Oh, what a situation that don't wanna stop

It's, yeah
It's a sweet sensation over the dub
Oh, what a situation that don't wanna stop

The lyrics in Gorillaz's song "Re-Hash" imply two possible themes. It could be describing a sense of joy that lasts forever, or it could be focused on the pursuit of financial gain. When the lyrics mention "sweet sensation" and "sweetest inspiration," it could be referring to the power that positive experiences, such as love or passion, can provide. However, the repeated phrase, "It's the money or stop," suggests that the song is about the pursuit of wealth and the desire for accumulating more.
The use of the word "dub" also has two possible meanings. It is used to refer to a music style originating in Jamaica, characterized by transforming existing songs through the addition of new sounds and rhythm. The repetition of the phrase "money or stop" might also evoke the feeling of an endless, hypnotic loop, drawing upon the looping and layering techniques often used in dub music.
Overall, the lyrics in "Re-Hash" suggest a tension between the pursuit of financial gain and the joy of living, with the possibility that the former might lead to the abandonment of the latter.
