Song lyrics
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on

Alright yeah ha ha
Finally someone let me out of my cage
Now, time for me is nothing 'cause I'm counting no age
Now I couldn't be there, now you shouldn't be scared
I'm good at repairs and I'm under each snare

Intangible, bet you didn't think so, I command you to
Panoramic view, look I'll make it all manageable
Pick and choose, sit and lose, all you different crews
Chicks and dudes, who you think is really kickin' tunes?

Picture you gettin' down in a picture tube
Like you lit the fuse, you think it's fictional
Mystical, maybe, spiritual, hearable
What appears in music clear your view when you're too crazy

Lifeless, to know the definition for what life is
Priceless to you because I put you on the hype sh*t
You like it, gun smokin' righteous with one token
Psychic among those, possess you with one go

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on

The essence, the basics, without it, you make it
Allow me to make this childlike in nature
Rhythm, you have it or you don't, that's a fallacy, I'm in them
Every sproutin' tree, every child of peace, every cloud you see

You see with your eyes, I see destruction and demise
Corruption in disguise from this f*ckin' enterprise
Now I'm sucked into your lies through Russel, not his muscles
But the percussion he provides with me as a guide

Y'all can see me now 'cause you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind, that's the inner
So I'm gonna stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rhymes, so motherf*ckers remember

Where the thought is I brought all this
So you can survive when law is lawless
Feelings, sensations that you thought was dead
No squealing, remember that it's all in your head

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
My future is coming on

It's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on
My future

You forgot after, "Now you shouldn't be scared."
This part...

"I'm good at repairs
And I'm under each snare."

I don't mean to offend anyone reading this forum, but if any of the 57 replies (including Mr. Acid) never took Ecstasy , then maybe the song would go from confusing but it sounds fun, to the illest fucking song you ever have laid your ears, eyes and every other part of your body on.

Specifically,

You think it's fictional ...Overwhelming euphoria
Mystical? Maybe ...Who the fuck cares, its awesome
Spiritual ...Only the soulless are lost at this point
Hero who ...When you need it the most
Appears in you ...Hero within yourself
To clear your view ...Call me Mr. 6 hour Einstein
When you're too crazy ...Nothing wrong with false happiness, while you're on it.

ACID = More of a twitchy, attack on the body (still good, but not this song)

Ecstasy = Brings you at one with your enviroment and yourself, this song is generally very positive.

And if I was not able to convince you then listen to any of the other 25 Gorillaz songs about X (the good and the bad)

And to make one more comment to answer everyone's question... It is called Clint Eastwood because Clint Eastwood was a big druggie, so they named the song after him. The album is called celebrity take-down because acid/drugs took down Clint Eastwood.

O, and the sunshine in a bag part... Acid makes you feel like a kid again. Everything is new. Feelings are extremely intense. If you are a little bit afraid normally, you are mega scared on acid. sunshine in a bag refers to an object that you want the enitre time you are on it that you carry around to make yourself feel better.

For everyone who keeps asking what this song is about or that they don't understand it: This song is pretty much about what the guy saw when he was on acid. Acid makes you hallucinate, which explains why the music video is so wack. Sometimes people have panic attacks because they get confused and think that their hallucinations are real... this would also explain the line that says "no squeelin' just remember that it's all in your head."... If you still don't understand, then try acid and you will. If you aren't willing to try it, then you probably won't ever understand.

i'm not sure why it's called clint eastwood, but 2d's real name is stuart tesspot, and before he was in gorillaz he was known as stu-pot. that was before mardoc broke his eyes, and made him have 2 dents in his head, now he's 2 dent, aka 2d. ...how sad that i know this information... i have no life. haha

this is a great song times 10... i love gorillaz to death
