In A Parade Lyrics


Paul Simon In A Parade

[Verse 1]
Some nights the ER is quiet as an EKG
But tonight it feels like every broken bone
Tonight it feels like every wounded soul
Is filling out a form or on the phone

[Chorus]
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
Can't talk to you now, I'm in a parade
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
[Refrain]
Diagnosis: schizophrenic
Prognosis: guarded
Medication: Seroquel
Occupation: Street Angel

[Verse 2]
I drank some orange soda, then I drank some grape
I wear a hoodie now to cover my mistake
My head's a lollipop, my head is a lollipop
My head's a lollipop and everyone wants to lick it
I wear a hoodie now so I won't get a ticket
I write my verse for the universe, that's who I am

[Chorus]
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
I can't talk now, I'm in a parade
Can't talk to you now, I'm in a parade

[Refrain]
Diagnosis: schizophrenic
Prognosis: guarded
Medication: Seroquel
Occupation: Street Angel
