you know it's true we're both the same.
in a storm of words we get lost in what is said.
You know me and you see through me.
so why are you confused by the things i say and do?
Do you know me?
You see the strain upon my face
Please , don't rain on my parade.
It comes to light, it comes in waves,
it's gone too late.
it goes astray, it goes too far and you say
it's clear i know where all your buttons are.
it's not so strange, you know, it's not so queer
that i know they're there 'cause i'm the one
who put them there, exactly as you feared.
i know you and i see though you
so why am i surprised by the things you say and do?
i don't know why.
i see the strain upon your face.
i won't rain on your parade.
it comes to light it comes in waves.
it's gone too late.
Don't steal the smile fom off my face.
Please don't rain on my parade...
i know that i can't replace you
and it would be a lie to say that i could ever try.
it's gone too late
it's gone too late
it cuts too ways
it cuts too ways
it's gone too late
Been meeting in the back room
Been gathering in the parking lot
Been talking in the break room
Of what were are doing with what we've got
Been meeting on the front lawn
Been gathering in the parking lot
Been talking in the break room
Of labour and unrest and eyeing the clock
Are you okay with what you've got?
We're throwing down our push brooms
We're hanging up our apron ties
We're coming from the back roads
Out of the fields and the factory lines
Mutiny!
Tell your brother and your sister
Tell your auntie and your uncle too
Tell your mother and your father
Your friends and your cousins and we need you
Strike!
We've walked so far
But we can walk all night
We're marching from the shipyards
We're marching from the hospitals
We'll take it to the town hall
I want to celebrate
Lift up Your holy name
Hear my praise

I exalt You
In the middle of nowhere when we're looking for something
Then we raise our heads for the color red
I am too a spirit and a wonderer
And I welcomed the dew as much as you did
When we're looking for brushwood
In the nearest neighbourhood
Then we follow the sky with the eye
We search vegetation and surprised by the rain
We're stumbling, tripping home again
In the middle of nowhere when we're looking for something
Then we raise our heads for the color red
I am too a spirit and a walker
And I welcomed the dew as much as you did
We found the little man and his aeroplane
But we never located the animal
Examined the dirty ground
where did you go after the parade
I wandered, searching for about an hour
then I parked it on a bench
shifting and sulking
those pesky little mosquitoes
they nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly drained me
then a man dripping with vitalis
said I looked like Joe Namath
he asked me did I used to be famous
and I said "neighbor, I'm famously late"
and I said "neighbor, I'm famously late"
where did you go after the parade
you never even appeared to enjoy it
I came out of it with a slight experience
drinking and howling at the natives
you're a great at disappering
you left me with an ear ache
I spit into the swan lake saying
"what a hideous rewiev"
saying, "what a hideous rewiev"
weather, barometric pressaure
push me to the ground
my stomach is growling
I always heard this was such a festive town
but everybody over ten years old is frowning
everybody over ten years old is frowning
where did you go after the parade
I didn't expecting you to be bolting away
remember the time you took me
to see Harold and Maude
'cause I didn't know the meaning
of the word catharsis
we are busy weaklings
poking around for reasons
we are happy little heathens
it's just time we both admit it
Hooray, Hooray
Here comes the parade
Someday, someday
I'll spit these thoughts out
Before they stain me
Finally, they're here for me
I've been waiting now for days
This is my melody
this is my sympathy for your coming out
this is your coming out parade
You've been here for several years
and your life's been quite alright till now.
He says "you've done something wrong"
you've scored, but he says you've done something wrong
Reaching out for him to hold you,
or just to call you, holding off for something
just to sing along.
This is my melody
this is my sympathy for your coming out
this is your coming out parade
this is my melody for your coming out
Kindness is dead in this town
and drama has been crowned
the acceptable medium of living.
Kindness is dead in this town
and drama holds the crown.
All alone here, dying slowing here.
Screaming loud dear, that you
you need more from me.
