Breakdown (Jack Johnson)



I hope this old train breaks down /Then I could take a walk around
And, see what there is to see /And time is just a melody
All the people in the street/ Walk as fast as their feet can take them
I just roll through town/ And though my windows got a view
The frame I'm looking through/ Seems to have no concern for now
So for now/ I need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just/ Let me please breakdown

This engine screams out loud/ Centipede gonna crawl westbound
So I don't even make a sound/ Cause it's gonna sting me when I leave this town
All the people in the street/ That I'll never get to meet
If these tracks don't bend somehow/ And I got no time
That I got to get to/ Where I don't need to be

So I /I need this/ Old train to breakdown
Oh please just/ Let me please breakdown
I need this/ Old train to breakdown
Oh please just/ Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down/ But I cant stop now
Let me break on down/ But you cant stop nothing

If you got no control/ Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you know/ You don't know nothing
But you don't need to know/ The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows/ You cant stop wishing
If you don't let go/ But things that you find
And you lose, and you know/ You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold/ The frames too bright
So put the blinds down low

I need this/ Old train to breakdown
Oh please just/ Let me please breakdown
I need this/ Old train to breakdown
Oh please just/ Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down/ But I cant stop now
