"The State I'm In" Aka "Goode Buy from Cobbs Creek Park"

Capsize, tired eyes
Collapse into clean sheets, Martinized
By bored friends' mothers who feed to release
Their trust in kids and adult defeats
Home fries ain't no surprise
Been about 17 since I realized
No dashboard is gonna stop this chin
If I take the wheel in the state I'm in
So one cheese steak and a Tastykake
Before I stop by Sears, get them to fix my brakes
All that Mopar, cement, snow, and rebar
And I just don't know how the roads are
No ballgame on a snow day
But you're gonna see something crazy anyway
Bud Dwyer's 3-5-7, the press
And another 10 ways to increase your debt

Hey, hey, what you gonna do
When the credit card people come looking for you?
Blame it on the Governor, say, "I'm from PA
"Please bill me at a later date
"And you can send it to me in Pennsylvania"

Recalls and Armor All
I swear I can see Mumia straight from the mall
Because the Camp Hill Prison doesn't hide its prize
Down in Philly the whole block's on fire
Guess they're trying to get rid of them all
Turned on the TV, can't believe what I saw
PBS, Zapatistas, the FARC
No, it's 6200 Cobbs Creek Park!

Hey, hey, what you gonna do
When the credit card people start looking for you?
Blame it on the Governor, say, "I'm from PA
"Won't you please bill me at a later date?
"You can send it to me in Pennsylvania"
