Leave it to a bunch of animated characters to shed light on the upcoming US Presidential inauguration.Damon Albarn’s crew of misfits with their first bit of new music in five years. “Hallelujah Money” is the new single that plays like a rallying cry against the new commander in chief. The ominous video uses the “all seeing eye” as a backdrop; playing into the fears of Illuminati naysayers.
Gorillaz bassist, Murdoch, took to their FB page to air some grievances:
“In these dark times, we all need someone to look up to. Me. That’s why I’m giving you this new Gorillaz song, a lightning bolt of truth in a black night. You’re welcome. Now piss on! The new album’s not gonna write itself.”

Gorillaz (feat. Benjamin Clementine) “Hallelujah Money”
Here is our tree
That primitively grows
When we go to bed
Scare crows from the Far a-East
Come to eat its tender fruits
I have thought that the
Best way to protect our tree
Is by building walls
Walls like unicorns in full glory and galore
Even stronger than the walls of Jericho
Be glad then my friend
That in a few
We shall reap abundantly
What we’d always dreamt of havin
Enough of the starvin
It is love
That is the root of all evil
Not our tree
And thank you my friend
For trusting me
Hallelujah Money
Hallelujah Money
How will we know
When the morning comes
We are still humanz.
How will we know?
How will we dream?
How will we love?
How will we know?
Don’t worry my friend
If this be the end
Then so shall it be
Until we say so
Nothing will move
Ah, don’t worry
It is not against our morals
It’s legally tender
Touch my friend
What the whole world, and whole beasts of nations desire: power
Hallelujah Money
Cross the chemtrail sun
Hallelujah Money
