Jack Johnson-Badfish Boss DJ (cover)

When you grab a hold of me
Tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite, creep and crawl
I step into the night.
Two pints of booze
Tell me are you a badfish too? are you a badfish too?
Ain't got no money to spend
And I hope this night will never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

And baby your a big blue whale
I'll grab the reef when all duck diving fails
And I can swim but I wish I had never learned
Cuz the water's too polluted with germs
Dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
And grab the reef, that's underneath my bed
It's underneath my bed
Ain't got no quarrels with God, ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows that I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

And there's a steel train comin' in, I would take it if I could
And I would not lie to you, because Sunday mornin' soon will come

Things will be, easier to say
Upon the microphone like I'm a Boss DJ
I will walk up upon the stage, like it was dry land
A Boss DJ ain't nothin' but a man
No trouble, no fuss, I know why..

It's so nice, I wanna hear the same song twice,
It's so nice I wanna hear the same song twice

Nowadays all the songs on the radio,
They all drive me crazy

@MrAzcabowabo you are waaaaaay too angry to be a sublime fan.

[imaheymanguy]

@MrAzcabowabo dude relax, it's just music...

[7ExaltingroguE]

@jazzmasterjesus I'm a huge fan of both, but you should check out more of jack johnson! He's amazing and his stuff is so chill... Sorta like sublime

[jazzmasterjesus]

I am a huge sublime fan, and merely appreciate Jack Johnson, but straight up this cover rocks! Brad would be so down, cuz he just does it like him... not like sublime.

[ShredYourHed]

Damn stop hating, if you don't like Jack Johnson then leave.

All this verson does is make me want to listen to the original...

But to each their own!

(its not like probably 30 percent of Sublime songs were covers lol)

But the one thing I can say about Sublime that I don't think I can about ANYother group/artist, is that just about ever single cover they did do, in my opinion they made the song even better.

I guess and E for effort by Jack here though, sure there's 200 better covers of this by no names on youtube though...

@switchlightskate I don't know,sounds like you need to lighten up there buddy, Sublime Fags? C'mon grow up.

And you HONESTLY believe that Sublime's music only speaks to SO many people is because Bradley OD'd!? What about people like me and a million others who woke up and went to sleep everyday to Sublime, years before his death and their self titled album was even released?

I'm not hating on Jack or anyone, I'm just pointing out the huge obvious flaws and self contradiction in your comment. :)

[switchlightskate]

The only reason half of you sublime fags(i mean fans) are saying this song sucks is because its jack johnson? when in all reality the only reason you like sublime is b/c of bradley and his death due to drugs, otherwise sublime would just been like any other band from the ninetys, washed up and faded out. so quit bitchin and enjoy GOOD MUSIC!! All jacks doing is enjoying the freedom of love for music, while you all are enjoying the freedom of hatred for music. so shut up, light up and enjoy :)

[predator92lol007]

WTF why you hating Jack Johnson? Sublime is great but someone like Jack, especially Jack should be allowed to cover it!

[spavlic]

@Danklin24 Thats called soul bruh

[Danklin24]

Does Jack Johnson know how to play guitar without that annoying rhythmic slap on the guitar? Its good in some songs but jesus christ, do something else.
