Inaudible Melodies - Jack Johnson

Brushfire fairytales

Itsy bitsy diamond wells

Big fat hurricanes

Yellow bellied given names

Well shortcuts can slow you down

And in the end we’re bound

To rebound off of we

Well dust off your thinking caps

Solar powered plastic plants

Pretty pictures of things we ate

We are only what we hate

But in the long run we have found

Silent films are full of sound

Inaudibly free

Slow down everyone

You’re moving too fast

Frames can’t catch you when

You’re moving like that

Inaudible melodies

Serve narrational strategies

Unobtrusive tones

Help to notice nothing but the zone

Of visual relevancy

Frame-lines tell me what to see

Chopping like an axe

Or maybe Eisenstein should just relax

Slow down everyone

You’re moving too fast

Frames can’t catch you when

You’re moving like that

Well Plato’s cave is full of freaks

Demanding refunds for the things they’ve seen

I wish they could believe

In all the things that never made the screen

And just slow down everyone

You’re moving too fast

Frames can’t catch you when

You’re moving like that

Slow down everyone

You’re moving too fast

Frames can’t catch you when

You’re moving like that

Moving Too…
