This song is telling everyone to take a step back and quit moving so fast through everyday life... That being said..SLOW THE F DOWN EVERYONE!!! Great tune! Lyrics below:

Brushfire fairytales
Itsy bitsy diamond wells
Big fat hurricanes
Yellow bellied given names
Well shortcuts can slow you down
And in the end we're bound
To rebound off of we

Well dust off your thinking caps
Solar powered plastic plants
Pretty pictures of things we ate
We are only what we hate
But in the long run we have found
Silent films are full of sound
Inaudibly free

Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that

Inaudible melodies
Serve narrational strategies
Unobtrusive tones
Help to notice nothing but the zone
Of visual relevancy
Frame-lines tell me what to see
Chopping like an axe and

Maybe Eisenstein should just relax

Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that

Well Plato's cave is full of freaks
Demanding refunds for the things they've seen
I wish they could believe
In all the things that never made the screen
And just slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Moving Too....

  • SLOW DOWN EVERYONE, SLOW DOWN EVERYONE. It's right, we're go towards total anihilitation with this pace, slown down so that we can live together with nature in a slow melodic nice gentle and good world. Who needs all the technology in the world? What for? Are we trying to cheat death? Slow sown so that w can have a proper life, everything is it's place, children growing happy and slowly and very old people dying happy after a full life of achievments.

see all

  • Good video! Wasn't sure if you knew though, Jack Johnson wrote this song as a poem in the beginning about Bruce Lee. When Bruce Lee starred in his first movie the directors told him to slow down because he was too fast for the frames to catch him :) I learned that from a radio show Jack Johnson was on talking about it. He sang the Bruce Lee version of that song on the radio show. Jack obviously redid the song without Bruce Lee being involved in it :P
