Elliot Smith - Rose Parade lyrics

They asked me to come down and watch the parade To march down the street like the Duracell bunny With a wink and a wave from the cavalcade Throwing out candy that looks like money To people pa**ing 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 shouting and pushing and saying And I traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar A ridiculous marching band started playing Got me singing along with some kind of 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? Trumpet has obviously been drinking Because he's f**ing 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 sh** 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?
