Newman, Randy - Jolly Coppers On Parade Lyrics
They're comin' down the street
They're comin' right down the middle
Look how they keep the beat
Why they're as blue as the ocean
How the sun shines down
Jolly Coppers On Parade
Here come the black-and-whites
Here come the motorcycles
Listen to those engines roar
Now they're doin' tricks for the children
Oh, they look so nice
Looks like angels have come down from Paradise
Jolly Coppers On Parade
That's the life for me
When I'm grown
That's what I want to be
They're comin' down the street
They're comin' right down the middle
Look how they keep the beat
Coming through the heart of the city
Oh, it's all so nice
Looks like angels have come down from Paradise
Jolly Coppers On Parade

Those flutes by the end of the song are pure gold. The song: a masterpiece.
This IS a big influence on The Nigel Purcell Trio.....Me and Nigel played this album to death when it came out...even if Punk had just landed.....it didn't matter...this is ageless class...and do check out The NIgel Purcell Trio track "still here" for the influence
Little Criminals was one of the best albums of the '70s. The word gets thrown around a lot but he is a musical genius.
Magical.
Newman was a lyrical genius back when the music industry still allowed musicians to write what they wanted.
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
I'm a copper, and a huge Newman fan. Play this at my wake
Hopefully not for a very very long time :)
Right down the middle!
I love Randy Newman. Am always discovering new lyrics on his old albums. You remember albums :-)
Great lyrics and composition!, real creativity shown here. Love this song.
Thank you!!
love the cartoon world image randy paints in this song
"As blue as the ocean." "Doing tricks for the children." God, irony AND the ultimate ideal all rolled into one plus musical arrangement joy - this is the kind of songwriting I aspire to.
And so on
My favorite Randy Newman song.
I've always loved this song.
