Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh, here we go, Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh,
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
We got problems, we don't know how to solve them
Everywhere we go, we got some skeleton's that follow
We got baggage, you know we're gonna drag it
Everywhere we go, for everyone to see
And the broken hearts parade
And I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade, I've never been better then I am today
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
You got a question, how do we get it started?
I got an answer: let go of your heart and
Love it, live it, leave it and get into it
If you wanna start it, this is how you do it
And the broken hearts parade
And I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade and I've never been better then I am today
I used to lie awake at night and wonder when she's coming home
It used to be so hard to wake up everyday
The broken hearts parade
And we're putting our hearts out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade and I've never been better then I am today
March on to the soul
The beating of a broken heart
Stop put the rhythm to bed
To the beating of a broken heart
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
We got problems, we don't know how to solve them
Everywhere we go, we got some skeleton's that follow
We got baggage, you know we're gonna drag it
Everywhere we go, for everyone to see
And the broken hearts parade
And I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade, I've never been better then I am today
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
You got a question, how do we get it started?
I got an answer: let go of your heart and
Love it, live it, leave it and get into it
If you wanna start it, this is how you do it
And the broken hearts parade
And I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade and I've never been better then I am today
I used to lie awake at night and wonder when she's coming home
It used to be so hard to wake up everyday
The broken hearts parade
And we're putting our hearts out on display there's no,
Masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
The band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
Broken hearts parade and I've never been better then I am today
March on to the soul
The beating of a broken heart
Stop put the rhythm to bed
To the beating of a broken heart

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
yay 1st to comment
i think this song is about the death of an already dying relationship. and just going out and getting past the point of feeling broken
.. gerard way must be loling @ this song ..
lame.
i looove this song... i like the horns in it...very catchy
Beau05-hahahaa. Yeah, i can imagine mcr laughing at this song.
this song is pretty pathetic. "broken hearts parade"? "we're singing along, to the broken hearts parade"? ...
and that "dressed in black" part, hehe. "all black"
This is definately not a good song.
the lyrics are quite stupid, but you can't get them out of your head. just like " i just wanna live" i hated that song... but still it was spooking around in my head...
how in the world are these lyrics stupid?
i think its a good song
who knew trumpets and guitars could sound so good together
"who knew trumpets and guitars could sound so good together" have you never listened to ska music?
im pretty disappointed in this cd, im not gonna lie. i've been disappointed since after the young and the hopeless. the self titled was the fuckin shit, and they will probably never go back. im glad i downloaded this and didn't buy it. i'd have been kinda pissed.
well i like this cd... actually this is my favorite song ever. it's chessy but in a good way.
i'm pretty sure it's more of a " yeah, my heart is broken, i'm gonna tell the world, and have fun at the same time. and it'll feel good." something like that.
