The Lyrics
The flip side to Royce Miller's 2006 parody.
Thirty-six degrees and
Comin' up on midnight
Southwest of McAllen
They're startin' to unite
Poor kids and coyotes
Tryin' to dig a hole
Tunnel with a pickaxe and
Squeeze in like a mole
Down on the border:
How indiscreet!
Caravan of poor folks are prayin'
For asylum, and relief
Customs blasts a gas load
And people take off and run
That's our way to keep out
All the rapists, drugs and guns!
"Poor Me" shuts the budget down
Causing chaos anew
Kelly goes, "You stupid ass,"
Mattis is all, "F.U."
Loud Don supporters
Pout and retweet
Mitchy and the Faux Boys are paying,
In a pickle, as they freak
(Instrumental break: Pelosi on gavel, Trump on desk-pounding, Schumer doing the Smurf)
You don't need a passport
Come here on a boat
Or if you got a fake ID
It's time to rock the vote
Thousand miles of border
Never seen a wall
Immigrants and refugees
Welcome to you all!
Down on the border
Crowdin' the streets
Pitifully poor folks are prayin'
For a little amnesty!
South of the border
Moms tenderly
Tell their babies, "Go forth, I'm stayin',
Here's a nickel, till we meet..."
Down at the coroner
Shoutin' their grief
Desolated poor folks are blamin'
Mr. Twitter Twit-in-Chief
Down on the border
Stout industries
Hirin' at the maquiladoras
Fifty pesos, twice a week
Sounds of the mourners
Not in defeat
Liberated voices proclaimin'
Wade the Rio Grande, repeat
Clouds 'cross the border
ICE, CDP
Waitin' for an invoice for payment
While the rich go, "Tax relief!"
Comin' up on midnight
Southwest of McAllen
They're startin' to unite
Poor kids and coyotes
Tryin' to dig a hole
Tunnel with a pickaxe and
Squeeze in like a mole
Down on the border:
How indiscreet!
Caravan of poor folks are prayin'
For asylum, and relief
Customs blasts a gas load
And people take off and run
That's our way to keep out
All the rapists, drugs and guns!
"Poor Me" shuts the budget down
Causing chaos anew
Kelly goes, "You stupid ass,"
Mattis is all, "F.U."
Loud Don supporters
Pout and retweet
Mitchy and the Faux Boys are paying,
In a pickle, as they freak
(Instrumental break: Pelosi on gavel, Trump on desk-pounding, Schumer doing the Smurf)
You don't need a passport
Come here on a boat
Or if you got a fake ID
It's time to rock the vote
Thousand miles of border
Never seen a wall
Immigrants and refugees
Welcome to you all!
Down on the border
Crowdin' the streets
Pitifully poor folks are prayin'
For a little amnesty!
South of the border

One set of ones *might* say something about a parody. Multiple (obsessive) sets of ones definitely just says something about the disturbed individual giving them
What's going to be REALLY hilarious is in February when you Democrat-voting oxygen thieves take to slaughtering each other in food riots after your EBTs stop working.
Red, get off the reds and take some 'ludes. Then enroll in anger management classes.
Just because you leftards are meth-heads doesn't mean everyone else is, Doc.
It's better than reviews say. It just isn't extreme enough.
A right-winger accusing leftists of being meth-heads. Next, he'll accuse us of having Southern accents, driving pickup trucks, and marrying our cousins.
Don't knock cousin marriage until you've tried it, Mikey.
COUSIN marriage? Everyone knows daddy-daughter incest is best! Homosexuals do what they want; how is incest different?
Well, SOMEBODY is buying all that crystal meth in New Jersey, i.e. the Garbage State; and that hardly looks like a red state to us.
The top 3 best selling vehicles in America are pick-ups. Do you personally know someone that owns one?
Take a look at the top 5 vehicles for buyers with annual incomes over $250,000: Ford F-Series Jeep Grand Cherokee Jeep Wrangler Lexus RX BMW X5
One of the ways incest is different from homosexuality is that there can be offspring of incestual humpings, like, say Caligula, Nero, Cladius, Kaiser Wilhelm, Joffrey the Ned-Slayer, and of course, every other Targaryan monarch. In other words, there can be problems long after the evil deed is done
Incest and pickup trucks. So THAT'S what my song was about. For some people. d;^)
