Green Day - Macy's Day Parade

"Macy's Day Parade" lyrics

Macy's Day Parade

[Verse 1]
Today's the Macy's Day Parade
The night of the living dead is on its way
With a credit report for duty call
It's a lifetime guarantee
Stuffed in a coffin "10% more free"
Red light special at the mausoleum

[Bridge]
Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed to you
What's the consolation prize?
Economy sized dreams of hope

[Verse 2]
When I was a kid I thought
I wanted all the things that I haven't got
Oh, I learned the hardest way
Then I realized what it took
To tell the difference between
Thieves and crooks
Lesson learned to me and you

[Chorus]
Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
Because I'm thinking about
A brand new hope
The one I've never known
'Cause now I know
It's all that I wanted

[Bridge + Chorus]
What's the consolation prize?
Economy sized dreams of hope
Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
Because I'm thinking about
A brand new hope
The one I've never known
And where it goes
And I'm thinking about
The only road
The one I've never known
And where it goes

Because I'm thinking about
A brand new hope
The one I've never known
'Cause now I know
It's all that I wanted
