[Verse 1: Seth MacFarlane]
I heard them sing 'Come to the Mardi Gras'
It was Rio in spring, time for Mardi Gras
I saw her there, confetti in her hair
Swept along by the throng, wasn't long till we met
When we kissed my heart beat faster, faster than a castanet

[Verse 2: Elizabeth Gillies]
You can bet! We watched the moon
Come to the Mardi Gras
Like a painted balloon at the Mardi Gras
Romance was ours beneath Brazilian stars
Love is there in the air, everywhere that you are

[Chorus: Elizabeth Gillies & Seth MacFarlane]
Make your sweetest dreams
For two come true, come to the Mardi Gras

[Verse 3: Elizabeth Gillies, Seth MacFarlane & Both]
Then something new came to Rio one night
A brand new kind of music woke 'em up like dynamite
Everybody came to see and they made like jubilee
Jazz was added to the samba, here's how it came to be

[Verse 4: Seth MacFarlane & Elizabeth Gillies]
In New Orleans, I heard a Dixie band
They were jumping like beans at the Mardi Gras
I paid the bill, and I brought them to Brazil
When they played this parade, they were made in Brazil
Now each swingin' Carioca goes for broke in Mocha Ville
(One lump no cream!)
[Verse 5: Elizabeth Gillies, Seth MacFarlane & Both]
That big fat moon (That sassy moon)
Jumps at the Mardi Gras (Jumps at the Mardi Gras)
When the riverboat tune hits that oom pah, pah (Pah pah, pah pah pah pah, pah pah pah)
It's sweet when there's a Dixie beat
Love is there in the air
Everywhere lovers meet

[Chorus: Elizabeth Gillies & Seth MacFarlane]
Make your sweetest dreams
For two come true, come to the Mardi Gras

[Outro: Elizabeth Gillies & Seth MacFarlane]
Louisiana comes to Copacabana
At the swingin' party known as Mardi Gras
