Jack Johnson "Cookie Jar" |
I would turn on the TV But it's so embarassing To see all the other people I don't know what they mean And it was magic at first When they spoke without sound And now this world is gonna hurt You better turn that thing down Turn it around Well it wasn't me, says the boy with the gun Sure, I pulled the trigger, but it needed to be done Because life's been killing me ever since it begun You can't blame me cause I'm too young Well you can't blame me Sure, the killer was my son But I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun It's the killing on the TV screen You can't blame me It's those images he's seen Well you can't blame me, says the media man Well I wasn't the one who came up with the plan And I just point my camera at what the people wanna see Man, it's a two-way mirror And you can't blame me Well you can't blame me, says the singer of the song Or the maker of the movie, which he based his life on It's only entertainment and as anyone can see It's smoke machines and makeup Man, you can't fool me It was you, it was me, it was every man We've all got the blood on our hands We only receive what we demand And if we want hell, then hell's what we we'll have I would turn on the TV But it's so embarassing To see all the other people Don't even know what they mean And it was magic at first But let everyone down And now the world is gonna hurt You better turn it around Turn it around Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
