The Lyrics
This parody explores two extreme perspectives of the U.S. immigration debate. Kanye West's rap segments portray the concerns of a Border Patrol Officer. Katy Perry's lines reveal the feelings of an empathetic U.S. Citizen. How differently will these two parties treat an illegal alien when she sets her sights on their United States?
[BORDER OFFICER]
I got a problem, ma’am
With your sneaky jank.
You try'na dig a hole?
This ain’t no Shawshank.
I’m Lieutenant--
Wait a minute--
Hop up in it--
I will hold you in this tru-u-uck
‘Til you’ve given u-u-up.
You crossed into a battle zone:
Principle v. Poverty
You were not invited
To the wealth of our humanity.
They callin me the Doberman
I’m sniiiffin for coca
Makin sure this Chiclet ain’t
Livin vida loca.
[U.S. CITIZEN]
You’re so polarizing
Like the Lincoln issue
C'n we even discuss you?
Such an-tagonizing
Politicians gloating
Rhetoric is bloating.
Some say, be afraid
"They will try to rob you!
Desp'rate to de-job you!"
Your tongue, is rolling
They don’t understand you.
It’s like a whole nother world
(The same range of timezones)
It’s well worth a try
Tell your family you’ll miss them
then kiss them goodbye!
Cross me, cro-cro-cross me
Invade me like the border
Keep me like a hoarder.
Date me, da-da-date me
Wrap me ‘round your finger
Then they’ll let you linger.
Girl, you’re an alien
Your accent’s foreign.
You’re super-national
Ex-tra domestical.
Their force is super high-tech
Wanna feel their power?
Draw it from a taser.
Your tears, arn’t magic
Ev'ry tale is tragic.
It’s like a whole nother world
(Within walking distance)
With hopes lifted high
Give coyotes some green
Then let them be your guide!
Cross me, cro-cro-cross me
Invade me like the border
Keep me like a hoarder.
Date me, da-da-date me
Wrap me ‘round your finger
Then they’ll let you linger.
Girl, you’re an alien
Your accent’s foreign.
I’ll be your prison call
Ex-tra domestical.
Call me sentimental
We could be parental
I’m wishing on a star.
If there’s a moat you can ford it
If there’s a bail I’ll afford it
Or squeeze you through the bars...
BARS!
[OFFICER]
I work the coast with some guards
My man drive a speedboat, his name is Lars.
Liberty piñata: gotta hit par
Sealin borders up where they be aja-a-a-ar.
Found ya Nemo, with El Niño
Climbin MY fence, Dora ref’rence!
I’ll single-file you, while we revile you
The heartland rejected you
see THEY tell me hwat to do!

It’s just a southern drawl
Ex-tra domestical!

Lotsa great lines here - 'ain't livin vida loca'; 'de-job you'; 'extra-domestical'. Excellently done!
Very rhymish and wordly!
Nice work.
W/X: Really liked the line "Invade me like the border" - sorta kinky, in a Katy kinda way (not in a Kanye way though!).
This was very deep into the topic...a little bit beyond my comprehension (like the Finding Nemo reference, a bit of a headscratcher for me). But I give you high marks for taking this topic on in a sophisticated way that matches the OS topic with a twist.
(ABC) There were a few pacing stumbles here and there (particularly in Kanye's first part), the repeated choruses worked against you, particularly given how short the lines are in this song. But otherwise this was still pretty good, it just coulda used a bit of polishing. 555!
I agree with Peregrin with the "Invade me like the border" line...that could probably go in a Katy Perry song just like that haha. Nice work!
I kind of agree with Agrimorfee on this one. This is a great OS but this parody left me a tad confused... Sorry buddy.
(ABC) Being unversed in politics really affected my capability to understand what your talking about with this parody. Sure I got the gist, but I know I probably missed out on some great jokes. From what I did understand, I thought it was funny, and had some great lines, particularly the "invade me like the border" one. I liked it, but not as much as someone who knows politics would. Sorry I'm so uneducated :(