You know, you know
it's gleaming out your eyes
and you know, you know
white man in white pants was dancing
inside out and lost his ass
a little black girl on black rollerblades
found his butt and picked it up
and gave it back and said "hey pops,
c'mon down we're having a parade!"
everybody in this town
is turning brown, it's summertime
c'mon down we're having a parade
don't answer your phone, let it sing
and join the orchestra of rings
that will be our soundtrack for today
a million people realize there's better things to do
than wasting their whole lives being accessible to you
like throwing off their clothes and marching down the avenue
singing "i'm in new york city, don't i look so pretty? hey!"
mike bloomberg and jesse jackson
sit in tompkins square relaxin'
reach a stalemate start another game
sarah jessica, tawana,
and the indian jane fonda
eating mr. softies in the shade
a big fat mama in a thong
and a college girl with nothing on
share a laugh over a lemonade
seven foot trannies trading tricks
with business men on pogo sticks
'cause everyone's invited, hip hooray!
a million people realizing that reality
is much more real outside their door than it is on TV
a plethora of specimens have taken to the street
singing "i'm in new york city, don't i look so pretty? hey!"
it's summertime in new york city
and the people aren't just plain old pretty
they're hot as hell, i think i'm gonna faint
even the junkies and the hari krishnas
and the guy who spray paints solar systems
on the backs of plastic paper plates
it's so hot you could fry an egg
on the back of the pit-bull humping my leg
i kinda like it, what more can i say?
'cept here comes hot dog in her wig
she's three times a lady, sweating like a pig
the sun is shining everything's okay
a million people realize a smile on someone's face
is even more contagious than west nile or sars or aids
and what makes people smile more than a big parade
through the streets of new york city
where everyone's so pretty
life used to be so shitty
but it's summertime, summertime, summertime, wooooooooo!!!!!!
white man in white pants was dancing
inside out and lost his ass
a little black girl on black rollerblades
found his butt and picked it up
and gave it back and said "hey pops,
c'mon down we're having a parade,
c'mon down we're having a parade,
c'mon down we're having a parade,
woohoo! hey!!!"
(P. Goodhand-Tait)
I came through today
At the back of a street parade
And their I am, right side of your TV screen
Slightly out of focus
but unmistakably serene
Never made the big time
but I was in that scene.
Oh I was thinking about in films
How in no time so it seems
The hero meet his princess
The king found his queen
But in real life
There's only in between
I've never been a hero
But I was in that scene.
Hollywood exist still
Cause there's a sign upon the hill
We buy the maps, and make the tours
To touch the world of, motion, pictures.
(Guitar Solo)
So here I am
Until the good time end to be
I've never made the big time
But I was in that scene
Hollywood exist still
Cause there's a sign upon the hill
We buy the maps, and make the tours
To touch the world of, motion, pictures.
A star died today
And they had a little street parade
And all the other stars turned out
To say how nice he'd been
Someone at the back
Flowing with the stream
Never made the headlines
But I was in that scene.
Someone at the back
Flowing with the stream
Never made the headlines
But I was in that scene.
