Verse 1
The kids were shouting let us out
And their parents did then two years then three years
Then show time and now they're making rock and roll
Those kids are making progress now
They say hear us out in every town
They do it one mile by one mile at a time
Refrain 1
Though it seems like every time
I get a little bit closer to what I want
I land further away
From where and when I was a little bit younger
Well if you don't know how the cadence goes we say...
Chorus
This parade still marches on
Louder than it ever was
Right Left Right come on
Come on get up and just follow the tempo
where streets filled with people sing
On and on and on through the town
The beat goes on
Verse 2
The kids are yelling play that song
that I heard that onceI don't know what it's called
or how it goes but it's all the same to me
The girls are screaming let us in
because we're what you want to solve all your problems
for tonight Because you're just so rock and roll
Refrain 2
Though it seems like every time
I get a little bit closer to what I want
I land further away
From where and when I was a little bit younger
If you still don't know the way we roll we go...
(Repeat Chorus)

Come on get up and just follow the tempo
