Текст песни:

i hope this old train breaks down
then i can take a walk around and
see what there is to see
time is just a melody

but the people in the streets
walk as fast as their feet can take em
i just rode through town
and though my window′s got a view
well the frame im lookin′ through
seems to have no concern for now so for now

i need this
old train to breakdown
oh please just
let me please breakdown

well this engine screams out loud
centipede gonna crawl westbound and
so i don′t even make a sound cause
its gonna sting me when leave this town

and all the people in the streets
they′d never get to meet
if these tracks don′t bend somehow
and i got no time
that i got to get to get to where i dont need to be

so i

i need this here
old train to breakdown
oh please just
let me please breakdown
i need this
old train to breakdown
let me please break down
i wanna break on down but i can′t stop now
let me break on down

but you can′t stop nothin′
if you got no control
of the thoughts in your mind
that you kept and you know
you dont know nothin
but you dont need to know
the wisdoms in the trees
not the glass windows
you can′t stop wishin if you dont let go
the things that you find and you lose and you know
you keep on rollin′
put the moment on hold
the frame′s too bright
so put the blinds down low

i need this
old train to breakdown
oh please just
let me please breakdown

wanna break on down
but i can′t stop now

Текст песни:

the light was leaving and the west it was blue
the children′s laughter sayin they′re skippin′ just like the stones they threw
the voices echoed across the ways it′s gettin late

it was just another night with the sunset and
the moonrise not so far behind
to give us just enough light
to lay down underneath the stars listening to
papa′s translations of the stories accross the sky to do our own constellations

The west winds often last too long
but when they come down nothing ever feels the same
Sheltered under the kamani tree waiting for the passing rain
clouds keep moving to uncover the sea
stars above us chasing the day away
To find the stories that we sometimes need
listen close enough all else fades
fades away

it was just another night with the sunset and
the moonrise not so far behind
to give us just enough light
to lay down underneath the stars listening to
all the translations of the stories accross the sky to do our own constellations

Текст песни:

If I had eyes in the back of my head
I would have told you that
You looked good
As I walked away

If you could′ve tried to trust the hand that fed
You would′ve never been hungry
But you never really be

The more of this or less of this or is there any difference
or are we just holding onto the things we don′t have anymore

Sometimes time doesn′t heal
No not at all
Just stand still
While we fall
In or out of love again I doubt I′m gonna win you back
When you got eyes like that
It won′t let me in
Always looking out

Lot of people spend their time just floating
We were victims together but lonely
You got hungry eyes that just can′t look forward
Can′t give them enough but we just can′t start over
Building with bent nails we′re
falling but holding, I don′t wanna take up anymore of your time
Time time time

Sometimes time doesn′t heal
No not all
Just stand still
While we fall
In or out of love again I doubt I′m gonna win you back
When you got eyes like that
It won′t let me in
Always looking out
Always lookin

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

If you could read my mind
You′d say baby you′re right
And I don′t wanna fight anymore
You′re usually righter than I am
And I′m not a very good fighter
And my, neither are you

So let′s be through with this one
Cause some things never change
I know you′re still my same girl
Who builds her own frames
For the pictures that she paints
With lots of monoray
Men across the bay
Right back to my same girl
Uhmmm hmmm hmmmm
Uhmmm hmmmm hmmmmm hmm
How can you be so calm when the truth is sometimes
Living in the eye of the storm
With everything going on around us
I feel comfort in the sounds when you say
It will be ok
Like a star that′s immune to the light of the day
Told dreams it could follow me
But not with my same girl
How builds her own frames
For the pictures she paints
With lots of monoray
Men across the bay
Right back to my same girl

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

It feels right
It feels wrong
It feels like when you have it, then it′s gone
I want more
More and more
And if you steal the fire
Give me some
Cause the sun
Disobeys while it waits for a friend to arrive from the past
What holds us around, and around
While we wait

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

Well based on your smile
I′m betting all of this
Might be over soon
But your bound to win
Cause if I′m betting against you
I think I′d rather lose
But this is all that I have

So please
Take what′s left of this heart and use
Please use only what you really need
You know I only have so little
So please
Mend your broken heart and leave

I know it′s not your style
I can tell by the way that you move
It′s real, real soon
But I′m on your side
And I don′t want to be your regret
I′d rather be your cocoon
But this is all that you have

So please
Let me take what′s left of your heart and I will use
I swear I′ll use only what I need
I know you only have so little
So please
Let me mend my broken heart and

You said this was all you had
And it′s all I need
But blah blah blah
Because it fell apart and
I guess it′s all you knew
And all I have
But now we have
Only confused hearts and
I guess all we have
Is really all we need

