Philadelphia
Atom and His Package Lyrics

I sit at rittenhouse park and see a guy from time cycle give the finger to a passing motorist and it kind of makes me smile
I enjoy watching people express their emotions, even if it's not entirely appropriate. It's just part of the culture here in Philadelphia.

this is the city of brotherly love and crime and we only bombed our own city once, once
Philadelphia is a place of contrasts - we may call it the city of brotherly love, but we also have our fair share of crime. And yes, we did have a bombing incident here once, but let's not dwell on that.

I'll show you around 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
As your tour guide, I'll highlight all the best spots in the city - but I'll also warn you about the places you should avoid, especially at night. And if you're a skater, I'll point out where you're not allowed to skateboard in LOVE park.

the dialer doesn't work on any of our phones but here's the place that we call our home
We may have some technical difficulties, but we still consider this city our home - it's where we belong.

philly's the place where the mummers are weird and I do not think the Phillies have won in years
The mummers parade is a unique Philadelphia tradition that showcases our quirky side. And sadly, our baseball team hasn't had much luck lately.

I beg Mayor Rendell and the cops on the street to have mercy on me and Jen and please blow up South Street
I'm half-joking when I say this, but let's be real - South Street can be a bit of a nightmare sometimes, and we wouldn't mind if it just disappeared. But of course, we don't really want it to blow up.

The Philadelphia Parking Authority can go fuck its own face and yeah sure we got our problems in dealing with race
We're not exactly fans of the Parking Authority around here, and we recognize that there are still issues with race relations that need to be addressed.

the statue of William Penn ... sitting all ... well he's kind of a loner if you look at it from the right angle it looks like he has a boner
The statue of William Penn is a bit of an oddity - if you look at it from a certain angle, it can appear as though he's...well, you know. But even if it's unintentional, it adds to the city's quirky charm.

Philly's the place where the mummers are weird and i do not think the Sixers have wonin years
I may have mentioned the mummers earlier, but it's worth repeating - they're just that weird. And as for our basketball team, well, we haven't had much success there either.

I beg Mayor Rendell and the cops on the beat to have mercy on me and Jen and please blow up South Street
Okay, I'll admit it - we really don't like South Street. But we're not actually asking for it to be blown up, we're just venting our frustrations a bit.

hey Brian, did you know Cinderrella's from Philadelphia, and we have uh Independence Hall here too yeah but we also got Frank Rizzo and Delaware Avenue YEAH!
Just a few fun facts about Philadelphia - did you know Cinderella was from here? And of course, we're proud of our historic landmarks like Independence Hall. But we also have some...less than desirable features, like former mayor Frank Rizzo and the less-than-ideal conditions on Delaware Avenue.

Philadelphia, get to know us Philadelphia, get to know us
All in all, Philadelphia is a unique and interesting place with plenty to offer. We invite you to come and explore the city for yourself.
