100th Anniversary - Mighty Sparrow

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

Toronto to San Fernando

Everybody planning

To jump from Tuesday morning

'Til the very, very last band pass

It’s total mas

Sweet Calypso jammin'

Down by Salvatorie

Masquerade

In a place of glory

Dancin' through the city

Wailin' free and easy

Celebrate with me

The one hundred anniversary

It all began on that blessed day

When masa man took his chains away

Free at last from the plantation

Lord it was mas all over the land

Beatin' box and dust bin

Dress up in

Wavin' sticks and branches

the circumstances

Generate a happy state

We goin' to celebrate with

Pan in all its glory

Ragin' through the city

Pan as ringin' sweetly

Bass do drive you crazy

Joy and jubilation

This joyous vocation

Celebrate with me

The one hundred anniversary

From J’Ouvert

When we start to wail

Clear the way

Let me shake me tail

Jump and

Don’t slow down the place

Heat

Fire in the place

Keep the iron ringing

And a million voices singin'

Every creed and color

Dancing one another

Serenadin' on the street

The heat, the music so sweet

The man see party

Everybody happy

The one hundred anniversary

When the Heavy Jook Jook

Or the Fatty Boom Boom

Juicy like a

Rolling with the rhythm

Sweet Calypso jammin'
