Lyrics

They 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 Said, "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 And traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar Ridiculous marching band started playing Got me singing along With some half-hearted victory song Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade? Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade? Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade? The trumpeter's 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 Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade? Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade? Won't you follow me down to the Rose parade?
