Borderlines

The Pursuit of happiness
is in great demand
Immigrants run across the border
to escape thier homeland
they want to be like you and me,
to be free
You want them out,
want armed guards on the borders
You're already
in now you want restraining orders.
You won't let them be like you and me,
to be free
Lazer Turrets,
electronic fence,
and a moat
Send the ships to sink refugee boats
Lock the door and swallow the key
make the standard of living
better for you and me.

We all were lucky,
were born here by chance
grew up listening
to the same old song and dance
this is the land of oppurtunity
Ha, think again you're rules don't apply
to all those people
born on the other side
of the borderline
Hey but you're doin' fine

Lazer Turrets,
electronic fence,
and a moat
Send the ships to sink refugee boats
Lock the door and swallow the key
make the standard of living
better for you and me.
Yeah!

A man with dreams of a better day
when he can make
the hunger pangs of his childen go away,
sneaks across the border gets a job,
finally has a reason to believe
a truck ride home
in shackles is what he recieves

If the choices to make all were mine
we'd be livin in a world
without a single borderline. (Repeat)
