Holiday Parade

if you never wanna hear from again
just keep pushing me for more.
I already told you I meant everything I said;
you’re lucky we’re still talking at all.
don’t come to me when you’re falling apart;
I won’t be there to hold your hand.
don’t include me in your holidays;
leave me out of all your plans.
get your hand out of my pocket
I don’t owe you anything.
think all’s forgiven and forgotten
‘cause you wanna wear your ring.
showing me off to your family
like a trophy on a string.
You think I’m here for your convenience;
well, it doesn’t work that way.
maybe you should think about the company you keep.
while you’re at it, take a look at yourself
I don’t wanna be in your Sunday parade
when you need a friendly flag to wave.
sitting next to you in this bullshit charade
I’m so ashamed of myself.
get your hand out of my pocket
I don’t owe you anything.
think all’s forgiven and forgotten
‘cause you wanna wear your ring.
showing me off to your family
like a trophy on a string.
You think I’m here for your convenience,
well it doesn’t work that way.
don’t come to me when you’re falling apart;
I won’t be there to hold your hand
I’m going to keep my reservations.
I’ve got plans of my own.
get your hand out of my pocket
I don’t owe you anything.
think all’s forgiven and forgotten
‘cause you wanna wear your ring.
showing me off to your family
like a trophy on a string.
You think I’m here for your convenience,
well it doesn’t work that way.
I don’t wanna be in your parade.
How can you ask me for anything?
