Aus Rotten Xenophobia Letras:
Restricitng immigration won't solve this country's
problems The refugees are only our leaders
scapegoats Bigoted politicians claim that
immigration is unemployment's source So the INS
are given unending power to enforce The
restrictions regulated by immigrants descendants
Who project open border policies as national
resentments Unwilling to provide the same
opportunities they've been given To desperate
refugees whose passage has been forbidden By a
government who's often reponsible for their
countries situation But they just intensify the
suffering by restricting immigration Denying
immigrants from crossing a line They're closing
the borders like they've closed their minds
Regardless of citizenship we're all the same No
human is illegal like governments claim Exploiting
foreign markets with capitalisms principles NAFTA
was created to benefit the multinationals Big
business cuts their expenses with their sweatshop
wage Keeping foreign labor in an economical cage
They've created the incentive to ship the jobs out
of this country Making Americans more receptive to
minimum wage and bigotry The government maintains
approval when their fault remains concealed
They'll just find another scapegoat after they

pass the anti-immigration bill Denying immigrants
from crossing a line They're closing the borders
like they've closed their minds Regardless of

another tactic in which our leaders have managed
To redirect blame to someone other than themselves
or big business The media lap up the reports of
increasing poverty, unemployment, welfare and
Government aid supposedly caused by refugees while
largely ignoring the Countless reports of rapes,
beating, and general harassment by the INS and US
border patrols Not to mention American servicemen
Actually crossing the Mexican border to rape women
or New York police Officers gang raping a Haitian
immigrant with a plunger These atrocities Occur
because xenophobia has instilled the thinking that
refugees are Problems and not people...Xenophobia
kills Patriotism plants the seeds of ignorance and
hate Destroying the people and all compassion to
protect the state Every person is entitled to
live, no human should be banned It only benefits
the wealthy to own a piece of land It only divides
the people by the borders, by the countries It's
only another obstacle blocking any chance of
equality We've got to smash their walls our
efforts must persist We've got to wake the people
up to see what they've dismissed People are not
expendable, government is People are not
expendable, government is People are not
expendable, government is People are not
expendable, government is
