SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Challenge:  The 'song subject' for the great Easter Bonnet(?) Special Challenge was this news story -- DATELINE: GRETNA, Louisiana -- The debate was serious.  The vote unanimous.  The Gretna City Council says it's now legal in Louisiana to throw women's underwear from Carnival floats.  "So we're pro-panties -- it's on the record," joked one city councilman.  However, it is still illegal to throw anything that is ". . . lewd or lascivious and includes, but is not limited to, condoms and inflatable paraphernalia."   The panty-throwing issue was pushed by protesting parade organizers.  "If panties are . . . vulgar, why are they exposed in every department store in the nation?" asked one of the captains of the Elks Krewe of Gretna.  Another Mardi Gras group captain firmly agreed.  "Panties have been a legitimate throw for Mardi Gras for years," he said.


The Ladies Of The Mardi Gras by kat/katlaughing

They are tarted up in plumage bright
Above the crowds they proudly prance and strut
The clothes they wear are awfully tight
As they float in the Mardi Gras parade.

Chorus:
Oh, the ladies of the Mardi Gras
Since they're all for equal-i-tee
Invite their studly brothers, too,
Their intimates to flaunt and see!

They have traveled all the city streets
Thrown panties, bras and all to the wind
'Til the east and west...they meets!
And their privates are air dried and bare!

Chorus:

Orgy? Is this then what it's come to,
A Licentious silken a'tossing?
At parade's end, clothed tushies are few?
Next day at church all are true confessors!

Chorus
