Traffic In The Sky
Jack Johnson




There\'s traffic in the sky - and it doesn\'t seem to be getting much better
There\'s kids playing games on the pavement
Drawing waves on the pavement - mm hm
Shadows of the planes on the pavement - It\'s enough to make me cry
But that don\'t seem like it could make it feel better - Maybe it\'s a dream and if I scream
it will burst at the seams and - this whole place will fall into pieces
and then they\'d say...
Well how could we have known? - I\'ll tell them it\'s not so hard to tell
na na na - if you keep adding stones
soon the water will be lost in the well  mm hm
Puzzle pieces in the ground - but no one ever seems to be digging
Instead they\'re looking up towards the heavens - with their eyes on the heavens
mm hm - the shadows on the way to the heavens - mm hm
It\'s enough to make me cry - but that don\'t seem like it would make it feel better
The answers could be found - we could learn from digging down
but no one ever seems to be digging - instead they\'ll say...
Well how could we have known? - I\'ll tell them it\'s not so hard to tell - na na na
if you keep adding stones - soon the water will be lost in the well - mm hmmm
Words of wisdom all around - but no one ever seems to listen
They talk about their plans on the paper - Building up from the pavement - mm hm
there\'re shadows from the scrapers on the pavement - mm hm
It\'s enough to make me sigh - but that don\'t seem like it would make it feel better
The words are all around - but the words are only sounds
and no one ever seems to listen - Instead they\'ll say...
Well how could we have known? - I\'ll tell them it\'s really not so hard to tell - na na na
If you keep adding stones - soon the water will be lost in the well
lost in the well   mm mm mm
