| Jack Johnson – Supposed To Be Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think this song is inspired by a song Jack covers Imagine by John Lennon (which he covers well) and by Joseph Campbell's writings he enjoys quoting (from Rolling Stone article). While he does not deny the possiblilty of Heaven thats up with the stars or Hell thats under the sea; he poses the question what if that they might not actually exist? maybe it's nowhere at all. I think his message is that when we get caught up worrying about where we came from and where will go, we do not enjoy the present moment we have now... being here is so easy to do. He is NOT saying there is no God, but says that we should appreciate and enjoy what we have on earth. It's a pretty deep message for a Curious George Album :) |
