Immigration Man



There I was at the immigration scene

Shining and feeling clean

Could it be a sin?

I got stopped by the immigration man

He says he doesn't know if he can

Let me in



Let me in, immigration man

Can I cross the line and pray

I can stay another day

Let me in, immigration man

I won't toe your line today

I can't see it anyway, hey-y



There he was with his immigration face

Giving me a paper chase

But the son was coming

'Cause all at once he looked into my space

And stamped a number over my face

And he sent me running



Won't you let me in, immigration man

Can I cross the line and pray

I can stay another day

Won't you let me in, immigration man

I won't toe your line today

I can't see it anyway



Here I am with my immigration form

It's big enough to keep me warm

When a cold wind's coming

So go where you will

As long as you thing you can

You'd better watch out - watch out for the man

Anywhere you're going



Come on and let me in, immigration man

Can I cross the line and pray

Take your fingers from the tray

Let me in, irritation man

I won't toe your line today

I can't see it anyway
