Oh we are the mighty empire. We pick and choose our guests.
Europeans welcome here but Mexicans are pests.
We're all in love with family as long as it's our own
The Mexicans who come to work must leave their children home.

CHORUS:
Stand up and fight for immigrant rights
Healthcare for all instead of war
Stand up and shout that in God's sight
We're all created equal, not some less & others more.

I have a friend who's Mexican. She brightens up my day
She wishes she could visit home but danger marks the way
War profiteers suck all the cash and we see that as fine
A MEX'can crossing the Rio Grand is a very serious crime.

Chorus

FRE-E-E traders like to build a wall so ONly the MOney gets THRU
If ALL the riches TRAvel north the PEOple will come TOO
CO-ORN used to be a source of life and rural people thrived
But NOW it's a comMOdity. You GOTta go NORTH to surVIVE.

Chorus
