Season for Carnival

Carnival time here in this land
An old familiar custom you will understand
Everyone looking so bright and gay
Calypso songs from the break of day

Carnival starting
People lineup watching
As the bands go dancing by
Pease and rice cooking
Curry goat and lamb stewing

This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival

Lovely women from far and near
Come to Trinidad this time of year
Young lovers strolling through the town
Caressed by the music that's all around

Carnival starting
People lineup watching
As the bands go dancing by
Pease and rice cooking
Curry goat and lamb stewing

This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival

Lady's bracelets in the market ringing
Little children dancing and singing
All the happy faces you'll see
Getting ready for the jamboree

Carnival starting
People lineup watching
As the bands go dancing by
Pease and rice cooking
Curry goat and lamb stewing

This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
This is the season for carnival
