Culture Vulture Chords & Lyrics - Morning Parade

[Ab]Numbers turned to money ain't it funny how we're built
To spend the wh[Db]ole of our lives running number crunching on assumption
There's r[Fm]eason in repeating rhymes and throwing keys and swapping wives as
[Db]Long as it's within the privacy of our own private lives

[Ab]Stuck with no direction seeking everyone's attention
All for [Db]his or her affection for life cover and collection
No V[Fm]iagra, no erection, no insurance, no protection
And no c[Db]ure and no prevention did you ever think to mention

The s[Ab]maller house, the smaller town where banal gossip does the rounds
[Db]Giant fish in tiny ponds where nothings really going on
And e[Fm]veryone knows everyone and everybody's goings on
And e[Db]veryone wants everyone to try the fuck to get along

[Ab]A. N. [E]X. I. [Ab]E. T. [Dbm]Why?

The b[Ab]ooze'll cut you loose if even for a day or 2 or 3
Or [Db]4 or 5 or 6 or 10 you'll never be the same again
[Fm]People won't remember you, your children and your children's too
As [Db]we elope in cars and planes to dig the hole for their remains

[Ab]A. N. [E]X. I. [Ab]E. T. [Dbm]Why do I f[Fm]eel so in[Eb]ane and [Db]so upt[Dbm]ight?
[Ab]A. N. [E]X. I. [Ab]E. T. [Dbm]Why do I f[Fm]eel so in[Eb]ane and [Db]so upt[Dbm]ight?

I hope I sleep t[Ab]onight [Db]
I hope I sleep t[Ab]onight [Db]
I hope I sleep t[Fm]onight [Eb]
I hope I sleep t[Db]onight

So t[Ab]hen you change the channel turn the cheek and look the other way
Your l[Db]ife now on hiatus checks the status of your friends who say
"It's [Fm]terrible about those banks. It's terrible but to be frank
It's t[Db]errible those people died, let's see what's on the other side."

And [Ab]no one cares cause no one minds cause everybody's filled their time
With e[Db]verything that's going on and on and on and on and on
And [Fm]on until the end of time 'til we're gone and the blood runs dry
[Db]Growing up and getting older just another culture vulture.