So please
Let′s take these broken hearts and use
Let′s use only what we really need
You know we only have so little
So please
Take these broken hearts and leave

Текст песни:

It′s as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big
as her bubbly toes
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all
covered with tar balls and scars
It′s as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will
follow wherever she goes
up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,
I know she could

I remember when you and me mmm how we used to be just good friends
Wouldn′t give me none
But all I wanted was some
She′s got a whole lot of reasons
She cant think of a single one
That can justify leaving
and he got none but he thinks he got so many problems
Man he got, too much time to waste

His dreams are like commercials
But her dreams are picture perfect and
Our dreams are so related though they′re often underestimated

It′s as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

La da da da da da

Well I was eating lunch at the D. L. G.
When this little girl came and she sat next to me
I never seen nobody move the way she did
Well she did and she does and she′ll do it again

When you move like a jellyfish
Rhythm don′t mean nothing
You go with the flow
You don′t stop
Move like a jellyfish
Rhythm is nothing
You go with the flow
You don′t stop

It′s as common as something that nobody knows it
Her beauty will follow wherever she goes
Up the hill in the back of her house in the wood
She′ll love me forever, I know she

If you would only listen
You might just realize what you′re missing
You′re missing me
If you would only listen
You might just realize what you′re missing
You′re missing me

It′s as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

Nice game to play...

Текст песни:

Brushfire fairytales

Itsy bitsy diamond wells
Big fat hurricanes
Yellow bellied given names
Well shortcuts can slow you down
And in the end we′re bound
To rebound off of we

Well dust off your thinking caps
Solar powered plastic plants
Pretty pictures of things we ate
We are only what we hate
But in the long run we have found
Silent films are full of sound
Inaudibly free

Slow down everyone
You′re moving too fast
Frames can′t catch you when
You′re moving like that

Inaudible melodies
Serve narrational strategies
Unobtrusive tones
Help to notice nothing but the zone
Of visual relevancy
Frame-lines tell me what to see
Chopping like an axe
Or maybe Eisenstein should just relax

Slow down everyone
You′re moving too fast
Frames can′t catch you when
You′re moving like that

Well Plato′s cave is full of freaks
Demanding refunds for the things they′ve seen
I wish they could believe
In all the things that never made the screen
And just slow down everyone
You′re moving too fast
Frames can′t catch you when
You′re moving like that

Slow down everyone
You′re moving too fast
Frames can′t catch you when
You′re moving like that
Moving Too....

Текст песни:

Sexy sexy made up of plexi disasters

Pushing and pulling conservative rolling
Unlike plastic, easier to see through
Just like glass with no ring
Softer and sadder you sing
Sexy sexy do your thing
Learn to be shy and then you can sting
Plexi, plexi bend don′t shatter
Once you′re broken, shape won′t matter

You′re breaking your mind
By killing the time that kills you
But you can′t blame the time
′Cause its only in your mind

Quickly quickly grow and then you′ll know
It is such and awkward show to see
And everyone you wanted to know
And everyone you wanted to meet
Have all gone away
Well they′ve all gone away

And now you′re
Breaking your mind
By killing the time that kills you
But you cant blame the time
′Cause its only in your mind

You′re breaking your mind

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

Watch you when you say
What you are and when you blame
Everyone, You broken king
Watch you change the frame or
Watch you when you take your aim
At the sum of everything

[Chorus]
Cause you and your heart
Shouldn′t feel so far apart
You can choose what you take
Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard

You lay there in the street
Like broken glass reflecting pieces of the sun
But you′re not the flame
You got the people passing by
Because you know what you don′t like
It′s just so easy, it′s just so easy

[Chorus]
But you and your heart
Shouldn′t feel so far apart
You can choose what you take
Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard
Oh and you and your heart
Shouldn′t anekatips feel so far apart
You can choose what you take
Why you gotta break and make it feel so hard

You draw so many lines in the sand
Lost the fingernails on your hands
How you′re gonna scratch any backs?
Better hope that time will take our lines away
Take all our lines and

Hope that time will take our lines and
Hope that time will take our lines away
Take all our lines away

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

Cause lies were killing me and the censor begun
You cant blame me cause I′m too young

You cant blame me sure the killer was my son
But I didn′t teach him to pull the trigger of the gun
It′s the killer on this TV screen
You cant blame me its those images he sees

Well you cant blame me says the media man
Well I wasn′t the one who came up with the plan
I just filled my camera with what the people want to see
Man it′s a two way mirror and you cant blame me

