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 shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 

There's a monkey in the jungle 
Watching a vapour 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 

OK bring it down yeah we gonna break out 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 
Get the cool! 
Get the cool shoeshine! 

Ah Ah Ah Ah 
Day doo de bop
