Lyrics

Dim Light Parade
Cristopher Lucas



She was only thirteen
Daddy said, ?Come home straight from school!?
But he was just a fool you see
Cause thirteen never listens

Oh, come on it?s cozy
I read it in a magazine
I?m just goin? to the mall
And she?s gone

She follows the Dim Light Parade
Drinkin? whiskey with lemonade
She?s down the road and through the gutter again
?I?m too young to be an old maid
I can?t sit around all day
I?m a teenager now I ain?t gonna be afraid!?

Well he said, ?baby, you?re grounded,
Why can?t you be like all the other kids?
With a bow in your hair, flowers and a nice long dress??
She said, ?daddy what?s wrong with me? I?m a mess?

She follows the Dim Light Parade
His pants are low and his eyes are slayed
Her mind is blown from the cocaine
She can?t stop a rollin? train
She told her friends she?d never do it again
But that was before he?d had her made

Hoo hoo hoo yeah I?m OK

But you can?t stop a rollin? train
Yeah she follows the Dim Light Parade
Down and through the gutter again

Hoo hoo hoo yeah I?m OK
