When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city to see a marching band. He said, "Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" He said "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?" Because one day I leave you, a phantom to lead you in the summer, to join the black parade."

Dont tell me not to live, Just sit and putter, Life's candy and the sun's A ball of butter. Dont bring around a cloud To rain on my parade. Don't tell me not to fly-- I've simply got to. If someone takes a spill, It's me and not you. Who told you you're allowed To rain on my parade?

I'll take the obvious...
76 trombones led the big parade,
110 cornets right behind.

In your Easter bonnet
With all the [somethings] on it
You'll be the [something something]
In the Easter parade
robot parade
robot parade
robots obey what the children say
They Might Be Giants
Before the parade passes by
I've go to go and taste Saturday's high life.

I love a parade
the tramping of feet
I love every beat
I hear of the drum
Dont tell me not to live,
Just sit and putter,
Life's candy and the sun's
A ball of butter.
Dont bring around a cloud
To rain on my parade.
Don't tell me not to fly--
I've simply got to.
If someone takes a spill,
It's me and not you.

To rain on my parade?
OK, this is to replace this:
--I thought of another one recently while we were setting up the king-size bed given to us by a friend:
From "The Quiet Man" (1952)
"Is that a bed or a, a parade ground? Och, a man would have to be a sprinter to catch his wife in a bed like that."--
which isn't a song lyric at all, but I posted it before I had read the game instructions. :-p
Pink elephants...
Pink elephants...
Pink elephants on parade,
Here they come,
Hippity-hoppity.
They're here, they're there!
Pink elephants everywhere,
Here they come,
Hippity-hoppity.
Pink elephants...
Pink elephants...
