situations / Jack Johnson .2005. In Between Dreams
Situation number one
It’s the one that’s just begun
But evidently it’s too late
〈狀況一 也就是才剛起步，卻很明顯踏慢了一步．〉
Situation number two
It’s the only chance for you
It’s controlled by denizens of hate
〈狀況二 它是你唯一良機，它老被憤世忌俗的那夥人所統領．〉
Situation number three
It’s the one that no one sees
It’s all too often dismissed as fate
〈狀況三 它沒有人看的清，它太被常被視為宿命來處理．〉
Situation number four
It’s the one that left you wanting more
It tantalized you with it’s bait
〈狀況四 它讓你企求的更多，它垂著誘餌要捉弄你．〉

這是短短的一支歌，只有一分十七秒。
簡單的吉他，簡單的嗓音，簡單的認真。
曾看過一篇報導，說Jack Johnson 一再確定他的專輯完全以再生紙發行後，
才坐在家裡的錄音室中，抱著吉他，一心一意的從第一首歌一路錄製到最後一首歌，
一秒未停。
〈但我找了一下網頁，都沒有這則新聞或消息，好吧也許我錯了。〉
但他是個衝浪大男孩是可以確定的。

好人都到哪去了？
Good People / Jack Johnson .In Between Dreams 2005.
Well, you win, it's your show now
So what's it gonna be
Cause people will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
Well, it's bad, getting worse so
Where'd all the good people go
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
They got this and that
With a rattle'l'tat
Testin, 1, 2
Man, what you gonna do
Bad news, misused
Got too much to lose
Gimme some truth
Now whose side are we on
Whatever you say, turn on the boobtube
I'm in the mood to obey
So lead me astray, and by the way now
Where'd all the good people go
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
Sitting around, feeling far away
So far away, but I can feel the debris
Can you feel it
You interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great it's all gonna be
You might notice some hesitation
It's important to you, it's not important to me
But way down by the edge of your reason
Well, it's forgetting the show
And all I really wanna know is
Where'd all the good people go
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
(Where'd all the good people go)
They got this and that
With a rattle'l'tat
Testin, 1, 2
Man, what you gonna do
Bad news, misused
Gimme some truth
You got too much to lose
Now whose side are we on
But anyway, ok whatever you say
(where'd all the good people go)
Wrong or resolute, I'm in the mood to obey
Station through station
Desensitizing the nation
Where'd all the people go
Going, going, gone
