Middle Man - Jack Johnson

Well he’s not necessarily tryin' to say that he minds it

But someone plays evil tricks on that kid

Well he’s not necessarily tryin' to say God can’t be trusted

But someone plays evil tricks on that kid

And certain situations scream for deviations

But somehow he always gets stuck in the middle

Of this and that and man he should try less

Every time he’s rejected man he loses affection

But don’t we all, don’t we just got to give a little time

Maybe give a friend a call instead of makin' him

Confused

What a terrible thing for you to do

What an awful thing for you to say

What a terrible thing for you to relate

Well I know some people’s they got a little less than nothing

They will still find some to spare

And other people got more than they could use

But they don’t share

And some people got problems man

They got awful complications

Other people got perfect situations

With no provocation

But don’t we all, don’t we just got to give a little time

Maybe give a friend a call instead of makin' him

Confused

What a terrible thing for you to do

What an awful thing for you to say

What a terrible thing for you

Confused

What a terrible thing for you to do

What an awful thing for you to say

What a terrible thing for you to relate

Somehow we always get stuck in the middle

(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)

Confused

(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)

What an awful thing for you to do

(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)

Confused

(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)

What an awful thing for you to say

(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)
