Funeral Dance Lyrics
In Amerigo, Carnival was as hallowed as Christmas itself, perhaps slightly more <br />
so.<br />
There was a meaning to it. See, Islanders did not put into words, yet which <br />
made it the authentic supreme day in the Kinjian calendar.<br />
<br />
Africa was marching down the main street of this little harbor town today.<br />
<br />
Africa, in undimmed black vitality, surging up out of centuries of island <br />
displacement, island slavery, island isolation, island ignorance.<br />
<br />

Africa, unquenchable in its burning love of life.<br />
<br />
Carnival was Africa Day in Amerigo.
