Jon Brion
It Takes All Kinds
[Verse 1]
As we were speaking of the devil
You walked right in
Wearing hubris like a medal
You revel in
But it's me at whom you'll level
Your javelin

[Chorus]
Wasn't that just our dear friend Ron?
Throwing your weight around the sun
Happier now that you've become
What you hated

[Verse 2]
I'm surprised I even thought I
Had half a chance
I was just one in a million
Of also-rans
Who was sure to be your victim
Of circumstance

[Chorus]
Once you were just our dear friend Ron
Selling the soul you swore upon
Spreading the word that you've become
What you hated
[Bridge]
And if I don't understand...
Well, I guess it takes all kinds

[Verse 3]
I would like to keep this vision
Of you intact
When we'd hang around and listen
To Bacharach
And you loved the world you lived in
And it loved you back

[Chorus]
Once you were just our dear friend Ron
Now you look out for number one
Who would've guessed that you'd become
What you hated

[Outro]
And I guess it takes all kinds
