Letra de Borderlines
The pursuit of happiness is in great demand Immigrants run across the border to escape their 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 Laser turrets, electric fence and a moat Send out ships to sink refugee boats Lock the door and swallow the key Make the standard of living better for you and for 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 opportunity Think again, those rules don't apply To all the people stuck on the other side of the borderline Hey....but you're doing fine Laser turrets, electric fence and a moat Send out ships to sink refugee boats Lock the door and swallow the key Make the standard of living better for you and for me A man with four children dreams of a better day When he can make the hunger pains of his children go away Sneaks across the border gets a job, finally has reason to believe A bus ride home with shackles is what he receives If the choices to make all were mine we'd be living in a world without a single borderline
