Macy's Day Parade

by Green Day

Today's the Macy's Day parade.
The night of the living dead is on it's way...
with a credit report for duty call.
It's a lifetime guarantee.
Stuffed in a coffin 10% more free.
Red light special at the mausoleum.

Give me something that I need.
Satisfaction guaranteed to you.
What's the consolation prize?
Economy sized dreams of hope.

When I was a kid, I thought...
I wanted all the things that I haven't got.
Oh, but I learned the hardest way.
Then I realized what it took...
to tell the difference between thieves and crooks.
A lesson learned for me and you.

Give me something that I need.
Satisfaction guaranteed...

'Cause I'm thinkin about a brand new hope.
The one I've never known.
'Cause now I know it's all that I wanted.

What's the consolation prize?
Economy sized dreams of hope.
Give me something that I need.
Satisfaction guaranteed.

'Cause I'm thinkin' about a brand new hope.
The one I've never known.
And where it goes...

And I'm thinkin' about the only road.
The one I've never known.
And where it goes...

And I'm thinkin' about a brand new hope.
The one I've never known.
'Cause now I know it's all that I wanted.
