Come on, take me to the Mardi Gras,
Where the people sing and play,
Where the music is elite and there's dancing in the street,
Both night and day.

Additional quotes by Paul Simon

It's easy to be generous when you're on a roll
It's hard to be grateful when you're out of control

When I was a little boy, (when I was just a boy)
And the devil would call my name (when I was just a boy)
I'd say "Now who do,
Who do you think you're fooling?"

Peace like a river ran through the city
Long past the midnight curfew
We sat starry-eyed We were satisfied...
You can beat us with wires You can beat us with chains
You can run out your rules
But you know you can't outrun the history train

Come on, take me to the Mardi Gras, Where the people sing and play, Where the music is elite and there's dancing in the street, Both night and day. - Paul Simon
