“Rainy Day Parade” Don’t rain on my Parade, Barbara Streisand

I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer
Nobody, no nobody is gonna rain on my parade!

I took inspiration for this song directly from the title and thought about a rain cloud over a parade. The parade initially started as a standard American parade with a girl, a boy, a pageant queen, and a mayor. Then, I got inspired by a circus parade, and so this parade is filled with a menagerie of people, animals, and sideshow characters.
