Street Party Fever
Classic soca party song at about 120 BPM: a blazing horn section, calypso guitar, bass and cowbell, with a male lead and a gang chorus shouting back. Joyful and carnival-ready, sung in English, about the whole street catching party fever.
Lyrics
Sun is dropping low behind the hillBut every window’s got a light that’s standing stillThen the baker starts to tap his heavy feetAnd the music starts to travel down the streetHey, can you feel the ground begin to shake?There’s a giant in the concrete wide awakeThrow the shutters open, let the neighbors seeWe’re the kings and queens of this jubileeCatch the feverEverybody’s moving to the soundCatch the feverTurning this whole town aroundCatch the feverWatch the magic coming throughCatch the feverNow it’s catching youOld man Miller’s got a whistle and a caneDoing spins like a kid out in the rainEvery doorway’s got a different kind of beatLike a million drums are walking on their feetGrab a hand and join the middle of the lineWe’re all running on a different kind of timeThere’s no strangers when the brass begins to playWe’re gonna dance until the breaking of the dayCatch the feverEverybody’s moving to the soundCatch the feverTurning this whole town aroundCatch the feverWatch the magic coming throughCatch the feverNow it’s catching youUp on the rooftops, down in the hallNobody’s staying behind the wallThe air is electric, the spirit is highWe’re writing our names all across the skyOne, two, three, go!Catch the feverEverybody’s moving to the soundCatch the feverTurning this whole town aroundCatch the feverWatch the magic coming throughCatch the feverNow it’s catching you
