Lyric discussion by estee27 

i can't believe no one has posted anything about such a great song. this is definately one of my favorite doors songs. " You cannot petition the lord with prayer!...All our lives we sweat and save, building for a shallow grave. Must be something else we say, somehow to defend this place. Everything must be this way, Everything must be this way, yeah, welcome to the soft parade." - i think this whole part, pieced together, shows how you can't change the way life is through prayer and life is a ridiculous parade. other than that, these lyrics make no sense. anyways, its a happy song and its basically about having a good time.
