Gorillaz Song One-Shots

Ch.1
She's Happy

Hey, let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
Sat in her room one day, staring out the window
She made a mel-o-dy and grabbed her old pencil
And she tapped it on her lap and made her own tempo

Young Murdoc Niccals sighed as he stared out his window. The quietly started humming at random. There was no song that went with his humming, but Murdoc liked the rhythm of his random humming. He snatched up his old pencil and a tattered notebook meant for school. Murdoc started tapping the pencil on his lap matching the rhythm of his humming.

Time went by, all night she wrote
She heard her older sister yelling at her through the door
Your mama said u betta come on before your food get cold
But she kept on writing 'til the pencil broke

Murdoc started writing in his tattered notebook. He sat for hours writing and tapping and humming. Eventually, he heard his older brother, Hannibal, banging and yelling through Murdoc's bedroom door.

"Dad said ta' get downstairs so your ungrateful mouth can eat!"

Murdoc ignored his brother and kept writing late into the night, till his pencil broke. He cursed loudly.

Ain't no need for you to worry
Ain't no need for you to cry
Ain't no need to be discouraged
You can see it in her eyes
Don't worry (Don't worry, don't worry)
'Cause she's happy (She's happy, she's happy)

Murdoc ventured downstairs where his dad lay drunk and out cold on the couch with a rum bottle in hand and the flickering TV the only source of light. He slipped into the kitchen where he found a pencil and grabbed a snack. Then he went back upstairs and started writing till morning broke. For the first time in forever, Murdoc felt happy and it shone in his eyes. He didn't even mind his father and brother's yelling and beatings as much. He was happy with how his writing was coming along and nothing could ruin his mood.

Ain't no need for you to worry
Ain't no need for you to trip
You can tell just by her swagger
Yeah, you know she's stacking chips
Don't worry (Don't worry, don't worry) (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause she's happy (She's happy, she's happy)

Murdoc smiled largely as he walked through his high school. His song was almost done. His bullies didn't even bother him.

She hung outside of the corner store
Her and her friends singing songs with the radio
She would pretend she was performing at a sold out show
And the people stopped and listened, then they asked for more

Murdoc was hanging out with his friends outside the corner store, his new bass that he's been saving for for years in his lap. They were listening to the radio and horribly singing along. Well, one voice stood out. Murdoc's head snapped to the left. That's when he saw him.

A blue haired angel with 8 ball fractured eyes, singing along to the radio as he walked out of the store carrying a bag. Murdoc unconsciously started playing to the song on his bass as the unknown angel sang with his heavenly voice. Without Murdoc noticing his friends turned the radio off.

The stranger and Murdoc finished off the song and applause from a crowd startled them. A crowd of people were clapping, cheering and asking for more. Murdoc locked eyes with the stranger's black ones. The stranger approached him.

"I'm Stuart, Stuart Pot." He held his hand out to shake Murdoc's. He shook his hand.

"Murdoc Niccals."

She came in first in the talent show
Her fam went on and on about it the whole ride home
She said I've never got so many compliments before
Her momma said, 'Girl, you gon' make it. Baby, I just know'

Murdoc and Stuart became good friends after their accidental duet. When Murdoc's dad forced him to join the school's talent show for the prize money. Stuart went right along.

Together they won the show by a landslide. Sebastian Niccals was so happy over the fact that Murdoc had won him money that he even drove Murdoc and Stuart home instead of making them walk. He went on and on about it the whole way home.

Murdoc and Stuart were now best friends and they wrote more and more songs together. They were both so happy nothing was bringing them down.

Stuart's parents didn't worry anymore about him hanging around Murdoc when they saw the pure joy that was etched onto his face whenever Murdoc was near.

She heard about a site that was called MySpace
Her cousin told her, 'You should put up all the songs you made'
Next thing you know she got hundreds and thousands of plays
And got noticed by a guy that came by her page

A good friend of Murdoc's told him that he and Stuart should post their songs on it. Murdoc talked to Stuart who could only shake his head yes as he shook with excitement. Before they knew it they got millions of plays. An agent contacted Stuart and told him he wanted them to come to L.A. Stuart told Murdoc and then they were off.

They flew her first thing out to L.A.
They had her sing of few songs, I guess she did okay
Now she's signed, doing fine, and well on her way
Yeah, I guess you figured out that girl is me

Murdoc packed and left in the middle of the night and went to Stuart's where they left and caught a plane to L.A. the very next morning. Together they played and sang a few songs for the agent. He signed the ecstatic duo after 3 songs and they knew they would do fine and rock this world with their sound.

One night, on their first tour Stuart gave Murdoc the nickname Muds and Murdoc gave him the name of 2D. They were both beyond happy and just stared into each other's eyes. 2D made the first move and kissed Murdoc who eagerly kissed back.

And thus, Gorillaz was started and 2D and Muds were born.

Yeah, they were happy.

Hey!
