Native Bostonians Unable To Defend Land From Invading College Students

This headline over at the Onion the other day reminds me of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones song They Came to Boston.

they came to Boston on their vacation
they came, they saw, they annoyed me
they saw it all, what! Fanueil Hall! It’s best if they just avoid me
rented a car to see the sights they found the Hub confusing
looked for the Swan Boats In Mattapan well, I find that real amusing
I was here before they came. I’ll be here long after
don’t want to share, but it seems clear
that I’m gonna have to
they came to Boston for an education live in the dorms, join a frat
jam my bars and subway cars now, what the fuck is that?
spend year one having fun and causing aggravation
spending daddy’s cash on a toga bash when the hell’s graduation?
I was here before they came I’ll be here long after
don’t want to swear, but it seems clear
that I’m gonna have to
aww fuck
I was here before they came I’ll be here long after
don’t want to share, but it seems clear that I’m gonna have to
I was here before they came I’ll be here long after
don’t want to share, but it seems clear that I’m gonna have to
They came to Boston.

For those unfamiliar with The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, their early albums on the Taang! label rule.
