Before the parade passes by
[Sebelum parade lewat]
I'm gonna go and taste Saturday's high life
[Aku akan merasakan kehidupan malam Sabtu yang seru]
before the parade passes by
[Sebelum parade lewat]
I'm going to get some life back into my life
[Aku akan mengembalikan semangat hidupku]

I'm ready to move out in front
[Aku siap untuk tampil ke depan]
I've had enough of just passing by life
[Aku sudah cukup hanya lewat saja dalam hidup]
with the rest of them
[dengan yang lainnya]
with the best of them
[dengan yang terbaik di antara mereka]
I can hold my head up high
[Aku bisa mengangkat kepalaku tinggi-tinggi]

I've got to go again
[Aku harus pergi lagi]
I've got to drive again
[Aku harus berkendara lagi]
I've got to feel my heart coming alive again
[Aku harus merasakan hatiku hidup lagi]
Before the parade passes by!
[Sebelum parade lewat!]

Look at the crowd up ahead
[Lihat kerumunan di depan]
Listen and heard that brass harmony growing
[Dengar dan rasakan harmoni alat musik tiup yang semakin kuat]
Look at the crowd up ahead
[Lihat kerumunan di depan]
Pardon me if my old spirit's showing
[Maafkan aku jika semangat lamaku terlihat]
All of those lights over there
[Semua lampu-lampu itu]
Seems to be telling me where I'm going
[Sepertinya memberi tahu arah tujuanku]

When the whistles blow
[Ketika peluit berbunyi]
And the cymbals crash
[Dan simbal berbenturan]
And the sparklers light the sky
[Dan kembang api menerangi langit]
I'm going to raise the roof
[Aku akan meriahkan suasana]
I'm going to carry on
[Aku akan terus melanjutkan]
Give me an old trombone
[Berikan aku trombon tua]
Give me an old baton
[Berikan aku baton tua]
Before the parade passes by
[Sebelum parade lewat]

[(Interlude)]

Before the parade passes by
[Sebelum parade lewat]
Listen and hear that brass harmony growing
[Dengar dan rasakan harmoni alat musik tiup yang semakin kuat]
Before the parade passes by
[Sebelum parade lewat]
I'm going to get some life back into my life
[Aku akan mengembalikan semangat hidupku]
I'm ready to move out in front
