This is a mrdi gras indian song,The mardi Gras indians dress in very fancy costumes and compete with each other ,theysort of replace gang fighting with trying to ouf=t dress ,outdance and outsing other tribes. The flagboy carries the flag the colors of the tribe ,the spyboy keeps track of other tribes .The song pictures them taunting each other.Jockimo Fina Nay is a challenge ,it's a mock battle song. It bothers me that so many people that are into the Dead don't reall get that the dead are/were very knowledgable about all sorts of traditional and experimental music forms. I wish more Deadheads would learn more about the music styles the folks in the band love
