The Sounder Lyrics
You couldn't escape this music even if your name's Houdini. Our
tracks say Lah for Life and don't disappear like a genie. Com-
municating through your airwaves like a giant C.B. 'cause
this one's for your radios or whether you recieve me. Our
music is so hot, it feels like the sun in Tahiti. We
rickety-rock, Gorillaz style is buck wild, believe me. We
heavyweights who phase ya like Ali did with Frasier. We
spit the most flava but musically, we'll amaze ya. We've been
blessed and we've been gifted like Jesus in his manger. Won't you
shout 'Hallelujah!' Here comes your music saviour. From your
heart to your mind, your spirits to your souls, we've
come to take control with the Gorillaz on patrol. See, our
rhymes possess the powers of a superhero. Super-
naturally we rock the mic but wit' a natural flow. If you
didn't know before, you know now. We told you so.
Gorillaz rock your dome just like the one in Tokyo.
It's a hard dream to contemplate.
I could fall into the abyss-ah.
And I love this interlude.
It's the reason to deliver.
And they called onto me.
Says they came to talk to me though.
The more of us that lies,
I guess the kids don't live or die.
'Cause we're makin' this music that's making you lose it so people don't
abuse it and there ain't no way for you to refuse it. Gor-
illaz be the army that's startin' this pardy-ardy.
Makin' more noise than carnivals mixed with the Mardi-Gradi. We're
comin' through your town with the sound that's so profound.
Gorillaz with the rappers that straight from the underground. We're
tearin' it down, makin' you feel this sort of force.
Knockin' you to your senses and knockin' you off your course 'cause
we're the source, got you feeling that's so appealing. We
got you jumpin' around and bouncin' off of the ceiling.
Makin' music ya feeling from Baltimore into Bristol. I
know you're hearin' me 'cause my voice is clearer than crystal. The
casual, supernatural flows I be exposin',
makin' sure that you're frozen and makin' sure that I'm chosen to
rip a score, makin' you damage the dance floor.
Gorillaz and Phi Life'll give you what you ask for.
It's a hard dream to contemplate.
I could fall into the abyss-ah.
And I love this interlude.
It's the reason to deliver.
And they called onto me.
Says they came to talk to me though.
The more of us that lies,
I guess the kids don't live or die.
Let Gorillaz be your guiding light and your shining star, whether
you be home alone or drivin' in your car.
Don't matter who ya are, whether you be near or far, you'll be
feelin' entertained be our music repertoire.
See, our poems, they be flowin' like rivers and resevoirs 'cause
Gorllaz, we be out of this world like men of Mars.
We rap stars with supernatural spars. We
leave your brains amazed with this super music of ours.
So put your hands up and stand up. It's time to get down 'cause
Gorillaz and Phi Life, we be breakin' you 'round.
From the right to the left, from the skies to the ground. We're
coverin' all angles and you can't escape the sound.
On the track, it's laid back. We've come to spray raps. Keep it
chilled and relaxed but we still sound phat.
It's like that when we write raps. We're
not from the Empire but we still Strike Back!
Gorillaz and Phi Life, we be breakin' you 'round...

I think the last line is: Gorillaz and Phi Life, we be breakin' new ground...
i think its "they called on to me, says they CAN'T talk to me though." Its makes more sence
is it just me, or is the bass the same as in Rock the house? (or maybe I'm the last to know or something, like i always am...)
OMG! IT IS!