Someone at the back
Flowing with the stream
Never made the headlines
Don't try to figure me out
Don't try you'll only fail
I'm not a reed in the sand
You're already starting to pale
Everyone's gone for the summer again
Something is building , i don't understand
A hummingbird larks in my hand
But i'm too busy chasing parades
To ever love you the same
Just breathe
He's going away
Pack up your jacket and shoes
Kiss all my friends one more time
Don't take a minute on paintings you see
There's a curtain on the blinds
Peeking is stealing the life you don't share
There's a map of a memory, of us over there
Dangerous questions are near
I'm too busy chasing parades
To love you the same
Just breathe
I'm going away
here comes dawn today
to light the candles
burn for you
here comes dawn again
to burn the both ends down
here he comes again
who wants to turn the world for you
here he comes again
who can't believe at all
here comes your parade
down all the miles for you
here comes your parade
to light the flags for you
i come wide awake
to shake a dream from out of view
i come wide awake
to lay them all away
here comes your parade
to turn the world for you
here comes your parade
down all the miles for you
here comes your parade
down all the miles for you
down all the miles for you
here comes your parade
here comes your parade
to turn the world for you
here comes your parade
down all the miles of you
here comes dawn again
to light the candles
burn for you
here comes dawn again
to burn the both ends down
here comes your parade
down all the miles for you
here comes your parade
to light the flags for you
The crowd is looking drowned and a mother in tears
There are flip-flapping flags in the silence
And a national anthem's a blues in these days
Flag him down, rest in peace
What peace do you mean when the boys are coming back
The boys are coming back
When the boys are coming back in coffins
He's live on TV
He's dead as a hero can be
But... he didn't die for nothing, my dear
The video of his death is travelling the world
Flag him down, rest in peace
What peace do you mean when the boys are coming back
The boys are coming back
When the boys are coming back in coffins
Way back in the crowd
A girl says goodbye to a boy
To a boy who's parading to heaven
And she puts all the blame on the government
Flag him down, rest in peace
What peace do you mean when the boys are coming back
The boys are coming back

[MUSIC TIL FADE]
You hang your clouds up over me
You show your love sarcastically
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
You stretch the truth until it breaks
You watch my smile disintegrate
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Everyone's laughing
I never can tell why
Maybe I should laugh along
My head says live for yesterday
My heart says let it drift away
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
it's raining
i know you think that everyone is looking at you
why do you think everyone is looking at you?
you think it's funny?
well i'm starting to
you better get in
it's raining on your parade
you better go back inside
before the big one comes and washes us all away
i know you think that everyone is looking at you
why do you think everyone is looking at you?
you think you're stunning
well i'm stunning too
you better get in
it's raining on your parade
you better go back inside
before the big one comes and washes us all away
when the sun shines
and dries up all of the rain
it's all the same, it doesn't matter
but if it doesn't shine
and take away the blame
then it's not the same
it's not the same
you wanted this, another point of view
and then i saw another side of you
roses turn black when i'm blue
fuck me?
well fuck you too!
it's raining on your parade
you better go back inside
before the big one comes and washes us all away
when the sun shines
and dries up all of the rain
it's all the same, it doesn't matter
but if it doesn't shine
and take away the blame
then it's not the same
Is there nothing left to say?
Does it fall into theory?
All the words get in the way
Neither one of us yielding
Like a stone thrown blind
Every breath bruise mine
Watch the process become decay
The wait is hard
And we'll all leave scared
While we're waiting for the parade
If it goes by fast
Such a thread of outcasts
There's no reason to be afraid
Can't we just pretend it's a game?
You win without protest
It always ends the same
There's no reason to confess
Lets not draw a line
Take it just in time
Maybe I'll win another day?
The wait is hard
And we'll all leave scared
While we're waiting for the parade
If it goes by fast
Such a thread of outcasts
There's no reason to be afraid
Waiting (X8)
If I never come through
You will always pull through
If I never come through
You will always pull through
The wait is hard
And we'll all leave scared
While we're waiting for the parade
If it goes by fast
Such a thread of outcasts
There's no reason to be afraid

When I see you, you see me
But it's through me you manage to see
So I try all the while to be your shadow
When your down I'm around
I keep your head up above the ground
I wear a smile all the while
You're one and only
I live in fantasy because my life's been hard on me
Like working overtime without any pay
That's why my daydreams turn into reality
So baby, treat me right and don't rain on my parade
Hey, hey
It's good to live through another day
And possibly when I wake I won't be lonely
I live in fantasy because my life's been hard on me
Like working overtime without any pay
That's why my daydreams turn into reality
So baby, treat me right and don't piss on my parade
I wiped away the sweat on my face
And I looked around the room
