The world is spinning too fast
I'm buying lead Nike shoes
To keep myself tethered
To the days I try to lose

My mama said to slow down
You must make your own shoes
Stop dancing to the music
Of Gorillaz in a happy mood

Keep a mild groove on

Ba ba ba
Day dee bop

There you go
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine

There's a monkey in the jungle
Watching a vapor trail
Caught up in the conflict
Between his brain and his tail

And if time's elimination
Then we got nothing to lose
Please repeat the message
It's the music that we choose

Keep a mild groove on

Ba ba ba
Day dee bop

Okay, bring it down yeah
We gonna break out
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Day doo de bop
