I'm a float in a summer parade

Verse (2)
F# B7 C#7
And I'm broke like a bad joke somebody's uncle told
F# B7 C#7
At a wedding reception in Nineteen Seventy Two
F# B7 C#7
Where a little boy under a table with cake in his hair
F# B7 C#7
Stared at the grown-up feet as they danced and swayed
F# B7 C#7
And his father laughed and talked on the long ride home
F# B7 C#7
And his mother laughed and talked on the long ride home
F# B7 C#7
And he thought about how everyone dies someday.
F# B7 C#7
And when tomorrow gets here where will yesterday be?
F# B7 C#7
And he fell asleep in his brand new winter coat.

F# B7 C#7
Buy me a shiny new machine that runs on lies and gasoline
F# B7 C#7
and all those batteries we stole from smoke alarms
F# B7 C#7
Disassembles my dispair, never took me anywhere
F# B7 C#7
It never once bought me a drink
