mardi gras..the greatest time of year
drinks all around..nothing to fear
everyone around was having fun
even though ice blocked out the sun

least did i know and to my surprise
right across the street in front of my eyes..
yells and cheers could be heard
"flasher!" was the firery word

everyone laughed and cried with glee
so i grabbed my friends for all to see
with a few "pardon me..excuse me.."
the crowd parted like the red sea

what was so funny to cause such a ruckis?
my laughter soon faded to pure disgust
when i saw a man with his shirt above his head
acting like a readneck but totally purebred

wiggling his belly yelling "throw me something mister!"
the beads that hung around his neck were swinging with glister
as i thought to myself, what is this man doing? is he crazy?
just watching him made me gringe and kind of hazy

slowly his shirt came down in time to catch a big string of beads
i thought, "a shower and a hair cut..yep thats what he needs.."
then he looked straight at me, gave a coy smile while grabbing another beer
as i screamed in disgust, " dad!! what are you doing here? "
