You know what's going to happen when you park your fool Cadillac in a crosswalk in the Longwood Medical Area? A turkey's going to jump on your car and peck at it mercilessly, as Tom Wheaton observed.
As I was goin’ down the road
With a tired back and a heavy load
I stepped off a curb and heard a crack
And I said goodbye to my old backpack Turkey in the crosswalk, turkey on the car
Peckin and a scratchin cuz he’s parked against the law
Twistin up a tune called Turkey in the Crosswalk
You can leave it on the curbside
Like the ISD’ll do
You can leave it at the T stop
If you’ve got a week or two
You can leave it in the driveway
You can take it to the mall
But if you park it in a crosswalk
Angry turkeys come to call

This Longwood turkey is clearly obsessed with pedestrian etiquette.
