Jack Johnson Month Day 16
Song: Staple It Together
Artist: Jack Johnson, In Between Dreams
Oh wow. This song hit different today. I've known this song for years now, but it felt like I was hearing it for the first time. The lyrics resonated with me on a different level. I love that I can still be inspired by songs I think I know!
It's really
Too bad
He became a prisoner of his own past
He stabbed the moment in the back
With the round thumbtack
That held up the list of things he gotta do
It's really,
No good
He's moving on before he understood
He shot the future in the foot with every step he took
From the places that he's been 'cause he forgot to look
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Mm hmm
Well I guess you could say
That he don't even know where to begin
'Cause he looked both ways but he was so afraid
Digging deeper to the ditch
With every chance he missed
And the mess he made
'Cause "Hate" is such a strong word
And every brick he laid
A mistake they say
That his walls are getting taller
His world is getting smaller
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Mm hmm
Whoo
It's really
Too bad
He became a prisoner of his own past
He stabbed the moment in the back
With the round thumbtack
That held up the list of things he gotta do
It's really,
No good
He's moving on before he understood
He shot the future in the foot with every step he took
From the places that he's been 'cause he forgot to look
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
Better staple it together then call it bad weather
Staple it together then call it bad weather
If the weather gets better
We should get together
Spend a little time and we could do whatever
And if we get together we'll be twice as clever
So, staple it together and call it bad weather, mm hmmm
