This is the bonus track on UK edition of the fabulous Oh! Mighty Engine album
released on Jack Johnson s Brushfire records label. Classic example of the simple
genius of the old surfer dude.
(Verse 1)
6 Hours and 90 minutes, the distance increment
For you I have found, the way to compound, every minute the minute you re in it.
And the finer points of flying, the rules for living not dying.
Yeah we re up here for now, let s not wonder how, we re airbourne and hope to stay in it.
(Chorus)
Babe why don t we admit it
We like it but we don t know what s in it.
And the finer points of flying, were hard to explain.
They re hard to explain.
(Verse 2)
In the ins and outs of trying, tender bouts of lying
That keeps love alive, that river is dry, the metaphor hard to deliver.
5 Hours and 90 minutes, the distance less increment
For you I have found, the way to compound, every minute the minute you re in it.
And the finer points of flying, the rules for living not dying.
Yeah we re up here for now, let s not wonder how, we re airbourne and hope to stay in it.
(Chorus)
Babe why don t we admit it
We like it but we don t know what s in it.
And the finer points of flying, were hard to explain.
They re hard to explain. They re hard to explain.
