before being thrown out the window
walk out the door
being persona non-grata
is a dream no more
all languages are foreign there
except for Anglo-Saxon
but if you were born
on that side of the wall
keep out or let yourself back in
you can not be imprisoned
having committed no crime
having paid all taxes
not liable to a fine
go to where healthcare is free
where life has liberty
and with your ancestors be
as cancer consumes the American brain
flip the switch, pull the plug
board the next train
bound for glory
in a world away from
the death of democracy
overseas
where no language is foreign
