In Between Dreams, 2005
Written by Jack Johnson
The narrator, inspired by the rainy weather, implores his baby to ignore any and all external responsibilities and stay in, sleeping late, making love. "This song is meant to keep ya / From doing what you're supposed to / Like waking up too early." As if the temptations of the comfy warm bed and the flesh were not enough, he might make you banana pancakes. That's a pretty good food metaphor for this light, inoffensive, tropical folk vibe song, actually: sweet, not too daring, fun. Two dimensional, but tasty.
