The Soft Parade

When I was back there in seminary school

There was a person there

Who put forth the proposition

That you can petition the Lord with prayerPetition the lord with prayer

Petition the lord with prayer

You cannot petition the lord with prayerCan you give me sanctuary?

I must find a place to hide

A place for me to hideCan you find me soft asylum?

I can't make it anymore

The man is at the doorPeppermint, miniskirts, chocolate candy

Champion sax and a girl named Sandy

There's only four ways to get unraveled

One is to sleep and the other is travel, da daOne is a bandit up in the hills

One is to love your neighbor 'til

His wife gets home

Catacombs, nursery bonesWinter women

Growing stones

Carrying babies

To the riverStreets and shoes

Avenues

Leather riders

Selling newsThe monk bought lunch

Ha ha, he bought a little

Yes, he did

Woo!This is the best part of the trip

This is the trip, the best part

I really like

What'd he say?Yeah

Yeah, right

Pretty good, huh

Huh!Yeah, I'm proud to be a part of this number

Successful hills are here to stay

Everything must be this way

Gentle streets where people playWelcome to the soft parade

All our lives we sweat and save

Building for a shallow graveMust be something else we say

Somehow to defend this place

Everything must be this way

Everything must be this way, yeahThe soft parade has now begun

Listen to the engines hum

People out to have some fun

A cobra on my leftLeopard on my right, yeah

The deer woman in a silk dress

Girls with beads around their necks

Kiss the hunter of the green vestWho has wrestled before

With lions in the night

Out of sightThe lights are getting brighter

The radio is moaning calling to the dogs

There are still a few animals

Left out in the yardBut it's getting harder to describe sailors

To the underfed

Tropic corridor, tropic treasure

What got us this far to this mild equator?We need someone or something new

Something else to get us through, yeah, c'mon

Callin' on the dogs

Callin' on the dogsOh, it's gettin' harder

Callin' on the dogs

Callin' in the dogs

Callin' all the dogs

Callin' on the GodsYou gotta meet me

Too late, baby

Slay a few animals

At the crossroads

Too lateAll in the yard

But it's gettin' harder

By the crossroads

You gotta meet meOh, we're goin', we're goin great at the edge of town

Tropic corridor, tropic treasure

Havin' a good time got to come along

What got us this far to this mild equator?Outskirts of the city

You and I we need someone new

Somethin' new

Somethin' else to get us throughBetter bring your gun

Better bring your gun

Tropic corridor, tropic treasure

We're gonna ride and have some funWhen all else fails

We can whip the horse's eyes

And make them sleep

And cry

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
