I'm From New JerseyBy John Gorka
I'm from New Jersey
I don't expect too much
If the world ended today
I would adjust
I'm from New Jersey
No I don't talk that way
I watched too much TV
When I was young
I'm from New Jersey
My mom's Italian
I've read those mafia books
We don't belong
There are girls from New Jersey
Who have that great big hair
They're found in shopping malls
I will take you there
I'm from New Jersey
It's not like Texas
There is no mystery
I can't pretend
I'm from New Jersey
It's like Ohio
But even more so
Imagine that
I know which exit
And where I'm bound
The tolls on the parkway
They will slow you down
New Jersey people
They will suprise you
Cause they're not expected
To do too much
They will try harder
They may go further
Cause they never think
That they are good enough
I'm from New Jersey
I don't expect too much
If the world ended today
I would adjust
I would adjust
I would adjust

With the Torch, Lautenberg, and all the Democrat corruption on parade I thought this old song of John Gorka's was very appropriate.
Perhaps some of our fine FR poets can add a few appropriate verses for the current moment.

I moved here to South Jersey
From PA
Things are not as bad
As John Gorka might say
There may be a toxic waste dump
Every fourth mile
But the shorepoints are here
To give you a smile
Our politicians may be
Crooked in every way
But nothing a nice bribe
Won't fix in a day
(Oooh, that was awful. I'm not a poet, and I know it).
To: Tired of Taxes
LOL -- I loved that! Hehehehehehehe

LOL! Thank you so much for the lyrics!
To: SevenofNine
I just checked. From the names of the "Justices", there are 91 letters, 35 of which are vowels. Is that typical of New Jersey?

Here Be My Gansta' Rap
I from New Jersey
I don't like walkin'
I need some wheels to speed my stalkin'
I from New Jersey
I ain't no fool
I'se headed to Newark
Wid my car openin' tool.
I coulds use a Beamer
Mebbe a Benz
Jus' gotta remember
to break the EZ Pass Lens
'Dis one's no good
'dis one's a wreck
I need a fast machine
To pick up my gub'mint check
Here we go!
a working fool's car
I'll go gets my money
Thens heads over to the bar
Hey! DON"T be pullin' me over
wid' those flashing lights
I jus' borrowed this thing
I got civil rights
Soons as I make bail
I be blowing this town
It just ain't fair
The MAN is always keeping me down
