I’m a big bird
much bigger than you
and this is my rock
so what are you doing
invading my space
you’re not like me
you’re another race
probably lower and lesser than I
so I’m just wondering why
you think I might
share my place
the world of my making, my very own space
with a pauper who’s homeless
broke and without
employment or even a family or spouse
what kind of a bird are you anyway
you’re not even friendly
so what’s that you say?
You want to live here
and learn my way?
To share in the good life
The American Way?
OK... I’m a good guy
as Americans are
We’ll take you and love you
and let you go far
but one thing you mustn’t
ever do
is betray your new rock
my brother if you do
The wrath of the free world
will rain upon you
we’ve no room for traitors
or those who would be
rulers of our homeland
the land of the free...
