Our Parade is a crunchy, guitar-driven indie-pop tune with a heroic bass track, some driving piano and synthy goodness.
It's been a long and strange, lonely time in so many ways for the past year. I wanted to express some hope and joy in what's possible, in the form of a plea from one lover to another, and to revel in the wonders of each other.
Lyrics
Do you think we can?
Can I be your man?
Will you stay with me your whole life span?
Please let it be
We’ve got things to see,
what will we be?
I‘ll count you in, this jazz ain’t free
1. 2. 3.
And if we start to fade, we’ll laugh and spark and fall apart
as we go on parade, the one the universe must start
I’ve got plans for you and your petting zoo
We’ll free them all when we are through
we’ll be kind and carefree
Put your fears aside in formaldehyde
no looking back with blinkered eyes
Stay with me
And if we start to fade, we’ll laugh and spark and fall apart
as we go on parade, the one the universe must start
I have a plan, just hold my hand
the world won’t care we’ll soon be gone,
we’ll disappear into the sun
You’re my gleaming star, my caviar, my top-down, black stealth flying car
you’re my fur-lined glove, I can’t get enough
I asked the moon is this thing love?
I need you free
And if we start to fade, we’ll laugh and spark and fall apart
as we go on with our parade,
the one the universe must start
I have a plan, just hold my hand
the world won’t care we’ll soon be gone,
we’ll disappear into the sun
