Sacred Words of Jack Johnson

As I was playing the pod today, I realized how good these lyrics were. Jack Johnson says it much better than I could have...read closely for full benefit.


Breakdown

I hope this old train breaks down then I could take a walk around

See what there is to see, time is just a melody

With all the people in the street walking fast as their feet

Can take them, I just roll through town

And though my window’s got a view, well the frame I’m looking through

Seems to have no concern for now

So for now I need this here old train to breakdown

Oh please just let me please just breakdown

Well this engine screams out loud, centipede going to crawl westbound

So I don’t even make a sound cause it’s going to sting me when I leave this town

And all the people in the street that I’ll never get to meet If these tracks don’t bend somehow And I got no time that I got to get to where I don’t need to be

So I I need this here old train to breakdown

Oh please just let me please just breakdown I want to break on down

But I can’t stop now

Let me break on down

But you can’t stop nothing if you got no control

Of the thoughts in your mind that you kept and you know

That you don’t know nothing but you don’t need to know

The wisdom’s in the trees not the glass windows

You can’t stop wishing if you don’t let go

Of the things that you find and you lose and you know

You keep on rolling, put the moment on hold

Because the frame’s too bright, so put the blinds down low

I need this here old train to breakdown

Oh please just let me please just breakdown I got to break on down

But I can’t stop now
