Maybe it's just age or a thousand other fears
That took me back tonight to my early carnival years
I can see the period moving like the source of the old Golf Stream
Oh, what a lovely dream
Adolescent lust was begging for a start
As I sidestepped those brothers with their sacred hearts
Yep, those two weeks a year, it was all about sin
Follies chasing death, you can count me in
There's flannel man with a golden ring
And a cruel, north man, smells like kerosene
Here comes the flow of a con of a queen
I wanna wrap her in serpentine
Hands up high, eyes open wide
Throw me something, mister, that's why you ride
Cracker jacks with tares inside
Kneel beyond our wildest dreams
Foots and masks that are too '
Some things really are the way they seem
Beads and confetti were littering the air
When the queen looked at me with her Ava Gardner stare
Though tomorrow would bring ashes and penance by the tongue
Mardi Gras is where I learned to have fun
There's flannel man with a golden ring
And a cruel, north man, smells like kerosene
I'm still in love with the con of a queen
I wanna wrap her in serpentine
Still wanna wrap her in serpentine
It was the devil!

Jimmy Buffett (1946-2023) è stato un cantautore, musicista e scrittore statunitense, noto per il suo stile musicale definito "Parrothead", che fonde elementi di country, folk, rock e calypso. Nato a Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett ha trascorso la sua infanzia in diverse località degli Stati Uniti prima di stabilirsi a Key West, Florida, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '70. Il suo successo è legato a brani come "Margaritaville", "Come Monday" e "Cheeseburger in Paradise", che hanno reso Buffett un'icona della cultura americana, associata a un'atmosfera rilassata e paradisiaca. Oltre alla musica, Buffett ha scritto diversi libri di narrativa e saggistica, tra cui il best-seller "A Pirate Looks at Forty". La sua musica e la sua personalità hanno ispirato una vasta community di fan, i "Parrotheads", che celebrano la vita semplice e l'amore per le vacanze. Buffett è morto nel 2023 all'età di 76 anni.
