Phil Collins
The Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging (Live from The Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles, CA, 24th January 1975)
“It's the last great adventure left to mankind!”
Screams a drooping lady
Offering her dream dolls at less than extortionate prices
And as the notes and coins are taken out
I'm taken in, to the factory floor

For the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
All ready to use
It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
I just need a fuse

Got people stocked in every shade
Must be doing well with trade
Stamped, addressed, in odd fatality
That еvens out their personality

With profit potеntial marked by a sign
I can recognize some of the production line
No bite at all in labour bondage
Just wrinkled wrappers or human bandage

It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
All ready to use
It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
I just need a fuse
The hall runs like clockwork
Their hands mark out the time
Empty in their fullness like a frozen pantomime

Everyone's a sales representative
Wearing slogans in their shrine
Dishing out fail-safe superlative
Brother John is No. 9

It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
All ready to use
It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
I just need a fuse

And the decor on the ceiling has planned out their future day
I see no sign of free will, so I guess I have to pay
Pay my way for the Grand Parade
For the Grand Parade, for the Grand Parade

It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
All ready to use
It's the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging
I just need a fuse

Grand Parade
Grand Parade
Grand Parade
Grand Parade
Thank you very much

This particular point in the story of Hero Rael is moving underground into an almost perfect reconstruction of the streets of New York City
And begins to recollect of his childhood memories he begins to think we, his first romantic adventures
And how bought this to book tilted from discount bookstore “Erogenous Zones & Difficulties in Overcoming… — Finding Them”
This first romantic adventure after many months of study of the for mention book
He mastered these emotions from initial arousal to completion and a mere 78 seconds leaving to opposite number not literally titillated
And he was left prickly porcupine
