Bowie State University ("Bowie State") is a public university located on 355½ acres (1.4 km²) in unincorporated Prince George's County, Maryland, United States, north of the suburban city of Bowie. Bowie State is part of the University System of Maryland. Bowie State is Maryland's oldest historically black university and one of the ten oldest in the country. Bowie State is a member-school of the Thurgood Marshall College Fund.
BSU has 20 undergraduate majors, 20 master’s programs, two doctoral programs, 10 graduate certificate programs and 2 certificates of advanced study in disciplines as diverse as computer science, education, human resource development, organizational communication, and nursing. In partnership with the University of Maryland University College, Bowie State University became the first historically black university to include overseas studies. It was also the first university in the nation to offer a bachelor's degree in pedology. Programs include a rare doctoral degree in education leadership, a program for education administrators.
Bowie State is a passenger rail station on the MARC Penn Line between Washington, D.C., Baltimore, MD and Perryville, MD. This station is also on the southern section of the Northeast Corridor; however Amtrak does not stop at this station. The station adjoins Bowie State University, hence the name.
Bowie State Station was built in 1989 as a replacement for the original Bowie Station built by the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company, and acquired by the Pennsylvania Railroad, located 1.1 miles south of modern Bowie State. Not many years before, a station named Jericho Park was located on the same site as Bowie State, but it was discontinued by the early 1980s when the (Old) Jericho Park Road grade crossing was eliminated by the Laurel-Bowie Road overpass, before the MARC name was coined. In 1992, the former Bowie station was purchased by the City of Bowie, and transformed into the Huntington Railroad Museum.

At first I told myself
I need my head inspected
I notice little things
Same t-shirt and sun glasses
Then it got weirder see
She cut her hair like me
She bought a red guitar
Kept driving round in my car
I'm kissing her and she
She slams me against the wall
She crashed into a bus
Chasing some super model
She's analysed my smile
She's memorised my phone book
She always wears my clothes
Her favourite words are WOOOHOO!(F**k Off)
She looks like, does like, sounds like me
She's stealing my identity
And I'm begging you
Somebody notice me somebody notice
I'm fading away here
What have I got to do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I'm saying something's wrong
She's out back playing soccer
She used to do ballet
Now she's a heavy smoker
She's so obsessed with me
That she stands up to pee
And now her stupid games
Have started taking over
Don't need no special help
Don't need to see a doctor
I know you're worried but
I'm telling you just watch her
It's like she's cracked my code
Knows things I've never spoke of
She wants sex all the time
and still find time to **** off
She looks like, just like, sounds like me
She's stealing my identity
And I'm begging you!
Somebody notice me somebody notice
I'm fading away here
What have I got to do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I'm not joking
She won't stop provoking me
I'm going under
What have I got to do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I'm in the loony bin
Wearing a pale pink nighty
The nurse comes through the door
And whispers so politely
"You're boyfriends here to see you
Look pretty and take a bath
I love his silly band
Can I get his autograph?"
She looks like, does like, sounds like me
She's stealing my identity
And I'm begging you!
Somebody notice me somebody notice
I'm fading away here
What have I got to do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I'm not joking
She won't stop provoking me
I'm going under
What have I got to do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be
She wants to be
