Posters Lyrics - Brushfire Fairytales - Jack Johnson

Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else 

because the posters on the wall they don't look like him at all 

So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin 

laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all 

He gets his courage from the can, 

it makes him feel like a man 

because he's loving all the ladies 

but the ladies don't love him at all 

Cause when he's not drunk 

he's only stuck on himself 

and then he has the nerve 

to say he needs a decent girl 

Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else 

because the body of the doll it don't look like hers at all 

So she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up, and gives a grin 

laughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at all 

All caught up in the trends 

well the truth began to bend 

and the next thing you know man 

there just ain't no truth left at all 

Cause when the pretty girl walks 

she walks so proud 

and when the pretty girl laughs 

oh man, she laughs so loud

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

And if it ain't this then its that 

as a matter of fact 

she hasn't had a day to relax 

since she has lost her ability to think clearly 

Well i'm an energetic hypothetic version of another person 

check out my outsides there ain't nothing in here 

Well i'm a superficial, systematic, music television addict 

check out my outsides there ain't nothing in 

here comes another one, just like the other one 

looking at himself but wishing he was someone else 

because the posters on the wall they don't look like a him 

and so he ties it up he tucks it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin 

laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all 

he knows he ain't loved at all
