A crowd slowly creeping in Flocks of let loose nobody’s Interested only in good times Pretty woman Sleek men Beads cups potatoes and cabbage Where every minute is a party Thundering on every block Horns of 18 wheelers Floats lugged around Marching bands of different calibers Music weakening worries Life couldn’t get better then that moment For once a stranger is a neighbor And what you don’t catch Will surely be a laugh As someone else gets pelted Kisses from women having fun Men try to loosen the ladies Flowers for kisses Dance moves from grandma And without a doubt The kiddos have more then enough to do Throw me sumthin mista Throw me sumthin sista An echo of calls Hungry for more fun
Might not be Mardi Gras but the Irish-Italian Parade was fun and close enough
