Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Mardi Gras lights on Bourbon Street, beads flyin’ high Folks in masks and feathers, parades rollin’ by But down in the bayou, we got a party crasher green A gator named Big Mouth, bigger than you’ve ever seen [Pre-Chorus] He’s chompin’ on gumbo and stealin’ jambalaya Scaring all the tourists from Lafayette to Thibodaux Got his tail slappin’ rhythms like a Cajun band’s fire Everybody’s laughin’ when they see that toothy show [Chorus] Big Mouth, Big Mouth, comin’ through the crowd Eatin’ all your food and roarin’ mighty loud Big Mouth, Big Mouth, runnin’ from the law Lettin’ the good times roll this Mardi Gras He’s a swamp-livin’ rascal, can’t keep him down Ain’t no stoppin’ him till he’s back in the brown Oh, Big Mouth, Big Mouth, you’re the king of this town [Verse] Well he hopped up on a float like he owned the place Throwin’ beads from that snout with a great big grin on his face Tourists scatter, snapping photos left and right Animal control’s on his tail, but he’s gone before the night [Pre-Chorus] Balconies shaking while zydeco’s playing He’s a four-legged party that no one saw comin’ People screaming, “Look out!” but he’s just swayin’ Ain’t a man in Louisiana that he’s runnin’ from, he’s just runnin’ [Chorus] Big Mouth, Big Mouth, comin’ through the crowd Eatin’ all your food and roarin’ mighty loud Big Mouth, Big Mouth, runnin’ from the law Lettin’ the good times roll this Mardi Gras He’s a swamp-livin’ rascal, can’t keep him down Ain’t no stoppin’ him till he’s back in the brown Oh, Big Mouth, Big Mouth, you’re the king of this town [Instrumental] [Bridge] When the moon’s high and the parades all sleep He sneaks back down the muddy creek His belly full of carnival treats, he fades away Tomorrow’s gossip in the French Quarter scene Legend grows of that giant green But Big Mouth’s home in the swamp ‘til the very next day [Repeat Chorus] Big Mouth, Big Mouth, comin’ through the crowd Eatin’ all your food and roarin’ mighty loud Big Mouth, Big Mouth, runnin’ from the law Lettin’ the good times roll this Mardi Gras He’s a swamp-livin’ rascal, can’t keep him down Ain’t no stoppin’ him till he’s back in the brown Oh, Big Mouth, Big Mouth, you’re the king of this town [Outro] He’s Big Mouth, Big Mouth, rowdy as they come From the heart of Louisiana, a Cajun conundrum Oh, Big Mouth, Big Mouth, cause a scene and run ‘Til next Mardi Gras rolls around, gator’s had his fun. [Rap] Let me take y’all down to the swamp with a story so mean About a gator named Big Mouth, Mardi Gras king He’s lurkin’ on the floats, crawlin’ off with the grub Got that tail on the track like a second line drum From the French Quarter nights to the swamps where he roam Animal control can’t catch him—no leash, no home He’s a menace to the crowd, but he’s lovin’ the fame Stealin’ plates, dodgin’ flashlights, goin’ wild in the game Big Mouth rule the bayou, no cage can confine He’s the beast in the beads, all the chaos combined Now raise ‘em up for the gator that nobody can tame ‘Cause when Big Mouth’s on the scene, he’s the soul of this flame. [Repeat Chorus][Group Vocals] Big Mouth, Big Mouth, comin’ through the crowd Eatin’ all your food and roarin’ mighty loud Big Mouth, Big Mouth, runnin’ from the law Lettin’ the good times roll this Mardi Gras He’s a swamp-livin’ rascal, can’t keep him down Ain’t no stoppin’ him till he’s back in the brown Oh, Big Mouth, Big Mouth, you’re the king of this town! [Outro]
