Keep a mild groove on

[Redman]
Yeah, you can't keep a Gorilla out this, motherf*cker
Yeah, yo,
Oh my God,
Oh my God
Gorillaz runnin' down on you real hard

Oh my God,
Oh my God,
Gorillaz runnin' down on you real hard
Yo they call me Redman on stage slash Gorilla
So big I ride on back of vans like Magilla
My chest is hairy as f*ck my back as well
sh*t my granddad was built like a half a whale
We rip through cell doors we don't ask for bail
Happy Gilmore Gorilla whoopin' ass for real
Beat you down till they knock me for a Nike jail
Then I'm back on purple hills so I can jack the jill
They pass the thrill I'm drunk tipsy punk
My sweat called whisky I'm looking for Lewinsky
So I can get head, done, get off me girl
I'm crooked like white folks dancin offbeat
Gangsta, I'm waitin for that egg to cross me
Shut up, now you gotta pay for morphine
We are them Gorillaz you starvin the fillers
We deep like parlement members with car in the

Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
All my Gorillaz goin'
The Brick City Gorillaz goin'
N.Y. Gorillaz goin'
California Gorillaz goin'
My Florida Gorillaz goin'
My Texas Gorillaz goin'
Shack Town Gorillaz goin'

[Noodle]
Here you go!
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine

[Redman]
Yo, who's that hey? It's Mighty Joe Young
Lights, camera, action, roll drums
Now let me ask you what it feel like
With a banana in your tail pipe
Immortal I walk the jungle with my balls showin
See me coming, better leave like when bar closing
At the bar posing with my Shawn cold brim
On the bra to get her bra open
See a Gorilla take it they don't ask
I pissed on the bar's desk with laid on cash
My whole state, I'm a grown ass man
Soul survivor I write with Bobby Womack hands
Holding me down when I'm the one
The last one with a bomb and the timer on
You are them Gorillaz you starvin the fillers
We deep like parlement members with car in the

Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, my Gorillaz goin'
My Minnesota Gorillaz goin'
My Detroit Gorillaz goin'
My Oakland Gorillaz goin'
My Indiana Gorillaz goin'
My Atlanta Gorillaz goin'
Yo, my Canada Gorillaz goin'
I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, all my Gorillaz goin'
Ha, I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
Yo, all my Gorillaz goin'

[Noodle / Redman]
Here you go!
Get the cool (Gorillaz)
Get the cool shoe shine (Gorillaz)

Get the cool (Gorillaz)
Get the cool shoe shine (Gorillaz)

The song Gorillaz is an energetic rap song by Del tha Funkee hom*osapien and Gorillaz. The song starts with a simple instruction to "Keep a mild groove on". Then, Redman, known as "Gorilla" enters the scene aggressively. He talks about his power as a gorilla, his chest hairiness, his excessive drinking habits, and his liking to Lewinsky. He boasts of his brute strength and how he can easily break through cell doors. In the chorus, various rappers are mentioned, indicating that Gorillaz has a strong connection to different locations and cultures all over the world. The chorus is delivered in a chanting style between Noodle and Redman. Noodle then comes in with a catchy and repetitive verse urging everyone to get the cool shoe shine.

The song may seem like a simple braggadocio rhymefest, but it has deeper meanings. The gorilla could be used as a metaphor for someone who is tough, strong, and can't be broken. Redman, the self-proclaimed "Gorilla," represents resilience, power, and unapologetic masculinity. Gorillaz, as a group, represents unity, diversity, and power. Despite its upbeat tempo, the song warns against crossing the Gorillaz as the consequences are dire.

Keep a mild groove on
Let's keep the beat going steadily

Yeah, you can't keep a Gorilla out this, motherf*cker
Gorillaz are unstoppable

Oh my God, Gorillaz runnin' down on you real hard
Gorillaz are coming at you with full force

Yo they call me Redman on stage slash Gorilla
Redman is also a part of Gorillaz

So big I ride on back of vans like Magilla
Redman is huge and can ride on top of vans

My chest is hairy as f*ck my back as well
Redman is a very hairy guy

sh*t my granddad was built like a half a whale
Redman's grandfather was also a big guy

We rip through cell doors we don't ask for bail
Gorillaz are powerful enough to break out of jail

Happy Gilmore Gorilla whoopin' ass for real
Gorillaz are like Happy Gilmore, kicking ass for real

Beat you down till they knock me for a Nike jail
Gorillaz will keep fighting until they are put in jail

Then I'm back on purple hills so I can jack the jill
Redman will go back to doing drugs after jail to hook up with girls

They pass the thrill I'm drunk tipsy punk
Redman is drunk and looking for more fun

My sweat called whisky I'm looking for Lewinsky
Redman's sweat is like whiskey and he wants to hook up with Monica Lewinsky

So I can get head, done, get off me girl
Redman is looking for a girl to give him oral sex

I'm crooked like white folks dancin offbeat
Redman is uncoordinated like some white people

Gangsta, I'm waitin for that egg to cross me
Redman is prepared to fight anyone who challenges him

Shut up, now you gotta pay for morphine
If you talk back to Redman, you'll get hurt

Yo, I hear Gorillaz goin'
There are rumors that Gorillaz are coming

All my Gorillaz goin'
All of Gorillaz's members are on the move

Get the cool
Be cool

Get the cool shoe shine
Polish your shoes, look your best

Lights, camera, action, roll drums
Get ready for a big performance

Now let me ask you what it feel like
Let me ask you how you're feeling

With a banana in your tail pipe
With something blocking you from moving forward

Immortal I walk the jungle with my balls showin
Redman is confident and unafraid in any situation

See me coming, better leave like when bar closing
People should leave when Redman is around because he's trouble

At the bar posing with my Shawn cold brim
Redman is hanging out at the bar, looking cool

On the bra to get her bra open
Redman is trying to get a woman to hook up with him

See a Gorilla take it they don't ask
Gorillaz will take anything they want without asking

I pissed on the bar's desk with laid on cash
Redman has enough money to do whatever he wants, including urinating on things

My whole state, I'm a grown ass man
Redman is a mature adult and can handle himself

We are them Gorillaz you starvin the fillers
Gorillaz are the real deal and they won't let anyone else steal their thunder

We deep like parlement members with car in the
Gorillaz are a large group, like members of parliament with their own cars

My Florida Gorillaz goin'
Gorillaz in Florida are on the move

My Texas Gorillaz goin'
Gorillaz in Texas are on the move

Here you go!
Here's a phrase to get you pumped up
