Staple It Together - Jack Johnson

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 got to 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

Caught from the places that he did 'cause he forgot to look

He better staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

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 deep into the ditch, 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, and his world is getting smaller

Better staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

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 got to 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

Caught from the places that he did 'cause he forgot to look

He better staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

Staple it together and call it bad weather

If the weather gets better we should get together

Spend a little time or we could do whatever

And if we get together we’d be twice as clever

So staple it together and call it bad weather
