Lyric Hospitality On Parade

HOSPITALITY ON PARADE (Ron Mael) 3:58

Someday we ll have one extra coastline
We ll tire of the Atlantic
By then we ll be rid of your lot
A shot heard round the world will soon be shot, will soon be shot

Til then have some tea and tobacco
Hey Jenny meet your master
Be nice show him kindness and such
Be kind to our master

But a feeling is a-brewing that we don t need any masters
Cause we all can be a master and we all can be a king

We speak and we sing the way that you do
And showed you our hospitality on parade
But now we are we, we re no longer you
Tara to that hospitality on parade

Today you re going to find their descendants
In places all around you
You re faced with the easiest task
How best to act a king when always treated like a king

Lunch counters, at banks and the theatre
Kind help right there to serve you
Men selling, and girls selling too
And everyone s special

We all are someone special
Yes, we all are someone special
For we all are someone special
Where the customer is king

Whoever you are, whoever you bring
You ll find that hospitality on parade
However you look, you re always a king
Wherever there s hospitality on parade

I m special, you re special
He s special, she s special
We re all someone special
And i am the king

(CHORUS)

Whoever you are, whoever you bring
You ll find that hospitality on parade
However you look, you re always a king
Wherever there s hospitality on parade
