Subject: Lyr Add: COUNTY LINE (parody of I WALK THE LINE)
Back in 2000, we came up with this parody of IWtL -
COUNTY LINE (Tim/Nancy Weil)
Takoma Park is a city unified With a single set of rules to abide Our jurisdiction no longer us divides We're doing fine....we moved the line
We've kept a close watch on this county line We've lived in PG County most the time Now they're tearing down the old street signs We're doing fine....we moved the line
You see more people in the local parks They say it's safer walking after dark Police tell us there will be a drop in crime We're doing fine...we moved the line
Today we're living in Montgomery As a part of this new community The zoning maps will show a new design We're doing fine...we moved the line
They say this town's full of radicals and kooks Who boycott lawn mowers, Burma Shave and nukes From time-to-time we've been known to organize Now we've combined....two county lines
Takoma Park is a city unified With a single set of rules to abide Our jurisdiction no longer us divides We're doing fine....we moved the line
