Verse:    
Diamonds cut, diamonds cut for the carrots    
Plaster of paris, the floats fill up the street    
     
And the beauty queens, beauty queens with the white gloves    
All sick from the night clubs, they wave with pageantry, pageantry    
     
Chorus:    
Oh my my oh hey hey    
Here it comes, the big parade    
Marching bands and barricades    
Make way, for the big parade    
     
Verse:    
Canvas covered, canvas covered in resin    
The violent men who dance the blood ballet    
And the bookies say, bookies say it's the 3rd round    
Oh when louie will go down, if he don't there's hell to pay, and hell to raise    
     
Chorus:    
And oh my my oh hey hey    
Here he comes, the welterweight    
Take a dive, for goodness sake    
Or say goodbye to the welterweight    
     
Verse:    
Catholic priest, catholic priest in a crisis    
He's torn between romance and jesus, who will win the civil war    
     
And he says I'm in love, I'm in love with a woman    
Yea this is my confession, I'm leaving I can't a priest anymore, anymore    
     
Chorus:    
And oh my my oh hey hey    
There he goes, the man of faith    
     
Left the church for a fiance    
Let him love, the man of faith    
     
     
Verse:    
T.v. cameras, t.v. cameras and stage hands    
American bandstand, electric guitars    
     
And he's singin songs, singin songs for the lonely    
All the girls with the room keys, they know all his words by heart, by heart and they all sing    
     
Interlude:    
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me    
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see    
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me    
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see    
     
Lovely girl won't you stay, oh oh ohoh    
     
Chorus:    
Oh my my oh hey hey    
Here she comes by saving grace    
Burn the car and save the plates    
She's arrived, my saving grace
