GEORGIE JAMES lyrics : "Cake Parade"

The sun is up looks like a perfect day
to put our soldiers on a cake parade
we can line them up and march them down the hall

where they can play at guns
and we don't have to look at all


another sailor sleeping well today
another mother misses her lonely son's birthday
his bed is empty not sure where he'd gone

with his all stars
and nirvana t-shirt on


and if we try to raise their memory
you know it makes no difference
they'll send our boys for boot camp fun

and teach them to be men

if the sun could shine

on us always we'd go blind
but for all the rain in sight
you know i wouldn't mind


the sun is gone looks like a perfect day
to put our soldiers in an early grave

we can line them up and lay them on the lawn
with all their purple hearts
and badges of courage on


and if we try to raise their memory
you know it's only second best

to all the boys who never will
who never will be men


if the sun could shine
on us always we'd go blind
but for all the rain in sight

you know i wouldn't mind

if the sun could shine

on us always we'd be fine
and just to see him one more time
you know i wouldn't mind


we'll send you hands of shining stars
so you can fill your pretty globe

and navigate the seashell graves
and safely
find your way home
