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

Way back when in 76, when disco ruled the night
The Declaration of Independence gave unalienable rights
Yeah unalienable rights
That all men may have a mustache
Women may have one too
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of facial hair
...and mirror balls and dancing too
Yeah and mirror balls and dancing too
Old King George was angry
He hated that new disco sound
So he sent over some redcoats
To tear that dance hall down
Yeah, tear that dance hall down
John Hancock did the hustle
Sam Adams the electric slide
Thomas Jefferson at the Bus Stop
...and King he nearly died
Yeah the king he nearly died
So now Fireworks fill the sky up
Everyone has a barbecue
The children get the day off from school
The roof’s on fire too
...but we don’t need no water dude
