If you keep adding stones
No one ever seems to be digging
It's enough to make me cry
Songwriter: Jack Johnson
There's kids playing games on the pavement
The shadows on the way to the Heavens
Shadows of the planes on the pavement
With their eyes on the Heavens
It's enough to make me sigh
Puzzle pieces in the ground
But no one ever seems to be digging, instead they'll say
I'll tell them it's really not so hard to tell, na na na
They're talking about the plans on the paper
And no one ever seems to listen, instead they'll say
If you keep adding stones
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, na na na
If you keep adding stones
Well how could we have known?
Building up from the pavement
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
Instead they're looking up towards the Heavens
The answers could be found, we could learn from digging down
Whole place will fall into pieces and then they'd say
Soon the water will be lost in the well, lost in the well
Well how could we have known?
Maybe it's a dream and if I scream it will burst at the seams
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, na na na
Well how could we have known?

Words of wisdom all around
Soon the water will be lost in the well
The words are all around but the words are only sounds
The shadows from the scrapers on the pavement
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
But no one ever seems to listen
It's enough to make me cry
Drawing waves on the pavement
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
Soon the water will be lost in the well
There's traffic in the sky
