New England
(the coolest song to sing no matter what state you're driving through!)

See, I come from Boston.
I'm gonna tell you about how I love New England.
It's my favorite place.
I've been all around the world, but I love New England best.
I might be prejudiced.
But it's true, I love New England best.

Well, now...

You know, ladies and gentlemen, I've already been to Paris, I already been to Rome
And what did I do but miss my home?
I have been out west to Californ'.
But I miss the land where I was born.
I can't help it.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.

I have seen old Israel's arid plain.
It's magnificent, but so's Maine.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.

now if you like Camden in North London
we got that spirit here in Allston
now many people ask "where you from?"
with a heartfelt smile i say "from Boston"
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.

Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, I love New England.
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England.

I'm eating some sunflower seeds and was intrigued by the directions on the back of the packet. But more exciting than that was their ad campaign.

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'RE A SEEDER!
Seeders are unique. They're cool, confident, independent, active, and hard working. They know that eating DAVID Sunflower Seeds makes what they do more enjoyable. Things are better with DAVID because they're a snack and an activity. Experience SNACKTIVITY.

Well, now that my self esteem has been lifted and I feel thoroughly brainwashed and stronger in my vocabulary skills, I'm going to go write a paper and snackercise...or something like that.
