, I can't get shot Albeit, no! I can't get shot Albeit, no! I can't get shot!"
And maybe about lost love
"Check I'll hold you I wish it was you"
Wanting the needle to be his lost love, maybe.
I only look for meaning in Gorillaz songs. If drugs happen to come up to make sense, it might be. If love comes up to make sense, it might be. If wet dreams come up to make sense, i'll think about it, it might be. But I don't know. We don't know. So that's fun.
Okay. this song is talking about drugs, but as we know, gorillaz speaks in riddles. They are really talking about how someone is addicted to something, this could be anything. And yes, while this thing feels good and may be right, its not what the person wants, this person is frustrated from a previous (love?) life and wont try to fix it because leaving the comfort of his addiction is scary and daunting. A truly amazing song, talking about how we need to know whats the most important thing in our life. Giving up what makes us happy and distracted and accepting the truth and facing the pain.
Its about a guy who is making and selling drugs but he wants to stay clean and not shoot up but the end kinda shows that he has an addiction to it
