Cake Parade

歌詞

The sun is up looks like a perfect day To put our soldiers on a cake parade We can line them up and march them down the hall Where they can play at guns And we don't have to look at all Another sailor sleeping well today Another mother misses her lonely son's birthday His bed is empty not sure where he'd gone With his all stars And nirvana t-shirt on And if we try to raise their memory You know it makes no difference They'll send our boys for boot camp fun And teach them to be men If the sun could shine On us always we'd go blind But for all the rain in sight You know i wouldn't mind The sun is gone looks like a perfect day To put our soldiers in an early grave We can line them up and lay them on the lawn With all their purple hearts And badges of courage on And if we try to raise their memory You know it's only second best To all the boys who never will Who never will be men If the sun could shine On us always we'd go blind But for all the rain in sight You know i wouldn't mind If the sun could shine On us always we'd be fine And just to see him one more time You know i wouldn't mind We'll send you hands of shining stars So you can fill your pretty globe And navigate the seashell graves And safely Find your way home
