[Verse 1]
Be prepared for the bacchanal
100 years of Carnival
Anywhere you happen to pass
You could hear people planning mas

From New York to 'Frisco

Everybody planning
To jump from Tuesday morning
’Til the very, very last band pass
It's total mas

Sweet Calypso jammin'
Down by Salvatorie

In a place of glory
Dancin’ through the city
Wailin' free and easy

When masa man took his chains away
Free at last from the plantation
