Jack Johnson - My Mind Is For Sale Lyrics






Well, I heard the blinker's on
I heard we're changing lanes
I heard he likes to race
I heard that six or seven words he likes to use
Are always in bad taste
And I heard that Monday's just a word we say
Every seven times around
And then we pin the tail on Tuesday
Watch those strings go up and down
And the elephant in the room begins to dance
The cameras zoom into
His mouth begins to move
Those hateful words he uses

I don't care for your paranoid
Us against them walls
I don't care for your careless
Me first gimme gimme appetite at all

And all the real estate in my mind is for sale
It's all been subdivided
Divided into reasons why
My two opposing thoughts at once are fine
The residue from the price tag
On the tip of my tongue
The words don't come they go
How many likes I gotta get
Before I know the truth
And the truth is
Season three will be a great reason
To forget all about reality's
A slippery slope
Watch the TV scream and shout it

I don't care for your paranoid
Us against them fearful kind of walls
I don't care for your careless
Me first gimme gimme appetite at all

Now I heard the blinker's on
I heard we're changing lanes
I heard we need more space
I heard that six or seven words are in bad taste
It's absurd to believe that we might
Deserve anything
As if its balanced in the end
And the good guys always win

I don't care for your paranoid
Us against them fearful kind of walls
I don't care for your careless
Me first gimme gimme appetite
With the residue from the price tag
On those two opposing thoughts in my mind
Us against them fearful kind of walls

  11. J.... ....

    TRUMP 2020 MAGA. This guys a cuck. Sweet sounding song ill admit, but about baseless hate nonetheless, what a hypocrite. Give one real tangible factual reason why you could truly "hate" Trump. Bunch of garbage. A whole song, all he could say is adhominem attacks and anti-wall BS. Idiot libtards. Stfu cringe boy.

  12. M.... A....

    Love ur songs...mmm can you make a song about friends?

  29. M.... M....

    This is disappointing. Get your head out of your ass jack johnson. Not everyone is full of sunshine and rainbows. Our President knows that and is trying to protect people like me and my Family. See I live in Texas close to the border. I know what's is happening because I've had to adjust my life to deal with people that do not care about breaking the law and taking whatever they want. Lots of bad people are here.

    M.... M....

    Hugs and Kisses to you, my love. May everything that you wish come true, and all of the realizations of how sweet the world that you have left for your children and grandchildren may come to pass. Perhaps, in your last gasping breath, you will realize how you have strangled your progeny- in your case, I would imagine that you will smile. You, after all, got yours. The hell with anyone who follows you, sweetheart.

    Hugs and Kisses,

    Jay.

  30. l.... ....

    I started to listen to Jack to forget the political turmoil, but it's clear he has no idea what's really happening. Bummer

  31. S.... P....

    I need this song today after so much hatred, violence, and death in the world. God be with us all...

  32. F.... F....

    Who did it first jack johnson or josh ridder???

  33. D.... R....

    Wow so nice

  34. N.... R....

    in a million years I would have never thought I'd dislike a jack johnson so but as a guy that was attacked by 5 ms13 put into long coma 4brain injuries and as a guitar player myself a fucked up leftside left me wanting to die for years and many times you're songs bring my spirit up but those 5 cowards that did not know me at all were illegals so yeah I been a huge fan for years guess I'm glad your just only a surfer musician and not a man in real power
    fuck u and fuck this song I bet all of u is for sale

  35. N.... R....

    kinda glad youre not putting out much music now

  36. N.... R....

  39. N.... A....

    This is the best lyrics video ever. So homemade ♡

  40. j.... 4....

    Hope I dont get hate for this. I support trump, but this song is still beautiful. And I respect Jack's opinion and his right to protest. Thank you for making phenomenal music and expressing yourself beautifully and peacefully jack. I will forever be a supporter of your music.

  41. T.... A....

    Oh my goodness, I need more of this in my life. Protest without the anger, resistance without fighting.

  42. �.... ....

    This song gets better and better

  46. J.... R....

    You re amazing!!

  47. E.... R....

    Great music...

  48. N.... ....

    Jack heard a lot things about the man that is the president but it takes intelligens to relay now someone. Believing i rumors is not the way to learn the truth!

