Philadelphia

I sit at Rittenhouse Park and see a guy from TimeCycle
Give the finger to a passing motorist, and it kinda makes me smile
This is the City of Brotherly Love and Crime
And we only bombed our own city once, one time
I'll show you 'round the city and where you can't go after dark
And if skating's your thing, I'll show you where you cannot skate in LOVE Park
The dialer doesn't work on any of our phones
But here's the place that we call our home

And Philly's the place where the Mummers are weird
And I do not think the Phillies have won in years
I beg Mayor Rendell and the cops on the street
To have mercy on me and Jen and please blow up South Street

The Philly Parking Authority can go fuck its own face
And yeah, sure, we got our problem in dealing with race
The statue of William Penn stands on City Hall
Well, he's kind of a loner
If you look at him from the right angle, it looks like he has a boner

I told you, Philly's the place where the Mummers are weird
And I do not think the Sixers have won in years
I beg Mayor Rendell and the cops on the beat
To have mercy on me and Jen and please blow up South Street

Hey Brian, you know Cinderella's from Philadelphia?
And we have, uh, Independence Hall here, too
Yeah, but we also got Frank Rizzo and Delaware Avenue
Yeah!
