Rose Parade [explicit] Lyrics - Elliott Smith

You asked me to come down and watch the parade 

to march down the street like the Duracell bunny 

but we get away from the cavalcade 

throwing out candy that looks like money 

to people passing by 

they'd all seem to be going the other way 

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

Tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar 

People were shouting and pushing and saying 

they'd traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Ridiculous marching band started playing 

got me singing along 

with some half-hearted victory song 

So 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 

You 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 

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