Jack Hody Johnson (Oahu, Hawaii, EE. UU. - 18 de mayo de 1975), conocido como Jack Johnson, es un músico estadounidense. El éxito comercial le llegó tras publicar su primer álbum Brushfire Fairytales.
Ha pasado de ser un cineasta que hacía películas de surf de 16 mm, a ser un reconocido cantante y compositor. Tras pasar la mayor parte de 2003 en la carretera apoyando su disco On and On, aminoró un poco la marcha en 2004 para darle la bienvenida a su recién nacido bebé

[Intro] - Accordion - C *, Am *, Em *, F
C * Trouble travels fast C * Am * When you're specially designed for crash testing Em * Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon F Come on and tell us what you're trying to prove C * Cuz it's a battle when you dabble in war Am * You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together Em * Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it F And send it to somebody who's pretending to care
C * Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks Am * Learn how to use them, then abuse them and choose them Em * Over conver-sations relationships are overrated F "I hated everyone" said the sun
C * So I will cook all your books C * You're too good looking and mistooken Am * You could watch it instead Em * From the comfort of your burning beds F /G * …Or you can sleep through the static
CGAm Who needs sleep when we've got love? FGC Who needs keys when we've got clubs? CGAm Who needs please when we've got guns? FGC Who needs peace when we've gone above CGAm But beyond where we should have gone? FGC We went beyond where we should have gone
Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch The feelings that rained down on the plains all dried and cracked Waiting for things that never came
Shock and awful thing to make somebody think That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops And either you're weak or you'll use brute force feed The truth is we say not as we do
We say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear Of God wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a dodge Pick up the beat and stop hogging the feast That's no way to treat an enemy
Well mighty mighty appetite We just eat 'em up and keep on driving Freedom can be freezin' take a picture from the pretty side Mind your manners wave your banners What a wonderful world that this angle can see
But who needs to see what we've done? Who needs please when we've got guns? Who needs keys when we've got clubs? Who needs peace when we've gone above But beyond where we should have gone? Beyond where we should have gone We went beyond where we should have gone Beyond where we should have gone
