Exit Here ("Breezewood")

Lyrics by Rick Horowitz

Below should be an image reminiscent of a tape player; its exact format will depent on what software your computer and your browser use. Click on what appears to be a "Play" button to hear the music. There also should be the other controls usually found on tape players.

Note that since this is not streaming audio, you will have to wait for the entire MP3 file to download before you can hear all of it. Therefore, if you are listening to it and it suddenly stops, the download is probably not complete.

Exit Here ("Breezewood")—orchestra


Verse 1:
If you should chance to go
  To scenic Pennsylvani~~~a,
There's a special place you should try,
  That sways to a highway beat.

Where life is smooth and slow,
  With just a hint of mani~~~a,
Where the juicy burgers are prime,
  The pizza's sublime: Let's eat!

Chorus 1:
Welcome back to Breezewood!
  Come stuff your face in Breezewood,
Come and feast on laughter and smiles,
  At two or three miles an hour.

The world depends on Breezewood,
  Like hungry refugees~~~ would,
So if your poor tummy's in debt,
  Get ready, get set – devour!

Verse 2:
If you should choose to roam
  Through central Pennsylvani~~~a,
There's a certain place on your way,
  [Spoken] Slow down! Spend a day – spend two!!

Just 90 miles from home,
  Amid the miscellani~~~a,
Drive a Honda, drive a Rolls-Royce,
  There's only one choice for you.

Chorus 2:
Getting off at Breezewood,
  The one way out is Breezewood,
Say goodbye to meals chic and trendy,
  DQ and Wendy call!

Help yourself to gherkins,
  Just down the road at Perkins,
Ev'rything from fishsticks to fries,
  Ol' Breezewood supplies them all.

Verse 3:
You won't forget the time
  You spend in Pennsylvani~~~a,
You can bet your mem'ries will last,
  There's no moving fast today,

So when again you roam
  Through central Pennsylvani~~~a,
On your next journey west,
  Come and savor the best–
    Come to Breezewood, P.A.!