There was nothing out of place
But nothing was happening too soon
I could see the empty chair
Leaning against its shadow
Even though there was nothing there
There was something in my eyes followed
Like marks across the sky
Erased as they're made
I could see people going by
Through the moonlit shade
But no one stopped to look
Through the blinds on the window
I guess they all took
Me for someone they don't know
A parade falls apart
When the music slows down
When the streets are in knots
But there's no one left in town
When the sweat leaves your face
And the fear leaves your knees
And you live in this place
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Oh let's bomb that factory
That makes all the wannabes
Let's burst all the bubbles
That brainwash the masses
As far as I can tell it doesn't matter who you are
If you can believe there's something worth fighting for
The color of an eye, the glory of a sudden view
The baby in your arms, the smile he always shoots at you
Believing in nothing
Makes life so boring
So let's pray for something
To feel good in the morning
As far as I can tell it doesn't matter who you are
If you can believe there's something worth fighting for
The color of an eye, the glory of a sudden view
The baby in your arms, the smile he always shoots at you
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Kaboom
Get it right, get it right now
Get it right, do it good
Get it right now
Oh doctor we're dying
There's no use in crying
So live for tomorrow
And do what you have to
As far as I can tell it doesn't matter who you are
If you can believe there's something worth fighting for
The color of an eye, the glory of a sudden view
The baby in your arms, the smile he always shoots at you
Electric
For something
To feel good in the morning
In the morning
In the morning
In the morning
In the morning
They will show me what I want to see
we will watch without grief
we stay one step ahead of relief
you tell me that we've been praying
for a bright and clever hell
I think we've been forced to our
knees but I can't tell
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
It's so hot in here
What are they trying to hatch?
We must not be frail, we must watch
Now that I'm out of touch with anger
now I've nothing to live up to
I don't know when to stop joking
when I stop I hope that I am with you
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
What on earth is the size of my life?
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
And my position is somewhere
[Hook:]
Odd (I'm not yet a man)
Future (Still not of a boy)
Wolf (This my only joy)
Gang (Now let's parade in gold)
[Verse 1:]
Welcome to the euphoria of cocaine without able
I can make music that makes sense, but not meant to be stable
Eighteen with the whole world in front of me
Odd Future teenagers, nobody can fuck with we
[Hook]
[Verse 2:]
I scream and jump around on couches while you sit and talk
I skip to places, smilin' faces, while you fuckin' walk
My TV stays on Cartoon Network, fuck that Twilight shit
You have highlights about your life, I have half of my high life bitch
Go to college, get a job, marry, have a kid
Watch them grow and then you die? No, nigga fuck the system
[Hook]
[Verse 3:]
Good kids make bad grown ups
Stay gold, stray old, maturin' means that your life sucks
In my wolf suit, I roam where the wild things at
Still growin', still learnin', not knowin' that I'm Matt
I don't wanna grow up, I know that shit for a fact, nigga eighteen
[Hook]
[Verse 4:]
They say I'm immature, I say that they depressed
I talk to unicorns, I'm wearin' a uniform
Of a nigga that don't give a fuck about time
You feel the tide is turning now
This whole town is changing
This status quo, this one men show
And we are gonna break it
They’d understand
This is gonna end
Wait for tonight
We'll light up the sky
Show me the way to a brighter day
Show me the way, show me the way
Open your eyes, to this masquerade
Same old things in a different way
Day after day, day after day
Open your eyes
In the mean time, enjoy the parade
Enjoy the parade
I walk on by, based on a lie
And no one to retrace it
We’ll make a stand, middle class man
And we are gonna break it
They’d understand
This is gonna end
Wait for tonight
Light up the sky
Show me the way to a brighter day
Show me the way, show me the way
Open your eyes, to this masquerade
Same old things in a different way
Day after day, day after day
Open your eyes
In the mean time, enjoy the parade
There’s a new plan
So let’s join hands
There’s a new plan
So let’s join hands
There’s a new plan
So let’s join hands
Let’s join hands
Show me the way to a brighter day
Show me the way, show me the way
Open your eyes, to this masquerade
Same old things in a different way
Day after day, day after day
Open your eyes
Here comes dawn today
To light the candles burn for you
Here comes dawn again
To burn the both ends down
Here he comes again
Who wants to turn the world for you
Here he comes again
Who can't believe at all
Here comes your parade
Down all the miles for you
Here comes your parade
To light the flags for you
I come wide awake
To shake a dream from out of view
I come wide awake
To lay them all away
Here comes your parade
To turn the world for you
Here comes your parade
Down all the miles for you
Here comes your parade
Down all the miles for you
Down all the miles for you
Here comes your parade
Here comes your parade
To turn the world for you
Here comes your parade
Down all the miles of you

for a bright and clever hell
I think we've been forced to our knees but I can't tell
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
It's so hot in here
What are they trying to hatch?
