Federation Lyrics by Lord Kitchener

1959

This is federation
What a big occasion
Now we are united
And can't be divided
With this little combination
Soon we will declare a nation

[Chorus]
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
So everybody let's be social
Jump around and play carnival
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival

I approve Grenada
St Vincent, Antigua
Bring in Demerara
We want back Bermuda
This is what we always wanted
Now we will be more protected

[Chorus]
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
So! everybody let's be social
Jump around and play carnival
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival

Barbados, Jamaica
St. Kitts and St. Lucia
Bring them from all over
Even Dominica
Honduras will join us later
Together with Demerara

[Chorus]
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
So everybody let's be social
Jump around and play carnival
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival

And now it is final
Trinidad is capital
The islands will follow
The land of calypso
Let us vote in the near future
Everyone will be at leisure

[Chorus]
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
Ahh everybody let's be social
Jump around and play carnival
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival

Welcome, princess Margaret
You come to pay us a visit
You are the main attraction
At this federation
It is our bonding duty
Yes, to entertain royalty

[Chorus]
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
So! everybody let's be social
Jump around and play carnival
(chant) oh bacchanal, play carnival
