Horizon has Been Defeated into Badfish into Boss DJ by Jack Johnson

Horizon has been defeated:

Horizon has been defeated
By the pirates of the new age
Alien casinos
Well maybe it's just time to say

The things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
The trouble just seems to stay

Future complications
In the strings between the cans
But no prints can come from fingers
If machines become our hands

And then our feet become the wheels
And then the wheels become the cars
And then the rigs begin to drill
Until the drilling goes too far

Things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
Horizon begins to fade, fade, fade, fade away

Thingamajigsaw puzzled
And anger don't you step too close
'Cause people are lonely
And only animals with fancy shoes

And Hallelujahs exact nothing
And misery it's on the loose
'Cause people are lonely
And only animals with too many tools

That can build all the junk that we sell
Aw sometimes man make you wanna yell

That things can go bad
And make you wanna run away
But as we grow older
Horizon begins to fade away, fade away

Fade, fade, fade
Fade, fade, fade


BADFISH:

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
I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

Baby you're a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim, but wish I'd never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef 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 I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to get old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
