  • You come into this country
    You cant get real jobs
    Boats, and boats, and boats of you
    Go home you fuckin slobs
    Sellin hot dogs on the corner
    Sellin papers in the street
    Pushing, pulling, digging, sweating
    Where you come from must be beat

    You always make us wait
    You are the ones we hate
    You can't communicate
    SPEAK ENGLISH OR DIE!!!!

    You dont know what I want
    You dont know what I need
    Why must I repeat myself,
    Can't you fuckin read?
    Nice fuckin accent
    Why can't you speak like me?
    What's that dot on your head,
    Do you use it to see?

    You always make us wait
    You are the ones we hate
    You can't communicate
    SPEAK ENGLISH OR DIE!!!! Writer/s: CHARLIE L BENANTE, DANIEL LILKER, SCOTT IAN, WILLIAM MASSEY
