Rose Parade (Live)

You asked me to come down and watch the parade

To march down the street like the Duracell bunny

A weekend away from the calvalcade

Throwing out candy that looks like money

To people passing by that all seem to be going the other way

Said won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

Tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar

People were talking and shouting and pushing and saying

I traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar

Ridiculous marching band started playing

Got me singing along to some halfhearted victory song

Won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

Oh, won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

Oh, won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

The trumpet has obviously been drinking

'Cause he's fucking up even the simplest lines

I'd say it's a sight that's quite worth seeing

It's just that everyone's interest is stronger than mine

When they clean the street, I'll be the only shit that's left behind

Won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

Won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?

Oh, won't you follow me down to the Rose Parade?
