96 As you catch fire
Looking every inch a man
Nothing moves you like desire
Catch him if you can
It's 101 out in the sun
And 99 here in the shade
There's no guarantee the end won't rain
On your parade
Put him in a uniform
Run his train right off the rails
Fly him to the moon and back
Lock him in a foreign jail
Nothing throws you off his track
You're running like a renegade
No one guarantees the end won't rain
On your parade
There's time for everything
And yours is here at last
You set the scene
You wrote the script
You bought the casting couch
You chose the cast
For the greatest story ever told
You read all the magazines
And you hear the classroom talk
You sit and watch the silver screen
And you learn a woman's walk
You practice mischief with a makeup heart
You dramatize your hair
You wonder what it's like to wake up
And find him sleeping there
Now it seems the race is on
Now the start has been delayed
There's no guarantee the end won't rain
On your parade
(There's no guarantee the end won't rain)
On your parade
(There's no guarantee the end won't rain)
On your parade
(There's no guarantee the end won't rain)
On your parade
(There's no guarantee the end won't rain)
On your parade
(There's no guarantee the end won't rain)
On your parade
