Jill Sobule - America Back Lyrics

Remember the garden of Eden?
Before eve hung out with that snake.
You could walk down the streets not worry bout thieves.
All the kids could go trick or treating
Then those foreigners started coming in
Like the Germans in 1790
Then the Irish arrived, the potato blight.
The neighborhood started changing
Life was better, we lived right
Life had a paler shade of white
When they say, ""we want our America back""
Our America back, our America back""
When they say, ""we want our America back""
Well, what the f*ck do they mean?

Before there was Ellis island
And that statue we got from the French
That whore's still alerting, with strangers she's flirting
Inviting them into our beds
The guineas, the coolies, the wetbacks, the reds
The Jews, now those terrorists
And who let in the woman who looks after my kid
And the one who is cleaning my mess?
Life was so righteous, life was so clean.
Send em all back including me
When they say, ""we want our America back""
Our America back, our America back""
When they say, ""we want our America back""
Well, what the f*ck do they mean?

Before the gays had their agenda, before the slaves were free
Before that man from Kenya took the presidency

When they say, ""we want our America back""
Our America back, our America back""
When they say, ""we want our America back""
Well, what the f*ck do they mean?
