The Happy Dictator (feat. Gorillaz)

I am the one to give you life again
I am the one to save your soul, amen

As the shadows, they are forming, come and join me centre stage
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
If you're empty and abstracted and your broken heart is full of rage
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)
In a world of fiction, I am a velvet glove
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
I am your soul, your resurrection, I am the love
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

So look out to the west now, see where the devil lies
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
Its pharmakon is with you and your empire, it is paralysed
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)
I'll propagate eternity and seal it with my kiss
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
So look into the coffin and let me grant your wish
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)

No more bad news
So you can sleep well at night
And the palace of your mind
Will be bright

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Everything is slowing down, yet everything is faster
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
While everyone's consuming, I'll save you from yourself
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)
Upon this world of fiction, my love I will bestow
(Oh, what a happy land we live in)
And as we march into the future, happiness will grow
(Oh, what a happy land, oh, yeah)

No more bad news
So you can sleep well at night
And the palace of your mind
Will be bright

Everything is slowing down, yet faster (will be bright)
And consuming, I'll save you from yourself (will be bright)
My love bestowed on this world of fiction (will be bright)
We march to the future, happiness grows (will be bright)
Are you not better off than ever? (Will be bright)
And are you not better off right now? (Will be bright)
When have you felt this way? I ask you (will be bright)
When have you felt better off than now? (Will be bright)

I am the one to give you life again
I am the one to save your soul, amen

No more bad news (mountains and rainbows)
You can sleep well at night (palaces)
And the palace of your mind (of love)
Will be bright (mountains and rainbows)
You can sleep well at night (palaces)
And the palace of your mind (of love)
Will be bright

Will be bright (so you can sleep well at night)
The palace of your mind
Will be bright (so you can sleep well at night)
And the palace of your mind
Will be bright (so you can sleep well at night)
And the palace of your mind
Will be bright (so you can sleep well at night)
And the palace of your mind, woo