We must not be frail, we must watch
Now that I'm out of touch with anger
now I have nothing to live up to
and I don't know when to stop joking
when I stop I hope I am with you
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes I forget my position
This parade of your life
And you invite me in
We are one
This is your prison
With me or without
I'm in you either way
And with you I'm a brave new man
But still nonetheless yet a man
Your parade
Nothing escapes your insatiable journey
You feel every thing that you see
Or you touch with your eyes
And with you I'm a brave new man
But still nonetheless yet a man
If you're reaching for this universe
Our love is like a sunny day
Or like a perfect song
We were almost there
Marching strong
While all these eyes
Are watching us
I'm scared inside
Cause the storm is surely coming
I can't wait to tell you I don't love you
It's been this way for quite some time
I know this is the wrong place but I
Have to tell you what's on my mind
I rained on your parade
Yeah took the smile off your face
With all the things I said, I said
We were moving forward
But now it's over
Tell me why it had to change
And girl it hurts to say it
Cause we're so close
But I just don't love you the same
Now everybody's looking at me
Telling me what a fool I am
Well baby I can't live a lie
I can't keep playing along with the band
I wish it hurt to tell you I don't love you
It's been this way for quite some time
I know this is the wrong place but I
Got to tell you what is on my mind
I rained on your parade
Took the smile off your face
With all the things I said, I said
We were moving forward
But now it's over
Tell me why it had to change
And girl it hurts to say this
Cause we're so close
But I just don't love you the same
I can't wait to tell you I don't love you
It's been this way for quite some time
I know this is the wrong place but I
Have to rain on your parade
I rained on your parade
Took the smile off your face
With all the things I said, I said
We were moving forward
But now it's over
Tell me why it had to change
And girl it hurts to say this
Cause we're so close
But I just don't love you the same
We were moving forward
But now it's over
Tell me why it had to change
And girl it hurts to say this
Cause we're so close
But I just don't love you the same
Yeah
I'm coming to town, get ready to leave
Pack up the things, roll up the sleeves
So different
Can't tell the things your money saved
Get in the car for the parade
Living like they never thought they ever could
Paupers begging like the forest turned to soot
Burning out the sun
Gonna get mine before the end is come
Liars practice tricks for ten percent of growth
Conspire, represent the people in their homes
When I cursed this day
My voice was caught in a parade
Burning from your tale
Last year you were placing bets
Bragging about your goals
Daddy’s little girl, is daddy’s secret.
How could he? It’s his baby girl.
What am I to do as your brother?
Tell you, you gotta run from this world.
Is it when you go stay away?
Run out the house, down the road.
We dreamed of Mexico since we were kids.
And she’s called your name ever since.
And this is your parade. This is your parade.
And don’t you run away, run away. Yea.
Take it straight down main. This is your parade.
And go dancing with the moon. You’ll love her.
This drinking life from that silver spoon.
Go run through a field of wild flowers.
It’s funny how the rain can make everything new.
And this is your parade. Yea, this is your parade.
And don’t you run away, run away. Yea.
Take it straight down main. This is your parade.
Sometimes I dream I find you in a town on a street with
no name.
You take me by the hand. And we waltz away. We waltz
away.
We go to your parade. And this is your parade.
Your parade. This is your parade.
And this is your parade. And don’t you run away, run
away. Yea.
