Carver Townie Tune

My favorite morning radio station WROR with Lauren & Wally is having a contest. One one the morning team guys, Tom Doyle, does parodies of songs and local towns -- called Tom's Townie Tunes. They decided to have listeners submit "Townie Tune" songs of their own about their own towns, with the grand prize being $5000 and having Tom Doyle record it and play it on air.

OK -I can do that (and could really use the 5 grand!!!)

(sing to the tune on Jimmy Buffet’s Margeritaville)

Livin’ near the Cape
Way down route 58
Watching the tourists at King Richards Faire
The traffic is a pain
Down by Savery Lane
Pickup trucks of all sizes are all we own here

Wasting away our day down here near Edaville
All our houses surrounded by bogs
Some locals complain that no one knows our real name
well it's CARVER
and no, it's NOT on Cape Cod

I don’t know the reason
Our taxes are squeezin’
Now no one who’s from here could ever afford
but we’ve got 20 sub shops
And one Chinese restaurant
With this kind of nightlife no wonder we’re bored

Wasting a whole days pay down here at Edaville
Trying to get my family a ride on the train
Some people say the Lights look good in the snow
All I know
Our winter’s nothing but rain

Over there at the gun club
It’s not even a good pub That's too bad,
maybe all the zealots would just stay in there
Our Catholic Church filling
The old Star Market building
If our God's in a strip mall we haven’t a prayer

Wasting away a day down here near Edaville
Waiting for those cranberries to float
Some people say we’ve got some old gov’nors name
But I know
We have no reason to gloat

Yes and
Some people complain theres chemicals, noise, and fog
Why’d they buy
A house by the bog
