My Parade

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

On my parade?

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

My parade?

I remember growing up as a youngin'

I would think about death so often

Never thought I'd live to see today

All the friends I thought would be here

Passed away, left me in deep tears

Never thought that I could find a way

Many battles I fought and lost them

Many hearts I stole and crossed them

Never thought I'd give my own this way

Sunny skies don't come around often

Most nights I'm cold and coughin'

That's why I'm marching loud today

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

On my parade?

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

My parade?

I've been thinkin' 'bout leaving for the summеrtime

Find a place when I could gеt a little sunshine

'Cause I'm tired of all this shade

And I was thinkin' how I could get away too

On the low, sneak away, I could play cool

Even on the hottest day

I was sitting here feeling exhausted

At work and can't deal with my boss shit

I wonder why they treat us all the same

Good advice don't come around often

Most times I talk with caution

I could see storm clouds from miles away

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

Why you keep raining down on my parade?

My parade?

Why you keep raining down?

Don't keep me waiting around

If you're just coming to rain down on my parade, on my parade

Why should I keep waiting around if it's just gon' be raining now?
