Don't Speed

Middle of the week...Full moon, or something
Tailgate party on the 405... Stop, go, stop, go... No fun

So, I'm driving down the freeway-People all zooming around
I looked down at my speed-o-meter-Man, these guys are going to town!

Wondering where the fire was
Was it free food and beer again?
Living here in America
Gonna make you some kind of party fiend

But, Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed
Red, white and blue...(guitar!)

Now, you're racing to a red light-I can see it ahead
Why are you still accelerating?
Have you got the demon in your head?
Does it make you, wake you in the middle of the night
With a fever that's so hard to bear?
Why don't you just slow down a little-yeah we can all get there

Don't Speed , Please Don't Speed,
Don't Speed , Please Don't  Speed
Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed-Red, white and blue
Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed-What's got into you?

You got places to be; People to see
How about a little common courtesy?

Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed
And we won't have to fight
Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed
And you'll get home safe, tonight
If you Don't Speed, Please Don't Speed
Come on, you know I'm right
