The God of lying es la sexta pista y el tercer adelanto del álbum The mountain de Gorillaz (2026), una canción con la colaboración de IDLES. Coescrita por Damon Albarn y Joe Talbot, y grabada entre Londres, Devon y Bombay, la canción cuenta con Ajay Prasanna al bansuri y Viraj Acharya en la percusión. En ella, el líder de IDLES despliega su inconfundible energía a través de una interpretación vocal de estilo dub, cargada de preguntas y escaso consuelo, que refleja los temas centrales del disco: la tensión social y política contemporánea. Estreno del visualiser el 6 de noviembre de 2025.
Letra
Who am I?
Are you happy with your housing? Are you climbing up the walls?
Are you deafened by the headlines? Or does your head not hear at all? Are you pacified by passion?
Are you armed to the teeth?
Are you bubbling at the surface, of what’s cooking underneath?
Are you dying for an answer?
From what they call good grief?
But there’s a terrific chance there’s nothing, beyond what you believe
Oh don’t you say that you think I’m in glory
Oh don’t you say that you think I’m going to get no glory
Running to the exit with a huge grin on my face
Screaming hope is behind and I wanna get high
I went to the liquor store and they took all my money
I stared into the mirror there and begged a man to love me
Do you love your blessed father? Anoint by fear of death
Do you feel the lies creep on by? As soft as baby’s breath
Do you beg that truth will set you free? Are you shackled by the keys?
Well if I was you, I’d stay strapped in, cos’ all you’ve got is me.
Oh don’t you say that you think I’m in glory
Oh don’t you say that you think I’m going to get no glory
Running to the exit with a huge grin on my face
Screaming hope is behind and I wanna get high
