Jon Brion
Put On Some Speed (Demo Version)
[Verse 1]
There'll be no payoff today
I'm just refusing to play
I'm gonna stand here and say
"C'mon, do your worst!"
Of course they'll never hear me
But we knew 'bout that from the first

[Verse 2]
I've had some lessons to learn
But they are not your concern
I think at least you'd admit
You get what you choose
'Cause I'm out here watching
Walking around in your shoes

[Chorus]
No one is running for help
'Cause no one saves you from yourself
You've got solutions you need
Well, put on some speed

[Verse 3]
You never knew me at all
Now you tell me who's at fault
I left that book on the table
For you to read
But you've got to be willing
To pick up the language at least
[Chorus]
And no one is running for help
'Cause no one saves you from yourself
You've got solutions you need
Well, put on some speed

[Bridge]
There’s not a “they” who’s gonna stop it
That idea went with Adam, right after the fall
No longer can we call on our fathers
We're all alone, and it's all for all

[Chorus]
No one is running for help
'Cause no one saves you from yourself
You've got solutions you need
Well, put on some speed
