Maritime Noon Food Bank Show
December 21, 2009 1:41 PM
On Friday December 18th, Maritime Noon decamped from Studio A and made tracks to the Radio Room for a live show to celebrate the season and raise money for Maritime food banks, where we were joined by musical guests Don Ross and Brooke Miller. Stan Carew and Carmen Klassen read some seasonal stories, and a band of hardy Phone In regulars formed an impromptu choir and plunged into a special version of Jingle Bells written especially for the occasion:
"Dashing through downtown.
Parking spaces few.
Clock is ticking down.
So what else is new ?
There's one just ahead !
Now I'm feeling strange.
Can't remember where I put
My parking meter change.
Oh - Phone-in Day, Phone-in Day
Folks just need to know
When to rotate all those tires.
What helps puppies grow.
Where to track your ancestors,
How close should I mow ?
1-800-565- 1-9-4-Zero...
Through Security.
Bounding up the stairs.
Two steps at a time.
Fast as my heart dares.
Now it's well past noon.
Debbie's fingers drum.
Where's that dratted phone-in guest ?
Will he ever come ?
Phone-in Day, Phone-in Day
Folks just need to know.
How long will my furnace last ?
Help me raise my dough.
When's the time to make a will ?
How smart is a crow ?
1-800-565- 1-9-4-Zero.
Through the studio door.
Leap into the chair.
Try to keep the headphones from
Messing up my hair.
Costas gives thumbs-up.
Callers on the line.
Please turn down your radio, friend
It makes the headsets whine.
Phone-in Day, Phone-in Day
Folks just need to know.
Latex or enamel, Jim ?
What makes icebergs grow ?
How much is my china worth ?
Teach me how to sew.
1-800-565- 1-9-4-Zero.
Clock strikes one o'clock.
Tell me it's not so.
Questions still remain
From Lantz to Pubnico
From Saint John to Bedeque
But what is that you say ?
You looked outside and saw that they
Have towed my car away !
Phone-in Day, Phone-in Day
Folks just need advice
How to insulate your home
How to unstick rice
But please don't hesitate to call
Without you there's no show
1-800-565- 1-9-4-Zero.
