The kids were shouting "Let us out!"
And their parents did
Then 2 years, then 3 years

Then showtime and now they're making rock n roll
Those kids are making progress now
They're saying "Hear us out!" in every town

They do it 1 mile by 1 mile at a time

Though it seems like every time I get a little bit closer

To what I want I land further away from where and when I was a little bit younger
Well, this year don't know how cadence goes
We say:


This parade still marches on
Louder than it ever was

Right, left, right, c'mon
C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Where streets filled with people

Sing on and on and on through the town
The beat goes on


The kids are yelling "Play the song
That I heard that once!
I don't know what it's called or how it goes

But it's all the same to me."
The girls are screaming "Let us in
Because were what you want to solve all your problems for tonight

Because you're just so rock 'n' roll."

Though it seems like every time I get a little bit closer

To what I want I land further away from where and when I was a little bit younger
If you still don't know the way we roll
We go:


This parade still marches on
Louder than it ever was

Right, left, right, c'mon
C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Where streets filled with people

They sing on and on and on through the town
The beat goes on


(Whoo)
Let's get back to sharing this place and the floor
Left, right, left, c'mon

C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Where streets filled with people
They sing on, on, they sing and on and on and on

The beat goes on
