Don't tell me not to live just sit and putter
|
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
|
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
|
|
Don't tell me not to fly I've simply got to
|
If someone takes a spill
|
It's me and not you
|
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade
|
|
CHORUS:
|
I'll march my band out
|
I'll beat my drum
|
And if I'm fanned out
|
Your turn at bat sir
|
At least I didn't fake it
|
Hat sir, I guess I didn't make it
|
|
But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection
|
Or freckle on the nose of life's complexion
|
The cinder or the shiny apple of its eye
|
|
I gotta fly once, I gotta try once
|
Only can die once, right sir?
|
Love is juicy, juicy and you see
|
I've got to have my bite sir
|
|
Get ready for me love cause I'm a comer
|
I've simply got to march my heart's a drummer
|
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
|
|
I'm gonna live and live now
|
Get what I want I know how
|
One roll for the whole shebang
|
One throw that bell will go clang
|
Eye on the target and wham
|
One shot, one gunshot and bam
|
Hey Mr. Arnstein, here I am!
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Get ready for me love cause I'm a comer
|
I've simply got to march my heart's a drummer
|
Nobody, no nobody is gonna rain on my parade
|
