Sanoja: Jack Johnson. En Concert. Sleep Through the Static.
Trouble travels fast when you?re specially designed for crash testing
Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon
Come on and tell us what you?re trying to prove
'Cause it?s a battle when you dabble in war
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together
Whether the storm drain running rampant
Just stamp it and send it to somebody who?s pretending to care
Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks
Learn how to use them and abuse them
And choose them over conversations
Relationships are overrated, ?I hated everyone,? said the sun
And so I will cook all your books
You?re too good looking and mistooken
You could watch it instead from the comfort of your burning beds
Or you can sleep through the static
But who needs sleep when we?ve got love?
Who needs keys when we?ve got clubs?
Who needs 'please' when we?ve got guns?
Who needs peace when we?ve gone above
But beyond where we should have gone
We went beyond where we should have gone
Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit
I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch
The feelings that rained down on the plains, all dried and cracked
Waiting for things that never came
Shock, an awful thing to make somebody think
That they have to choose, pushing for peace, supporting the troops
And either you?re weak or you use brute force-feed the truth
The truth is we say not as we do
We say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear
Of God wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a Dodge
Pick up the beat, stop hogging the feast
That?s no way to treat an enemy
Well mighty mighty appetite we just eat ?em up and keep on driving
Freedom can be freezing take the picture from the pretty side
Mind your manners, wave your banners
What a wonderful world that this angle can see
But who needs to see what we?ve done?
Who needs 'please' when we?ve got guns?
Who needs keys when we?ve got clubs?
Who needs peace when we?ve gone above
But beyond where we should have gone
Beyond where we should have gone
We went beyond where we should have gone
Beyond where we should have gone
Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon
Come on and tell us what you?re trying to prove
'Cause it?s a battle when you dabble in war
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together
