Meet me down by
the subway station
I've been a waiting
Well I'm through waiting for you
the polluted ground has melted though my shoes!

Well, I think I now know
why I always wheeze
Sometimes I think
that I must have
I must have been crazy
Crazy to breathe in this air, baby

Well, my skin is brown
and its cancerous, baby
Now I decided to gasp for air
while I waited on you
But now, I'm alright...

Please, the state's been taken on a ride
You know, all of this has been on our dime
Now, I hope I can buy a lung
a new fine lung
So, I'll be alright...
That's right

I believe, I believe
that I know you Mr Welch
cause you been polluting our earth and I
Well, I never did believe in you lies
Yoiu know, you sure as hell have been telling lies (Mr. Welch)

Now, I can't breathe
like I should breathe
But that's alright,
at least Mr. Welch you and your billions are alright

Please, Mr. Welch - don't waste any more time
You know what the Hudson has become on your dime
I hope you spend it with a good conscious
and that tou make it anyway to your own designs of heaven
That's alright, yes you suck for what you did to us
That's right


For those who do not know - Jack Welch was the head of General Electric (GE) for years and, consequently, is a very, very wealthy man. It has been widely alleged that GE during Mr. Welch's reign made the Hudson river very very polluted to the point that it has become a campaign to get GE to stop polluting it and clean it up. The Hudson, of course, separates Manhattan with New Jersey.

OMG!!! Just stepped in on this post & I'm LMAO.

I made a mistake getting my lunch then sitting down to eat it while reading this! What a laugh

I guess I should cancel my plans to move to NJ then?

Marissa, this one is for you.....to the tune of another great demo, Lady from the Mountain

Some call her trapped, Girlie from Garden State
And then still others say she's really posting here
Oh like her Lindsey plays hard
And wants to play harder
Then maybe then Mr. Buckingham really hears her
Really feels

Girlie from Garden State
She lives there
But she vents on the Ledge as well
But do you know the road
Or the tollbooths there...
And if you exit
You'll be gaining the chance to breathe fresh air
Emerson College beckons once
Then the turnpike turns...turns

Girlie from Garden State
Oh go from there
You know that you want out
Then you could pump your own gas
Somewhere on your car's side
Then maybe Jersey colloquialisms could make you crazy
Did she call out
Did she say, "Yo! You's alls!
Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye!"

Girlie from Garden State
Getting out...getting out
Then breathe without it
Factory burning...burning
But you're hopefully learning (at Emerson)

LMAO!!! GOOD LAWD!! I'm seriously dying over here....this is too funny. Ya know, come to think of it i've NEVER driven the turnpike on my own...I don't live anywhere near it actually but it's funny to think tht when people think of NJ, they're like TURNPIKE!!! LMAO!

HIGH FIVE!!!! Oh, and let's try to use wicked again....
I think it's wicked cool that Lindsey allows people to grab his guitar...and his @ss during the concerts...lol And it was wicked smart of Stevie to trade in the platforms for some reeboks. I mean, can you imagine how wicked her arches are after all these year? Krikey.

[darklinensuit]

I'll be in Boston for a conference next month. I'll have to practice using the word wicked as much as possible before I go.

Sorry for all the turnpike references, but when I lived back east, whenever we met somebody from Jersey, you'd always ask "Which exit?" to find out just where in Jersey.

(You used to call me wicked/I used to call you friend")

[gldstwmn]

Have fun in MA, the humidity is wicked bad this time of year. Don't forget to have some clamcakes and chowda while you're tha. Say hello to the Red Sox for me.

[darklinensuit]

Two years in Houston, I can't say I'm too intimidated by the humidity up there.
But I look forward to the chowda.

I have it on but I'm not paying attention at all.

I'd forgotten about those commercials. Who was that governor from the '80s who used to do the commercials, the one who looked like Joe Piscopo imitating David Hartman from Good Morning America? His accent was so thick. (If you don't know, make something up. Just don't tell me it was before your time. )

Well, I hate to bring this up...but okay, I will. Isn't Martha Stewart from New Jersey? FM could do a benefit for the Free Martha Defense Fund.

Hmm...I think it may have been Florio...another great governor...lol...gosh, you'd think we'd try and break the trend but nooo...lol The commericals are SO lame...the commercial they show now has the governor and his wife and their baby with a unibrow walking on the beach saying the slogan...lol... if a baby with a unibrow and the Jersey shore don't getcha here, i dunno what will....lol

I don't know, I mean, yeah, Martha & Stevie are both girlie-girls in their tastes, but Stevie calls herself a hippie. I just don't see her sympathizing a whole lot with Martha, but perhaps I'm wrong. As for Mick, he'd want a cut of the gate for any benefit. Heart of gold, that guy. (Stolen gold)

Baby with a unibrow in Jersey? I keep thinking of Laraine Newman as Connie Conehead. Wasn't she a teen with a unibrow?

And hey, living here in Texas, our governors take the cake. Molly Ivins has made a career out of their stupidity.

The only thing Martha and Stevie have in common is their hair color. Now Mick on the other hand...

Martha wears less makeup than Mick, and she wouldn't be caught dead dressed like a cheerleader on a magazine cover. And while she might condescend to sell at K-Mart, she'd never market schlock like cheap Egyptian-themed jewelry. She would have Jonathan Todd's ass nailed to the floor for damaging her reputation with her public.
