Manomet (On The 3rd Of July)

Manomet on the 3rd of July
A million fireworks lighting up the sky
People packed like sardines on the beach
No place on god's green earth where I'd rather be
Feels like the whole world is blowing up tonight
Manomet on the 3rd of July
 
The rest of the country waits until the 4th
In Manomet we celebrate the night before
With bonfires blazing up and down the coast
In the name of independence tonight anything goes
There's a current of excitement running through the town tonight
Manomet on the 3rd of July
 
And the beachfront homes are jammed with people trying to get a better view
And down the coast there's a line of flagpoles streaming old glory's red, white and blue
 
And after all the families have gone on home
The beach turns into a battle zone
With gangs of kids in drunken revelry
The cops are out in full force in case the natives get a little too free
There's bound to be some trouble, there's bound to be some fights
Manomet on the 3rd of July
 
Feels like the whole world is blowing up tonight
Manomet on the 3rd of July
