LYRICS by Don Caron
So if you hear some gunshot sounds
Don’t worry ‘cause that’s what it takes
When enforcement has to raise the stakes
All about the illegal activities of ICE in the streets and towns of the USA
Constitutional concerns are minimal
Til they’ve rounded up every dangerous criminal
You’ll be fine if you’re not among the worst of the worst
‘cause immigration has to be reversed
Well, I’m confused and so are you
And maybe the guys in ICE are too
You can judge a book just by the cover
All those protesters are undercover
Well-paid by Soros or a similar guy
Liberals are just that easy to buy
Me oh me ooh me oh my
When you can’t laugh then it’s time to cry [verse 2] Alex lived just down the street
an American citizen on the beat
He yelled at ICE, as was his right
They broke his rib and then took flight
Legal carrry means you’re in a gang
2nd amendment be damned, well dang.
That was how his cover got blown
Now they say he was a terrorist, who would have known
And maybe the guys in power are too
All’s as it is, but nothing’s as it seems
Stories turn from fiction into dreams
Don’t believe your ears, don’t believe your eyes
Or they’ll step in and bring you down to size
Lie oh lie oh lie oh lies
You can see them laughing as everyone cries [verse 3] She came once a week to clean your house
Was always quiet, you know, like a mouse
How could you have known she was one of those
Rapist, murderer, criminals
She was a DACA girl and they snatched her up
All part of their plan for a big cleanup
She never came across as being perverse
I guess she looked a bit too diverse
And maybe the guys in the White House are too
They cancel protections, and they’re keeping tabs
Yesterday you were legal, now you’re up for grabs
Don’t believe your ears, don’t believe your eyes
Just be docile to avoid your demise
Do-doot to-doot-doot to, to, too
If you try to fight it they will come after you [verse 4] Where does this lead? There’s a way to know.
It’s happened before, blow by blow.
You don’t even need to open a book.
You can go online and take a look
Doomed to repeat, is the saying of yore
Learning again what was learned before
Your first clue is how often they have to lie
We’ve got the best corruption that money can buy
The guys in ICE have been told what to do
Just following orders, we’ve heard that before
in violation of the oath that they swore
The gavel of justice will eventually fall
Repairs may not be possible if they try at all
Me oh me ooh me oh my
They will no longer laugh and the rest of us will heave a sigh
