[Verse 1]
Hard working people from another land
Looking for a little more
Coming to this country for a helping hand
You know they sail their ships upon these shores
[Verse 2]
And they are lookin' for a freedom
That most of us don't appreciate
But you know, man, we can't let them in
Cause the government's full of racial hate
[Verse 3]
And then they got the nerve to say
They be takin' our culture away
Even though our ancestors tried
To do the same to the aborigine
[Verse 4]
Seems strange to me, man, strange to me
Don't it seem strange to you?
That a country founded on immigration is so damned racist too
[Verse 5]
And I say home
Home is where the heart is
Yeah, home
[Verse 6]
And then they got the nerve to say
They be takin' our jobs away
Even though half the jobs
That we're working are owned from overseas
[Verse 7]
And the other half of the companies
Yes, yes, that they say, that we rightly own
They operate on aisle three third world
That's right yeah, the sweat shop zone
[Verse 8]
And I say, I don't know what's going on
Don't know what the hell to say
The government decides on letting refugees in
And when they get here yes they are detained
[Verse 9]
And I don't know what's going on
Don't know the reason why
Why why why
We live in an educated so called democracy
Where everybody decides to believe in lies
Believe in lies
[Verse 10]
Home is where the heart is
Yeah
