[intro 2x]
D A E G
D A E G they asked me to come down and watch the parade
D A E G and to march down the street like the duracell bunny
D A E G with a wink and a wave from the cavalcade
D A E G throwing out candy that looks like money
F# B E G F# to people passing by that all seem to be going the other way
D A E G said won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
Continues after the ad
D A E G tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar
D A E G people were shouting and pushing and saying
D A E G and when i traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar
D A E G a ridiculous marching band started playing
F# B E G F# and got me singing along with some half-hearted victory song
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G the trumpet has obviously been drinking
D A E G because he's fucking up even the simplest lines
D A E G i'd say it's a sight that's quite worth seeing
D A E G it's just that everyone's interest is stronger than mine
F# B E G F# and when they clean the street i'll be the only shit that's left behind
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
