Immigrant Song Too - King Prawn

I come from a land

So far away

I’ve come to make a living

Then get away

Better prospects here

That’s what they say

Better people here

That’s what they say

Stepping off the boat

With my suitcase in my hand

Be damned by the eyes

Of the immigration man

The purpose of my visit

Is questioned and doubted

Suspicion fails

They don’t believe I was invited

Feeling all alone

There ain’t no place to call home

I’m here from a land

Far from my family

Brought on the wave

Of new opportunity

Come and help the motherland

Is what they said

Suitcase in my hand

To a foreign land

Stepping down the street

Trying to find my own two feet

Turned away by landlords

Who refuse to let me in

A boarder in a hostel

I’m caged like an animal

The odds were stacked against me

For my own survival

Feeling all alone

There ain’t no place to call home

They’re clearing the way

For a deportation order

They wanna put me on

The first plane home tomorrow

But in their haste

They overlooked my visa

Saddened faces

See that I am Bona Fida

There ain’t no place to call home
