Jack Johnson - Posters Lyrics
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone elseBecause the posters on the wall they don't look like him at allSo he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grinLaughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at allHe gets his courage from the can,It makes him feel like a manBecause he's loving all the ladiesBut the ladies don't love him at allCause when he's not drunkHe's only stuck on himselfAnd then he has the nerveTo say he needs a decent girlLooking at herself but wishing she was someone elseBecause the body of the doll it don't look like hers at allSo she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up, and gives a grinLaughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at allAll caught up in the trendsWell the truth began to bendAnd the next thing you know manThere just ain't no truth left at allCause when the pretty girl walksShe walks so proudAnd when the pretty girl laughsOh man, she laughs so loudAnd if it ain't this then its thatAs a matter of factShe hasn't had a day to relaxSince she has lost her ability to think clearlyWell I'm an energetic hypothetic version of another personCheck out my outsides there ain't nothing in hereWell I'm a superficial, systematic, music television addictCheck out my outsides there ain't nothing inHere comes another one, just like the other oneLooking at himself but wishing he was someone elseBecause the posters on the wall they don't look like a himAnd so he ties it up he tucks it in, he pulls it back and gives a grinLaughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at allHe knows he ain't loved at all
