lyrics
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Just flew in from Albuquerque
Feelin’ fresh and oh so perky
Gobblin’ round our town
Walking down Porter Street
Flapping those wings, tapping those feet
Looking much too cute to eat
Whistlin’ a happy tune
Eating some Fluff to stay real strong
Atop Spring Hill Fred sings a song
The neighborhood dogs like to bark along
With their new turkey friend
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Just flew in from Albuquerque
Feelin’ fresh and oh so perky
Gobblin’ round our town
All Fred’s cousins live in Brookline
Fred’s in Somerville having a great time
Going to Honk! Fest, playing in a drum line
Fred supports the arts
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Just flew in from Albuquerque
Feelin’ fresh and oh so perky
Gobblin’ round our town
Going to a movie at the Somerville Theatre
Putting a quarter in your expired meter
Helping old ladies cross the street
First in line to volunteer for ArtBeat
Fred goes local to spend his cash
Fred does the mash...the Monster Mash
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Just flew in from Albuquerque
Feelin’ fresh and oh so perky
Gobblin’ round our town
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Please don’t make Fred into jerky
Keep Fred happy, keep Fred perky
Somerville is Fred’s home
Fred, Fred, the Somerville Turkey
Fred’s real fun, Fred’s real quirky
Don’t go back to Albuquerque
Somerville is your home