  49. N.... ....

    I love you and your music but Donald Trump is the best president for US in a long time! Love to the world......

    N.... ....

    I would have to disagree but as long as we can still express our opinion freely in America I am happy both of us can do so.

  50. A.... F....

    Hire Jack Johnson to build THE WALL..sorry not trying to make it political. It was just my first thought.

  51. J.... M....

    Can't believe how soothing his music is!

  52. N.... M....

    People need to just open their minds and ears, music is a vessel . Messages are spread through music because its an form we can all enjoy. If you dont like the message, so be it! Music is freedom, listen if you want :) Peace and love

  53. B.... M....

    the most creative video

  54. J.... C....

    Que música gostosa de se ouvir. Não canso😍

  55. J.... P....

    People can't even enjoy music now, everyone seems to be reading into the lyrics too much.

    J.... P....

    The lyrics are there for a reason

    J.... P....

    No Shit Sherlock @Craig Grey

  56. S.... 1....

    Such a Jack Johnson way to say “Fuck Trump”

  57. A.... N....

    Your the BEST ever! Love the song

  58. S.... G....

    Best anti-trump song I heard ever.
    I thought it was a chill social commentary, but then again I guess it still is

    S.... G....

    @Ralph Stefan He didn't call immigrants rapists and animals, he called SOME illegal immigrants rapists and animals and if you follow along you will learn he is right.


    Did he actually grab private parts of women or talk about it?


    Was it Trump or Hillary that colluded with Russia 2016? The transcript that lead to the 4th vote for impeachment in three years if anything he was asking to figure out what happened in the 2016 election not asking for help in 2020 look at what he is running against he don't need any help his opponents are doing it for him.


    countless bankruptcies?? Trump has filed 6 times for bankruptcies for his businesses he also created over 500 successful businesses employing thousands of employees. That is almost 99% success rate. Only 50% of startup businesses in the US on average survive longer than 5 years.


    I don't get wound up with the day to day stuff but looking back he has done some very good things for this country. I don't think I would ever be friends or hang out with Trump but that's okay with me like the CEO of my company we are not buddies either I just want them to keep doing what is best for the company / United States the employees / citizens

    S.... G....

    Rebar07 ever wonder how trump was able to do those things he claimed he’s ‘done’? It was because of the Obama administration, Republicans were complaining about how the economy wasn’t moving as fast as it should have under Obama, but Obama was setting the nation on a linear path of economic growth. Trump took over at the right time and profited from what Obama did. Obama was a great president and not enough people give him credit for what he did for this country. So suck up your right wing viewpoints, and get out of this comment section you nazi.

    S.... G....

    @Ralph Stefan where have all the good people gone? The Democrats have destroyed them all.

    S.... G....

    Wow! The left wingers on this reply thread know very little other than what they are told to believe by their propaganda media. All of the things you've claimed are not even true and have been debunked for years!

    S.... G....

    @Rebar07 Stop being such a troll. Trump has intentionally created divisions and hate as a political tool. I don't give a shit about the stock market or the employment numbers, I care about human decency and our future, as do most good people. Jack's message is represented quite well with your behavior which is how hate is used to mask insecurities and fear.

  59. P.... B....

    Am I the only one that finds it funny Jack' s building walls lmao

  60. J.... A....

    I can't play this song enough

  61. R.... T....

    Soooooo chillllll, heard on radio and shazammed it right away!

  62. I.... m....

    This video is so creative!!

  63. O.... ....

    As a right winger, this is the perfect way for a musician to use their platform as a means of political awakening. He has No inciting of violence, only a quiet peaceful song about disagreeing

    O.... ....

    I don't think this song is about right or left, I think Jack is just morally opposed to the current president. I know a lot of people on the right feel the same way.

    O.... ....

    @David Cliff Jack’s politics are clearly left of center. He criticized Bush in “Sleep Through the Static,” and now he’s chastising Trump in this song. Interestingly, Jack didn’t say a peep about Obama, not when drone strikes killed American civilians, or when Diplomat Chris Stevens was Killed in Benghazi, or when Eric Holder’s justice department illegally spied on journalists. Jack’s moral outrage was somehow absent during this stretch. Now Jack is going to preach to us about President Trump’s “hateful words” and his “paranoid us against them walls,” which, artistically speaking, is cliché and nothing more than liberal group-think. It’s easy for Jack to say these things from his very comfortable and secure paradise island home (paid for by the capitalist system he rails against). The truth is that Jack’s song is divisive at its core, despite the chill melody. It provokes and alienates Trump supporters (63 million voted for Trump in 2016, and over 90% of conservatives currently support him), and is completely hypocritical. His song subdivides us politically, while preaching that judging and subdividing are wrong.

