Slum Parade Lyrics - Singles - Strings Of Atlas

Alright now 

Ha ha ha 

Here they come, just over the way in their tiny little shiny car 

Some people call them the users and others just call them fun 

They've got their headphones on and they're counting their cash 

They're laughing in your face while they're shaking their ass 

They've got a whole lot of garbage that they think is cool 

But the sexy little thing inside ain't so beautiful 

Pretty hate machine, leading them on 

Pretty fake machine, leading them on 

Pretty hate machine, leading them on 

Pretty fake machine, leading them on 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

Here come some more just over the way, with their tired old swaggered walk 

Thinking that they run the world, but they just run their mouth 

They love to talk 

Their fancy shoes just covered in mud, and the people that were under their heel 

So much empty space in their cranium, so much time to kill 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

I'm the jester, I'm the joker, I'm a creature in the slum parade 

I'm the jester, I'm the joker, I'm a creature in the... 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

In the slum parade 

(ha ha ha) 

(incoherent voices and police sirens)
