Jack Johnson - Fall Line Medley lyrics

rate me

I don't care if it rains or freezes

as long as I've got my plastic Jesus

sitting on the dashboard of my car

it comes in colors pink and pleasant

it glows in the dark cause its iridescent

I'll take it with me whenever I go far

so give me my lady Madonna

dressed in rhinestones and sitting on a

pedestal of abalone shells

driving 90 but I'm not scared

because I've got my Virgin Mary

assuring me that I will never go to hell

And by the way

You know that hope will make you strange

Make you blink, make you blank, make you sink

It will make you afraid of change

And often blame

The box with the view of the world

And the walls that fill the frame

I turn it up but then I turn it off

Because I can't stand when they start to talk

About the hurting and killing

Whose shoes are we filling

The damage and ruin

Man, the things that we're doing

We gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off

We gotta rewind and start it up again

Because we fell across the fall line

Ain't there nothing sacred anymore

Somebody saw him jump

But nobody saw him slip

I guess he lost a lot of hope

And then he lost his grip

Now he's lying in the freeway

In the middle of this mess

Guess we lost another one

Just like the other one

Optimistic hypocrite

That didn't have the nerve to quit

The things that kept him wanting more

Until he finally reached the core

He fell across the fall line

Ain't there nothing sacred anymore
