Freak Parade

(album: Todd Rundgren's Utopia - 1974)

I never was bothered by bad dreams
They never made me afraid
But then I never did dream I'd wake up
And find me in the freak parade

I guess I had to find out the hard way
I shouldn't have been so proud
'Cause here I'm the main attraction
Of every giggle in the crowd

So I got to take my place in the freak parade
See my face in the freak parade
Get off the sidewalk!

In a world full of freaks
You can creep, you can crawl
But the world's biggest freak
Is the one with no balls

You know you shouldn't poke fun at strangers
Or pity their case at all
'Cause there are lots of friends and lovers
That take it kind of personal

You might appreciate our position
Don't laugh at our freaky ways
You might find yourself tomorrow
Marching in the freak parade

You better take your place in the freak parade
See your face in the freak parade
Get off the sidewalk!

In a world full of freaks
You can creep, you can crawl
But the world's biggest freak
Is the one with no balls