You cant blame me says the singer of the song
Or the maker of the movie which he based his life on
It′s only entertainment and as anyone can see
The smoke machines and makeup
Hey you cant fool me

It was you it was me it was every man
We′ve all got the blood on our hands
We only receive what we demand
And if we want hell then hells what well have

And I would turn on the TV
But its so embarrasing
To see all the other people
I don′t even know that they mean
And it was magic at first
But it let everyone down
And now this world is gonna hurt
You better turn it around
Turn it around

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

How many times must we go through this?
You′ve always been mine, woman I thought you knew this
How many times must we go through this?
You′ll always be mine, Cupid only misses sometimes

But we could end up broken hearted
If we don′t remember why this all started
And if they try to tell you love fades with time
Tell them there′s no such thing as time
It′s our time

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

Everyone laughed at her joke
As if they′d never even heard it before
And maybe they were truly amused
But every word that she spoke was a bore
And maybe it′s because they had seen
The previews on the TV screen
Well this part is good and that′s well understood
So you should laugh if you know what I mean

But it′s all relative
Even if you don′t understand
Well it′s all understood
Especially when you don′t understand
Then it′s all just because
Even if we don′t understand
Then lets all just believe

Everyone knows what went down
Because the news was spread all over town
And fact is only what you believe
And fact and fiction work as a team
It′s almost always fiction in the end
That content begins to bend
When context is never the same

And it′s all relative
Even if we don′t understand
And that′s well understood
Especially when we don′t understand
Then it′s all just because
Even if we don′t understand
Then lets all just believe

I was reading a book
Or maybe it was a magazine
Suggestions on where to place faith
Suggestions on what to believe
But I read somewhere
That you′ve got to beware
You can′t believe anything you read
But the good Book is good
And that′s well understood
So don′t even question
If you know what I mean

But it′s all relative
Even if you don′t understand
Well it′s all understood
Especially when you don′t understand
And it′s all just because
Even if we don′t understand
Then lets all just believe

But there you go once again
You missed the point and then you point
Your fingers at me
And say that I said not to believe
I believe
I guess
I guess it′s all relative

Текст песни:

situation number one, it′s the one that′s just begun
but evidently it′s too late
situation number two, it′s the only chance for you
it′s controlled by denizens of hate
situation number three, it′s the one that noone sees
all too often dismissed as fate
situation number four, the one that left you wanting more
it tantalized you with its bait

@ Jack Johnson

Текст песни:

it′s such a tight game
will it ever stop ?
how will this all play out
of sight out of mind now

by now we should know how to communicate
instead of coming to blows
we′re on the road and there aint no stopping us now
we′re burning under control
isn′t it strange how we′re all burning
under the same sun
by now they say if it′s a war for peace
it′s the same old game
but do we really wanna blame ?
we could close our eyes it′s still there
we could say it′s us against them
we could try but nobody wins
gravity has got a hold on us all
we could try to put it out
but it′s a growing flame
using fear as fuel
burning down our name
and it won′t take too long
Words all burn the same
And who are we going to blame
now and all

it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame
it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame
it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame
shame shame shame

by now it′s beginning to show
A number of people are numbers that aren
i could close my eyes it′s still there
close my mind, be alone
i could close my heart and not care
but gravity has got a hold on us all

it′s a terrific price to pay
but in the true sense of the word
are we using what we′ve learned
in the true sense of the word
are we losing what we were

It
will it ever stop ?
it′s not for me to say
and is it in our blood ?
or is it just our fate ?
and how will this all play out ?
both sides out of my mind now
who are we gonna blame all in all ?

it′s just a crying, crying crying shame
it′s such a crying, crying crying shame
it′s such a crying, crying crying shame
shame shame shame

Текст песни:

Do you remember when we first met i sure do
it was some time in early september
but you were lazy about it you made me wait around
i was so crazy about you i didn′t mind
So I was late for class, I locked my bike to yours
it wasn′t hard to find you painted flowers on it
guess that i was afraid that if you rode away
you might not roll back my direction real soon

well i was crazy about you then and now but the craziest thing of all
over ten years have gone by and you′re still mine
locked in time let′s rewind

Do you remember when we first moved in together
The piano took up the living room
you played me boogie woogie, i played you love songs
You

We built our getaway up in a tree we found
We felt so far away but we were still in town
Now I remember watching that old tree burn down
i took a picture that i don′t like to look at

Well all these times they come and go
And alone don
Over ten years have gone by
we can′t rewind, we′re locked in time
but you′re still mine

do you remember ?
