Hotel Arizona
Immigrant:
On a dark desert highway, staying just out of sight
Just like White House crashers, I don't have an invite
Up ahead in the distance, just past the cactus and sage
I know I can find a brand new job, and I'll work minimum wage
Walking inside the border, a million stars out tonight
I was thinking to myself, this place is heaven if you are just white
Then I saw a big searchlight, it was headed my way
I was spotted by a border guard, and then I heard him say
Guard:
Welcome to the state of Arizona
Have your papers please, or you'll have to leave
There isn't much room in the state of Arizona
If you're darker than George Hamilton
Immigrant:
Would you stop Obama, say his race is impure?
Guard:
Last week I stopped someone named, Sonia Sotomayor
Immigrant:
Let me check my pockets, I belong here of course
I will show you my proof now, if you will show me yours
Welcome to my homeland, I was born here
I've been here, five thousand years
We've fought illegals too, since 1492
