Aus Rotten - Xenophobia video free download

Lyrics:

Restricitng immigration won't solve this country's problems

The refugees are only our leaders scapegoats

Bigoted politicians claim that immigration is unemployment's source

So the INS are given unending power to enforce

The restrictions regulated by immigrants descendants

Who project open border policies as national resentments

Unwilling to provide the same opportunities they've been given

To desperate refugees whose passage has been forbidden

By a government who's often reponsible for their countries situation

But they just intensify the suffering by restricting immigration

Denying immigrants from crossing a line

They're closing the borders like they've closed their minds

Regardless of citizenship we're all the same

No human is illegal like governments claim

Exploiting foreign markets with capitalisms principles

NAFTA was created to benefit the multinationals

Big business cuts their expenses with their sweatshop wage

Keeping foreign labor in an economical cage

They've created the incentive to ship the jobs out of this country

Making Americans more receptive to minimum wage and bigotry

The government maintains approval when their fault remains concealed

They'll just find another scapegoat after they pass the anti-immigration bill

Denying immigrants from crossing a line

They're closing the borders like they've closed their minds

Regardless of citizenship we're all the same

No human is illegal like the governments claim

Creating xenophobia is another tactic in which our leaders have managed

To redirect blame to someone other than themselves or big business

The media lap up the reports of increasing poverty, unemployment, welfare and

Government aid supposedly caused by refugees while largely ignoring the

Countless reports of rapes, beating, and general harassment by the

INS and US border patrols Not to mention American servicemen

Actually crossing the Mexican border to rape women or New York police

Officers gang raping a Haitian immigrant with a plunger These atrocities

Occur because xenophobia has instilled the thinking that refugees are

Problems and not people...Xenophobia kills

Patriotism plants the seeds of ignorance and hate

Destroying the people and all compassion to protect the state

Every person is entitled to live, no human should be banned

It only benefits the wealthy to own a piece of land

It only divides the people by the borders, by the countries

It's only another obstacle blocking any chance of equality

We've got to smash their walls our efforts must persist

We've got to wake the people up to see what they've dismissed

People are not expendable, government is

People are not expendable, government is

People are not expendable, government is

People are not expendable, government is
