Jack Johnson Performs Enemy with Rob Machado

Jack Johnson performs ‘Enemy’ from his album Sleep Through The Static with Rob Machado.

Lyrics:

After we spoke I had a dream that I broke
The teeth from a mouth of a snake
That I choked on the teeth
They were mine all along

I picked up the pieces when I woke up
Put them in a boat made of things that I don’t want to see
I blew on the sail
Watched it drift out to sea
The further it drifted the closer it came to me
I can’t explain

So I took it apart built a billion boxes
There was only one key

You might think I’m your enemy
But that don’t make you mine
And all I have now is empathy
I wish that you’d stop trying
Oh, please stop lying

Stop la la la la la la la
La la la la la…

I put hatred in a box then I locked it
The strongest one I made
I buried it all, grew a tree without thorns
And sat beneath the shade

You might think I’m your enemy
But that don’t make you mine
And all I have now is empathy
I wish that you’d stop trying
Oh please stop lying
Please stop la la la la la la
La la la la la…
La la la la la…