    O.... ....

    @David St. Hubbins Thank you for writing 7 sentences about all the bad things that happened during Obama's 8-year presidency! Now I will write a 14 book series about all the idiotic things that Trump has done in his 2 years as president! 😊

    O.... ....

    Clarendon Road Will those books have no words on them.

    O.... ....

    @Clarendon Road I'm sure he's working on the encyclopedia 40 volume account of all the things Obama did wrong during his 8 years, give the guy some time to type though! Just because your media wouldn't tell you about it doesn't mean all of the horrible things Obama did (or the many things he failed to do) as President didn't happen.

  64. B.... B....

    I think this songs about me jack might not be a happy song but cool to hear my favorite artist ever to make a song about me hope one day we can sing on stage my friend best concert I ever seen at the gorge thanks for writing that.

  65. G.... S....

    I don’t caaarrree for this song at all

  66. O.... M....

    Um pouco chato e repetitivo o clipe. Podia ter variado. Mas valeu! Música linda.

  67. p.... a....

    Every jack johnson song reminds me of amir

  68. C.... P....

    President Trump just signed two important bills today--the "Save Our Seas Act" (an important piece of legislation that's critical in the global fight to tackle the ocean trash crisis); and the "Music Modernization Act" (that administers the "mechanical licensing" of compositions streamed on services like Spotify and Apple Music). Both of these are great for Jack Johnson and his activist causes, so perhaps Jack might stop being so angry and making anti-Trump videos where he smashes things with a baseball bat. Why all the anger anyway, Jack? You live on a paradise island, for goodness sake. :-)

    C.... P....

    I didn't see this video! Where is it at?

  69. A.... E....

    If he only knew that he had two us against them fearful kind of walls in his mind. Then we'd have a good place to start.

    Unfortunately he doesn't even know that he has two opposing sides in his mind. Can you imagine how painful it will be to wake and find that you've made all of these destructive decisions?

  70. V.... O....

    I just discovered Jack Johnson a month or so ago. This is the first time I have heard this song, and I have to say I dislike it, and if any other artist sang it, I would write them off. I like him and his music enough to think that he's not the smartest man in the world, but I will keep listening.

  71. N.... ....

    Heard what?

  72. c.... f....

    Our generations non violence protestor. Love this song and video.

    c.... f....

    Ps is that a picture of Jeff Buckley on the piano or Jack or who?

  73. J.... P....

    Careleless

  74. S.... S....

    This video is trippy! Love the music as well😍

  75. J.... J....

    Thanks again Jack. You are my 1 1/2 year old grandson's favorite artist - he'll grow up a rebel for sure.

  76. S.... R....

    Love from the Himalayas! :)

  77. P.... ....

    Apparently my mind was for sale too. Tin foil helps ; 0) What's next, my ass or something!!!

  83. B.... J....

    I think I may be addicted to Jack Johnson's music. I listen to his music to relax the way some people use drugs to calm themselves down and reduce stress.

  84. S.... G....

    HB to this song

  85. C.... R....

    1 year ago Today!

  86. L.... S....

    Yeah man!!!!

  87. A.... B....

    This is obviously a song about our president. When he tries to say, "I don't care for your Paranoid, Us against them walls, I don't car for your careless me first gimmie gimmie appetite at all." What should be said is, other countries are "me first gimmie gimmie" and "us against them walls" is the US citizens dealing with increased tax costs in housing, benefits, law enforcement, detaining illegals and violent immigrants, and sex trafficking, human trafficking." Come on Jack, get the fuk out of here with this bullshit.

  88. C.... M....

    alguém 2018?

  89. d.... a....

    Jack now you are going to tell me that after all these years you Fear for Tears for the orange sex appeal ? What do we got Jack.. Oranges or Apples ?.. The East Coast or the West Coast ?...
