The Horizon Has Been Defeated / Mother And Child Reunion (live 2008) Lyrics & Chords By Jack Johnson

Horizon has been defeated
By the pirates of the new age
Alien casinos
Well maybe it's just time to say
The things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
The trouble just seems to stay
Future complications
In the strings between the cans
But no prints can come from fingers
If machines become our hands
And then our feet become the wheels
And then the wheels become the cars
And then the rigs begin to drill
Until the drilling goes too far
Things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
Horizon begins to fade, fade, fade, fade away
Thingamajigsaw puzzled
And anger don't you step too close
'Cause people are lonely
And only animals with fancy shoes
And Hallelujahs exact nothing
And misery it's on the loose
'Cause people are lonely
And only animals with too many tools
That can build all the junk that we sell
Aw sometimes man make you wanna yell
That things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
Horizon begins to fade away, fade away
Fade, fade, fade
Fade, fade, fade
